Hi, I am looking for training method to improce sprint speed. I used to swim competitively when I was young, stopped a little more than 10 years ago (i am 32). Now I am trying to improve my 50 free SCM. I just restarted swimming this year and swam my 50 in pratices at 27.5. I would love to get back to 24.9. Any tips or ideas on the trainig type? (technique should be fine and I know what to improve, its mostly the training type I am not so sure) I train 3 times a week and i'll eventually go to 4-5 when my body can handle it. Thanks!

    Thanks everyone for all the good info! Sadly I can't look at Leslie workout (I am not a USMS, I am Canadian, sorry for hijacking your forum but our is pretty bad). I am looking into Ande blog and evrything is pretty interesting! Hopfully I can come down under 25 in my SCM before we start the LCM season (Sadly, we don't swim SCY, that would be really good for me since I am better the shorter it is and I have excellent turns).
