i was all amped up to have time to go to the pool but then sorta fizzed out when i got there. especially during warm up. was feeling really slow and crummy with the shirt on. but once i got going on the 500s, i was a bit more into it and added an extra one.
Warm Up
500 swim
500 kick
500 drills
3x500s hypoxic 5 on 9
i think the first two went 740 and then 8ish, with the tshirt on and breathing every 5.
number 3 was added (about halfway through #2) without a shirt and breathing every 3. kind of and oxygen experiment. felt a million times faster and was able to chase down some people. i think it was right at 720 or a little bit under. which was really encouraging - to feel like i had the speed but was dragging it off with the tshirt. my stroke felt a bit wide without the shirt on. so i probably need to really be aware of my shoulders and do a few practices without it. it is a great tool though. i'm excited to shed the boardshorts too.
Cool Down
500 swim
Total: 3500
