Different folks have different opinions
I prefer to lift close to meets, backing off in the water gives me a chance to get stronger in the weight room, then I'll back off the week before &
stop 2 or 3 days before. I do this because I've done a lot of swim work outs after lifting and I've been able to swim fast in practice. Sometimes I'll quit leg weights sooner than arms. If anything is injured, I may skip the exercises that use injured or sore muscles.
