After almost two full weeks without swimming, I decided I would test my shoulders today. I absolutely didn't want to risk aggravating them before Saturday, so I took it nice and easy. We hit the pool and I did some slow freestyle sets with breaststroke intervals. My left shoulder hurt a bit during my warm up, but I felt zero pain for the rest of the swim. I ended up doing some moderately fast sets of 100 free, followed by breaks of 50 breast, just to get my heart rate up a little more. In the end, I'm glad I warmed up my shoulders a bit and stretched them out with a few yards in the water. I'll do one more tough dryland workout tomorrow and then start resting for Saturday. I'm super nervous.
Total distance: 2,000 yards
Cant wait to see you Saturday. You will do great!
