Stamina/Speed Workouts? |
I am a water polo player and the high school season starts pretty soon. I know that being a good swimmer all around is very important, in addition to other things, but I still have trouble with some of the swimming aspects. As a swimmer, I get all of my speed from the dive and my flipturns. In water polo, there are no such advantages. Also, I am a sprinter/mid-distance swimmer, so my stamina is not spectacular either. My question is this: can anyone help me by perhaps giving me some swim sets to help my explosiveness and/or my stamina? Thanks!
