*breath every stroke, same side
*breath every three strokes, different side
*breath every five strokes, different sides
*other?
How often do you breath?
Do you change sides?
What are the disadvantages, or advantages of breathing the same sides, every time?

Like I said in the other thread about breathing, for me depends on the event.
50/100 - every 4 or 5, shortened stroke from distance
200 - 2/3/2/3 pattern
500+ - every two
If I try breathing every 3 in a distance race it always comes back to bite me in the butt. After about a 400-500, I find I am much more tired and getting into O2 debt. I also have sports induced asthma, so that never help either.
