This Sunday's swim is our aerobic development session so bring a good set of lungs! We'll also be working on some sculling drills to help develop that effective catch and pull phase to propel you forwards through the water. Speaking of lungs have a read of the Swim Smooth blog about breathing into the trough that is created by the bow wave when you have the correct head position. You might just have a 'eureka moment' on Sunday when you try it.
