Minnows Practice Plan: Day 1 Week 2 – Streamline and Side Glide

Minnows 1Practices

100 IM Kick2 x 25 Position 11Question of the Day: How many flip turns are in a 200 FR (assuming you do them all)?<

3 x SL + 3 FR + lay on side one arm in 11, face down and float with 10 kicks.

Goal is laying on the side. Avoid belly laying. Most swimmers will get confused with the arm raised forward and will put it in the air and look up. Goal is looking down, nose in armpit. “Smell your sticky armpits.”

3 x SL on BK

Begin underwater. Lay on back, hands on head, grow into streamline. Push off in straight line.
