Fast Twitch -- Week 8 (Thursday, May 3)
Thursday p.m. short course
500 warmup
6x200 free on 2:50
1-3 descend to 90% effort (2:23, 2:14, 2:08)
4-6 pull aerobic
400 breast kick
6x100 breast pull with Zoomers on 1:45
100 easy
4x50 free on 1:30, with fast turn
200 easy
-----------------------
Today was a perfect day for aerobic distance work. After yesterday's extreme efforts, I needed a day to keep myheart rate relatively low and lactate production minimal.
I am no longer doing double workouts on Tuesday and Thursday. This is the first act of preparing to taper! The next step is cutting back on weights until May 9, when I stop doing it altogether. Taper officially starts May 10.
