This is a short pull set that uses paddles and is great to include either at the end of warm up before a main set or at the end of practice to get some bursts of speed from your swimmers. The set starts with 2 x 50\u2019s pull w\/ paddles on a pretty easy interval, with the first one fast and the second one easy. After their easy 50 swimmers will go right into a 150 pull w\/ paddles that is fast on a more challenging interval.<\/span><\/p>\n

After their first 150 they will repeat the 2 x 50\u2019s (1 fast, 1 easy) and then take off their pull buoys and finish the round the with a 150 swim w\/ paddles fast again on a challenging interval. Each round ends with a 100 easy on 2:00 before regrouping for the next round.<\/span><\/p>\n

The point of the set is really to just get your swimmers pulling fast, with the paddles just to help your swimmers feel fast and get still get their tempo up while still pulling a lot of water. This is a great set to give to your distance swimmers after a long aerobic day to test them when they\u2019re tired and teach them how to still get up and go fast when they may feel like they can\u2019t. Happy swimming!<\/span><\/p>\n
