Newbie here. How important are push-ups for shoulder/arm/back/core strength. I have a morning routine where I do several sets of 20, 30, 40, or 50 for between 150-300 a few days a week. Then swim 1000 yds or more later in the day.
If you are interested in swimming distance events then you are going to need to swim considerably more than 1,000 yards per day.
Yes, 1000 minimum, up to 1 mile every 4 weeks. I only got back into this last July. I plan on getting up to 3 miles by summer, but first I have signed up for 10 weeks of stroke improvement classes. After the 10 weeks comes OWS triathlon training.
