i am ONLY focused on the 50m and belive i can get good results by gym-ing alot and swimming (weekly) only to correct my stroke and starts.
Possible???
To swim better you need to swim more. Alain Bernard told in an interview that he swims 60km weekly + gym. Indeed everything depends on your swimming level. The weaker level of swimming, the more time you need to swim and less time spend in gym. I would prefer using paddles and other swimming devices to increase strength.
In my case technique suffered a lot when I tried gym - my muscles were like a sponge after gym. Maybe I did something wrong I don't know but I barely could swim after.
