Hi all
Well, we have added a fourth day to when our pool is open during the week. I have been wanting to add yardage to my normal swims, from 1000 - 1250 yards (50 laps in my 25 yard pool) but am hesitating since I am, technically, adding an extra 1000 yards per week now.
Should I be concerned about this or would it be safe for me to go ahead and add my 250 extra yards on all 4 days?

I'd say test the waters and go for it. Maybe try doing a little extra yardage every other day. But I think if you do a nice steady pace and you've been ok with 1000 yds for a little but, that going to 1200-1250 shouldn't be too bad.
And as aforementioned, just make sure that your shoulders and body are doing ok.
