The faster breaststrokers can recover their arms forward, the sooner they can eliminate drag & the sooner they can create more propulsion.
But many swimmers struggle to understand how aggressive they need to be to make it happen.
Here’s a set that helps them learn how to do it.
By placing the DragSox on the elbows, swimmers have to work harder to recover forward.
T-shirts tied to the arms works as well.
Changing the kick forces them be even more aggressive and provides variation.

Then swimmers have to use those enhanced recoveries and apply them to fast and efficient swimming under pressure.
The stroke counts force them to be fast and long.
Each round they can take more strokes with the expectation that they create more speed.

Rather than simply talking to swimmers about effective recoveries, this sets forces them to make it happen while training to make it happen at the same time.

The number one ‘ability’ is availability.
If swimmers don’t come to practice, they can’t get better.
If they’re not on the team, they can’t get better.
Sessions need to be geared towards creating an experience they want to repeat, while setting them up for the future.
