Welcome to Swimming World’s Set of the Week sponsored by Commit Swimming.com! This week’s set is designed for building breaststroke endurance. A successful breaststroke depends on efficiency and tempo, and when those fall apart the results are usually painful (ask anyone who has done a 200 breast long course).
This set mixes in drill, fins, and descend work to help learn how to best approach a 200 breast and prevent the stroke from falling apart in the second half. While it does mix in some over distance breaststroke (cough — 300’s breast — cough), the set progresses in a way to also keep the focusing on ending each swim fast and with an up tempo stroke.
Check out the set below and try it with your breaststroke group!
