Never tried it myself. Is there a certain kind of workout that is more advisable? I was thinking do some quick sprints as I don't want to be at the gym for 3 hours but I don't want to hurt myself either.
Is Dr. G Genadijus Solokavas?
Yes, he's the one! I went through his testing at SwimFest, this year, and it was quite helpful:

Thanks for the links and for your feedback; I'll check out the articles. As for the hip flexor stretch, it is already in my stretching repertoire! I learned that stretch (and several other excellent ones) in physical therapy years ago and have been stretching ever since.
For my shoulders, I do these before each swim, as well as in the gym:
