My goal is to ensure a smooth practice, with no extra breaks or stops, but if you don't know what you are doing, or what is next, then the whole lane has to stop and reorganize, and this is especially frustrating if you are just starting to get "in the groove" of your workout.
I don't mind repeating myself-I get plenty of practice at home! This is especially important if you are leading out the lane. If you're a great kicker, you might as well lead off the lane and then there will be no one in your way! The same goes for pull sets and swim sets.Ĥ) Some of my workouts are confusing! Make sure you ask enough questions so that you know what you are supposed to be doing, and on what intervals. Five seconds is NOT waiting until the person is at the flags! Leaving 10 seconds is optimal, and if the number of people in your lane and the set allows for it, please do leave 10 seconds between you and the person in front of you.ģ) Everyone has their strengths/weaknesses, so please seed yourselves accordingly for each set. Do not start from the beginning, or you'll be doing kick when everyone else is swimming, and vice versa.Ģ) Remember to leave at least 5 seconds (watch the clock!!) between swimmers so that you have enough room to swim. Otherwise, I'm going to have to toss you out of a practice! :)ġ) If you arrive to practice late, please join in where everyone else in your lane is-ask someone where the lane is at if you have to.
Like any family (and mine is a perfect example), we are bound to have disagreements, but let's all make a conscious effort to be kind and considerate of each swimmer. I am so proud of this fact! Many clubs can't claim a fun, friendly atmosphere, but we really can. As I have said before, what I love most about B-TRAiN is that we are like a big, noisy family.
