Man, a whole lot depends on what occured before that 32.5 in practice and how much rest you had before. Let's say it was near the end of a workout and you got rest, then I would say 27.5 off the blocks with a taper.
If you never swam competitavely you will see huge improvements at first, mainly because of starting point. Then, once improvements have dissappeared consider 0.25 seconds a major breakthrough

I swim within 1.5 sec of my race time with a push, unshven, unrested, etc. But during a race just prior to my event I'm a nervous wreck. But a 27.5 50 would make my day, even a 28.5, or a 29.2.

Steve, are you swimming in the meet in Asheville in Sept? A few people have said that is a good meet with a good amount of fast people for an early in-season meet to hit that sub 28
