TLog: Swim sets

Swim sessions are now more intense. Preset on drills. I still do not relish the side swim and legs only drills. The pull with buoy drill is fine. But the main set today was a step forward. Comprising merely 10x50m front crawl, with rest in between, I started to time the laps. Took about 1:27 to 1:30 minutes per 50m lap, and recovery time is under one minute. Overall time for 10 laps, including rest, was 22 min. Overall 1,600m.

Today's session was the second swim session this week. Earlier in the week, I managed to establish a good rthyme towards the end. The same for today's swim. Could feel that the hips were up, which is good. The pull drill with buoy certainly helped.

And BTW, the boys passed their bronze proficiency test today! Really happy for them.
