Efficiency
At both events camps over the weekend efficiency was the main theme. This is the time of the season where fine tuning is the focus. The ability to do this with short rest and strong efforts is what will hard wire those techniques into the swimmers mind. This is very easy for a swimmer to control and monitor with stroke counts and times. Once they start to monitor this it is also up to the swimmers to ask the coaches how they can improve upon different things. It is easy to notice if you are swimming faster and more efficiently in your workout as you monitor this. By monitoring those things you begin to own your own swimming and it is this skill that will allow you to reach your dreams.
