I have a meet coming up in about 15 weeks and want to focus on the 50/100 free with the 50/100 fly as secondary events.
What sort of training program would you advise if I workout 5 days a week and have 2-3 hours a day to train? Should I do periodization training (6 weeks aerobic/7 weeks speed/2 week taper) or a weekly schedule where I swim hard 2-3 days a week and focus on aerobic/technique training the remainder?
If you're focusing on the 50 and 100 I don't see much reason to do much aerobic training at all. Focus on power, explosiveness and technique. Lots of all-out swimming with lots of rest. Work on your starts and turns as much as possible.
Yup
