Looking for recommendations on a breathing pattern for the 100 Free scy. Two ideas I had were... The first 50 will be faster than the second 50, would it make sense to breath more on the second 50 - the thought being, a breath at a faster speed will have more of a detrimental effect than a breath at a slower speed due to higher drag. Alternatively, it's easier to restrict breathing early on in the race so would it make sense to breath more as the race progresses?
All the above are good if they work for you. Any 50 will not put most of us into oxy debt, but 100+ swims will. I'm sure the older we get the slower we swim & need more oxy to run the old muscles.
