I tried doing a search in the forums on this and couldn't find anything. I am curious to know how many yards people in Masters are swimming a practice. I swim on average 3000-4000 yards a practice, 3 times a week.

Craig,
you do like Maglischo's Swimming Fastest, don't you?
Maglischo says that for events up to 60 seconds, the aerobic glycosys accounts for 10%.
It's 65% anaerobic threshold, 25% ATP-CP creation in anaerobic, 10% aerobic.
.) Anaerobic threshold is:
distance sets of repeats of two minutes swims in base minus five seconds, in lactic acid.
.) ATP-CP creation in anaerobic is:
breakouts, burst sprints repeated every up to 30 seconds.
.) Aerobic is:
long moderate swims on base using the lipolytic and glycolytic energies.
I think it can work for events up to two mintes also, like 200 free.
You can design workouts of 65%, 25%, 10% over a week, and over a season.
Pieter van den Hoogenband (Ned.), the World Record holder in 100 meter free, trains in less than 6000 meters per day of speed, power, anaerobic and aerobic according to Maglischo's formula (and not TI's Stroke Length) of 65%, 25%, 10%, here:

Craig, remember me.
