TYR Swim Set of the Week – Vertical Kicking Fun!

by Haley on February 7, 2014

This week’s TYR Swim Set of the Week is as fresh as Japanese sushi! This was actually the last set at this morning’s Dynamo Masters workout and I thought it would be a fun one to share. Coach Maria loves spicing up the end of workouts with a little vertical kick. The key is to keep the body upright with good posture and focus on short, fast kicks coming from the hips. Try to keep your head and hands above the water (streamline is optional). Need an example? Check out this YouTube link. Have fun!!
