I hate to bring up stroke count again.
What is your Timed Swim Stroke Count for front crawl.
SCM 50 or SCY 50 Push off start (no swimming under water for half the pool)
Commonly called golfing or swolf, I call it TSSC score.
My score at the moment 62 for 50 SCM.

Tell that to Janet Evans! In general I think you're right, and that's the idea behind this drill, but like I said before the only thing that truly matters is how fast you complete the race. Different strokes for different folks and all that. If you don't swim fast when you are counting strokes there is no sense doing it. Now when I do 36 seconds for a 50m swim I am swimming almost as fast as I can remember take pity on this fat old fellow. I used to have a TSSC of 49, 24 strokes 25 sec 50m sc.
