Hey DSV,
Reading the above makes me think I might be going a bit faster then most. I'm pretty sure I usually do 125m in under 2 minutes, so prob 110-120 seconds.
Trying to remember how long it took me to do 100m, think around the 1 min 30 mark, so 90 seconds or so.
I have a funny aproach, to dynamics :- start slow finish fast, similar to what Erik does, but bit different.
I use Bi-fins, and do the first lap at a slow/medium speed, with narrow flutter kick, and arms above head in streamlined position. After the turn around I change to a medium speed dolphin kick, arms by side, then speed up more on the last lap.
I find the slow flutter kick on the first lap really relaxes me and gets my heart rate down, once I start dolphin kicking it's pretty much Anaerobic from there on anyway.
The lactic acid build up is pretty severe at the end.
Wait a minute you were talking monofins ?
Well top speed is obviously faster, I would have thought a 'medium pace' with a monofin should be a tad faster then dolphin kicking with Bi-fins.
I know Seb Murat does close to 30 second laps when he does his dynamics. He has done 195m in training. But that's really fast, and he is a bit of a freak, I wouldn't be trying those sort of times.
Still thinking you guys with the Mono's should try speeding up a bit more then 1m/s. Surely that rule can't work equally for Depth diving & Dynamics with Bi fins or Monofins ?!
Specially when you consider a slow dolphin kick with a monofin, is still a lot faster then a slow flutter kick with Bi-fins.
Cheers,
Wal
