I took the train to the upper west side of Manhattan, where the Columbia men kicked things off on a Friday morning with the “Friday Morning Special” (400 free/300 kick w/ fins every 4th 25 underwater, 200 pull, 100 IM).
Then they got things moving with 30×50 like this:
- Breast OTB on :45
- Back on :40
- Fly on :35
- Free on :30
- Free on :25
- DAB (double-arm backstroke) on 1:30
Next they had a monster pull set, which had 2 groups:
Lower set – 400/300, 300/200, 200/100, 100/50 (1st distance pull, 2nd distance swim best effort)
Upper set – 400/400, 300/300, 200/200, 100/100 (same pattern)
They finished up their swimming with 24×25 with fins, where 2 swimmers sprinted a 25 with fins and the 3rd swimmer left right behind them, without fins, and tried to catch their wake.
But the best part of practice was saved for last, as they capped their Friday morning with some jumps off the blocks through hula-hoops.
Imagine introducing this guy to among us
Next episode! Long Island Aquatic Club. It was a good one
Geez. Looking the guy up. You should do a whole article on the coach. 3 sport star in college (lacrosse, soccer, swimming), drafted and played pro soccer, elite Master’s cyclist, triathlon junkie. I mean, how could you complain about a hard set the guy gave you.
That’s crazy shit
Coach looks too fit to be a coach. I’d be scared to death to hear the next set come out of his mouth.
Come to Northwestern practice + pancakes next!
I swam for Bolster from 1991-1995. This video is classic Bolster. He is the real deal and I don’t think there is a finer Coach and mentor out there.
Great athlete and what a huge family! He is one of 14 kids and his wife is one of 12!
I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the coach let the guns out on the day Coleman comes to film practice. Dude is yoked
thats just bolster being bolster.
The way he says “uh, I was watching squid game”
Should be a spoiler alert on this post, jeez.
