Main Set - Monday morning 09/20/10

Sorta fun this morning, but with still being tired from traveling over the weekend, this set was certainly challenging.

This is a swimming / strength building exercise in which you swim a certain number of lengths, and then perform a "pull-out", or lift yourself out of the water on the wall to full extension of the arms, and then back down under water. Some people call these "lift-outs" as well.

This is to be performed as a continuous swim.

Swim 1 length - Perform 1 pull-out
Swim 2 lengths - Perform 2 pull-outs
Swim 3 lengths - Perform 3 pull-outs
Swim 4 lengths - Perform 4 pull-outs
Swim 5 lengths - Perform 5 pull-outs
Swim 6 lengths - Perform 6 pull-outs
Swim 7 lengths - Perform 7 pull-outs
Swim 8 lengths - Perform 8 pull-outs
Swim 9 lengths - Perform 9 pull-outs
Swim 10 lengths - Perform 10 pull-outs
Swim 11 lengths - Perform 11 pull-outs

When you add it up, that's 66 lengths, or the swimming mile. Plus 66 pull-outs. Takes a bit longer than a straight 1650 ;)
