SMAC- Bronze I with Maureen & Michael

Review streamlined pushoffs & underwater dolphin kick before everybody gets in!

Review fist free drill, then...
4 x 50- 25 fist free drill br 3, 25 kick choice FAST on back
4 x 50- swim free br 3/6 kicks 1 stroke backstroke drill, by 25's
8 x 25 kick FAST with boards- odds are free, evens are breaststroke
1:00 rest

On deck, review "lift & drop" fly drill- lift & drop their chin in one motion to "sneak in" a breath
With fins-
Fly drilling**:
- fly kick with boards, feel the dolphin motion coming from their torso, all the way down through their toes
- lift & drop drill
- 3 kicks 1 pull drill
**skip the right arm2/left arm2 fly drill, I don't want anybody learning a sloppy freestyle breathing drill here!

Do an excellent job with your HW tonight & practice your breaststroke kick in front of the big mirror at home. Have a great day!
