From Jack Bauerle


via Swimming World
Georgia Bulldogs head coach Jack Bauerle's points of emphasis for long IM training/racing:
  • High pain tolerance does not just happen, it has to be worked for.
  • Speed into walls equals speed out of walls.
  • Fly - Breathe
  • Back - Tempo
  • Breast - Build
  • Free - 6 beat kick and finish
  • Even splitting the strokes
  • Have to be willing to work on hard stroke.
  • IM work in practice with double and triple pullouts to build air capacity when tired (distance off walls).
  • Yardage swum in IM and transition kick sets.
