To those who swim on a team and are left in despair when the season is over, do you still swim on your own during the off-season? If yes, what kind of sets do you swim?
Or do you just do nothing for one and a half months? How does this affect one's swimming performance?

I usually take one week off and then get back to it. I with a week of just stroke work and then increase the yardage and its back to normal :). I do have 2-3 weeks in the year that I take off for vacation so I guess that makes up for my lack of break. I love it too much to take a break too long and the one week really lets me rest and refocus.
