Back-end Breaststroke

There are two goals for this session: to get some aerobic backstroke work done, and to simulate the breaststroke leg of a 200m IM. Breaststroke is my weakest stroke and on a 200m IM (or worse a 400m IM) when the lactate is starting to pump, it’s very tempting to ease off for that part of the swim. So on the breaststroke part of the session its important to keep the pace and focus on technique. I use 50s for breaststroke because of my knees, but this could be adapted to 100s for the breaststroke part.
