Edge focus through all speeds

Enjoy the moment- if you know you’re faster when you’re on your side, don’t roll off right away. Focus on staying on edge until the last moment of front quadrant and then having a clean drive right through to a balanced position on the other side. In freestyle, that driving moment is the fastest moment of a stroke because of how clean and efficient a position the body is in. Keep the recovery arm flowing, but don’t move the body off the side until the next front quadrant moment.

500 freestyle- build pace up every 100 so that the last 10 yards is a sprin
200 MI (backwards order IM)
