In my regular training session I do 50% drills and 50% straight swimming(of different distances).Is this a good balance or should I be doing more drills??:cool:

    i usually warm up with some drill work. then i get into my set and try to concentrate on good technique. if while i'm swimming i start to feel my technique getting really crappy i'll start doing drills to help me pull my stroke back together. i'm trying to redo my free stroke and swim fast at the same time which is often a problem for me but doing drills when need (PRN :) i'm a nursing student.......) has seemed to help a lot. drills are fun too. i used to hate them when i did club swimming b/c i had to rush to make the interval and really couldn't take my time, but now i can........
