I posted a thread a few days back about about different types of workouts and since then I've put together a hodge-podge of workouts to do over the course of a few weeks. One question that keeps dogging me has to do with stroke count. What counts as a stroke? Is right arm left arm one stroke or two? Or do different people count a stroke differently? Additionally, what should I be striving for in the terms of a freestyle stroke count? What is considered good and what is considered not so good?
Thanks, John
Good and not so good stroke count per length is dependent upon many factors, not the least of which is your size and wingspan. For me 10 to 12 strokes per 25 yard (counting right arm / left arm as 2), at a medium fast pace is good, 13 to 16 strokes per 25 means my stroke is not as efficient, and over 16 is not so good.
