I am not a breaststroker. Seriously, my kicking and breaststroke are nearly the same speed, but today is that day of the month where I focus on breaststroke. You’ll notice there’s less breaststroke emphasis than what you’ll find in my other stroke emphasis swim workouts. It’s for that reason. I try, but I’m just slow. Be sure to change the intervals to match your speed. Hopefully, you’ll enjoy this 50-minute swim workout.
