I added wrong! I've been swimming 14,000 yards per week for the last 15 years, not 30,000! :afraid:I recently hit 60 and have begun to wonder if my times would improve if I did less yards and incorporated more quality workouts in. Since I have a bit of OCD, I would like your input for those 50 and over. How many yards a week do you put in?

  • I'm 73 and race well if I get in 10,000-12,000 per week. Ideally, I'd like 5 days at 2,500, but I rarely get it. Right now, I am aiming for 4 days at 2000. I hope to increase it in the next month or so. I also lift weights with a trainer twice a week. Weights are a big help.
