I swim an average of 30,000 yards a week. The way I get 30,000 is the question I have. Some weeks I swim three times and do 10,000 each day. Other weeks I swim six times a week and do 5,000 each day. I wonder which way is the most effective for training. I feel guilty when I only swim three times in a week, even though I have the same total yards.
What are your thoughts on this. Is it better, worse, or the same to swim three times a week instead of six times? I don't know, I am just trying different things to figure out what the best way to workout is. I should also mention that swimming is the only excercise I do and when I swim 10,000, I usually need the next day to recover.

Age has much to do with the recovery rate. Some people can bounce back from day to day depending on other demands on their time. A stressful job, a house full of kids, or lots of commute time can diminish how much pool time one can handle also.
