I swim 1,800 yards per day and I swim it in 42 minutes. I'm working to lose weight, get in better shape and become a better swimmer. Is 5 days on, 2 off per week good? What would be the ideal # of rest days per week?
Thanks!

You can go to the gym on non-swimming days to mix it up. Too much of any workout schedule will hurt you in the long run. we all need to rest our bodies at some point. At one time in my life , I ran for 5 1/2 years without a day off! The day I had my knee scoped, I asked if I might just run/jog a mile before midnight, and the Doc. said "that is how you ended up in here!!"
