Hi
i know that sounds like a dumb question, but I have concerns.
i have been reading some of the posts on this site and people are talking of swimming 5 or 6 days a week, I would love to do that.
Currently I swim 3 times a week and put in 3,500 yards a session . I would like to increase this but for the last couple of years every time it get going I end up with tendinitis in my elbows and or shoulders. The doctors always say I'm over doing it and to back off.
it seems I should be able to up my yardage or amount of swim days but I'm always afraid of injury, I am starting to get a little faster now and can feel my elbows threatening me.
Could this be a stroke problem ? Or maybe I'm susceptible to tendinitis ?
Any ideas how to get around this and spend more time in the pool would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You, Tom

As for the elbow inflammation you've mentioned, would you be referring to tennis or golfer's elbow (lateral or medial epicondylitis)?
