    I agree with Matt. A lot of workouts have middle aged swimmers or seniors on 5 to 10 second rest intervals. That's ok for short distances or swimming more moderately. But I believe that its better for many of us 45 plus that are not the top swimmers to go with intervals that match our ability. I can't do a 1:30 freestyle interval since to go under 1:25 in workouts I have to swim fairly fast. I can't do 1:50 intervals on ***, or fly or back or IM. I rarely go under 1:40 in workouts in these strokes.
