The freestyle portions of The Big M are on the 1:30 base in short course yards, while the IM portions are swum with fins on the 1:40 base.

Each station focuses on turns and underwaters, helping swimmers to improve their speed and technique on both.<\/p>\n<p>At the first station, swimmers stand about a yard from the wall and jump off the bottom into a flip turn, allowing for turns to be practiced at a speed normally unachievable. At the next station, swimmers go to the deep end and sink to the bottom of the pool. Then, they push off of the bottom into a streamline, trying to reach the surface as quickly as possible with their kick. At the next station, swimmers dive off the blocks into a fast breakout. At the following station, swimmers do underwater kicking horizontally across the pool, alternating between flutter and dolphin kicks by length. At the final station, swimmers flip over a lane line to practice tight flip turns.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>4.

The coach then blows a whistle, indicating for the pace to be increased to a sprint. At the coach&#8217;s choosing, the whistle is blown again, and the pace is brought back down to moderate. This set can be done as social kick, encouraging racing and bonding between teammates.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>5.

For example, the first group will swim 11 lengths in short course yards, with every subsequent group decreasing by one length. After completing each of the 11 groups, decreasing by one lap every time, the swimmer will have completed a mile.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>6.
