Hello experts,
As part of my Scuba-diving certification, I need to demonstrate that I can swim 200 metres non-stop. The problem(s) are:
** I've been practising for the last 2 weeks, but how much I try I can't swim more than 100 Metres.
** I only know to swim freestyle and Breaststroke.
** As I was/am a body-builder I have reasonably good muscles, but very little stamina.
I am in deep s**t. If I can't show them I can swim for 200 metres I'll loose my money. I badly need to do scuba-diving as well!! What can I do, experts please give me some suggestions. The main question is - Can I achieve the 200 metres in the next 2 weeks. I am ready to sacrifice any sort of practice?
Cheers

How often are you breathing on freestyle? If you are breathing every 3 strokes it might be much easier if you breath every 2. I would also recommend getting a coach to look at your stroke.
You should practice at least 4 times a week until the test. You can easily do this if you work on your technique and keep practicing.
