3x75 desc. 1:09, 1:04, 1:09. That last time is a bit long, because the watch didnt' stop when I told it to.
16X100
1-4@1:50. 1:30, 1:34, 1:35, 1:36
5-8@1:45. 1:29, 1:31, 1:33, 1:31
9-12@1:40. 1:30, 1:32, 1:30, 1:31
13-16@1:35. 1:33, 1:33 (didn't do last 2)
The goal was to go easy for the first 4 so not to wear out by the last 4. Shooting for a time of 1:35 on the first 4 and decreasing by a couple of seconds each set of 4.
My focus was on stretching my arm out in front of me as far as possible without straining. In do so, I ignored the curve of my hand and found my hand was drifting to the surface. Perry corrected me and I switched focus to my hand/wrist.
Overall, the swimming felt good and relaxed, but not as fast as I've felt in previous workouts. That could've been due to the hand/wrist.
