Lezak Wins 50 free and 400 Free Relay at Maccabiah Games! VIDEO!!

Posted by Glenn Mills on Jul 23, 2009 10:01AM (2,452 views)

While it was yesterday, we did get word that Jason Lezak won the 50 free, and gave another thrilling anchor leg of the 400 freestyle relay at the Maccabiah Games.

His time in the 50 free was 22.19 and about an hour later, swam a 47.8 on the relay to give the US the Gold Medal.

Word is he left the blocks :02 seconds behind, but was able to pass the lead swimmer for the Gold.  Sound familiar?

slow arm recovery and fast kicking.... what wrong with fast arm recovery?

Fast arm recovery can actually slow you down!!!

Fast recovery will force you to rush the pull, its all about the length and efficiency of your stroke.

Mmm sound like Popov style slow, efficiency recovery. But other swimmer who swam fast one is Eamon Sullivan.....

Fast recovery makes you lose your grip on the water. if you have a good grip, you can push yourself harder.
