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.
Well said, Lindsay. I think you're right on the money. Maybe this is a better way to do this set: start out with a baseline 80% effort 50 and count your strokes and remember your time. Now try to hit this same time but reduce the number of strokes taken on the subsequent 50s. This will give a truer indication of what changes actually produce more efficient swimming without sacrificing speed.
