I'd like to know how to write my workouts. I understand "descend". I understand "on 1:00". I understand "rest 10 seconds between 50s". BUT, what if there's nothing written after the stroke? Like, "3X100 free"? You're supposed to have the amount of rest time after it, right, or the interval time, right?
Check this for errors, please
150 warmup (50 *** 50 back 50 free)
6 x 50 back drill w/fins
6 x 50 ***
3 x 100 free
12 X 25 with 2 or less breaths on a minute
12 X 25 all out on 1:15 w active rest w 25 active rest between
200 easy stroke of choice cool down
Thank you in advance and I look forward to hearing from you!
I just discovered hugger's swim terminology post from 2 years ago right after I posted this. But I'd still like someone to find the errors in my workout above.

Correct. I'm not clear on if you're trying to write your own workouts or if you're finding workouts somewhere and trying to decide how to interpret them. If it's the latter, it's possible they didn't put an interval down because it would depend on the swimmer's speed. I would suggest taking some reasonable amount of rest. :15 seconds is probably a good place to start unless the intent is to sprint, in which case you'd want more rest.
