I returned to master swimming at age 36 after 17 years. I work out 1 day a week with our masters team for 1.5 hours and the 3 more times a week on my own. My workout usually consists of a 300 yd warmup ( 3 different strokes) then 10 x 50's on 1 minute. (bringing them in around 30 sec each) The next set is 10 x 100's on 2 min. (bringing them all in under 1:10) Next is 5 x 200's on 4:00 ( bringing them in under 2:30) finally a 200 warmdown. My question is if this is a good workout to build speed and endurance? My times for each set are getting faster. Anyone that could offer advice....thanks

yes sometimes, and I do vary it from time to time (usually meaning varying the strokes), but I just seem to be able to push myself with this workout> It also fits perfectly in the alotted time frame (1 hour).
