10 commentsI was a little gun-shy about giving this workout to my Masters group this morning. I handed it out with lots of warnings about not doing too much butterfly.
Swimming Set of the Week - April 27, 2012
Our set of the week is short, intense, and a chance to work on many things.
Butterfly - Sprinting Fly with Fins
A very short clip of video showing what your swimmers should look like when sprinting butterfly with fins. We've posted Fast Fin Fly before, but this is reinforcement... plus just some really cool body positions in this.
Butterfly - Fast Fin Fly 2
We decided to reshoot and repost this drill because when we originally posted it, there was no sound on the video. On YouTube, when people see the old version, they commonly respond that there are no flip turns in butterfly... in this drill, there are.
