Hey, all
Althiugh I have read the situations of some new swimmers on this board, I feel that my situation is somewhat different.
I have a decent level of conditioning, being that I am a powerlifter, who sometimes sprints, 2-3 times a week. However, I have wanted a sport for a long while that wont interfere with my spring sport of golf. I though back four years, to 5th grade when I was on a swim team, I absolutley loved it, but why I quit is beyond me.
---
enough rambling! Could someone point me in the right direction? I have several good friends who are swimmers, and swim on the same team, however only one of them swims year round. I know that I could be better than them if I swam all year, commitment is no problem for me!
Stats: 5 foot 8 170lbs (Need to lose some fat, I would be much leaner at 160lbs) squat 375lbs deadlift 330lbs bench press 230lbs push press 180lbs.
-Any help is greatly appreciated.

in the meantime, until I can find a coach at the Y, would it be good to follow something similiar to what is demonstrated by Mo Chambers or Jeremy Kipp? My reason for asking, is that I will be heading off to my first session in alittle under an hour, and I havent yet decided how my workout should go. Maybe I should do some volume with some different strokes for now. Im not sure, what my best stroke is yet, because I havent swam in a long while.
