There was some confusion over the previous poll "What is your favorite stroke?", as the word "favorite" can be interpreted many different ways. For example, someone may think it's his/her favorite because it's most graceful and likes to watch this stroke the most, but he/she may not necessarily swim this stroke.
So this is the new poll.
Please only select the stroke you PERSONALLY train and spend most time swimming (and thinking about).

In warmup the longest "leg" we swim straight are 300m at the beginning, the rest is made up of 25, 50 and some 100's focusing on perfect form and even already pushing ourselves with some kind of "fartlek" games. So we have a really fast warm up and don't spent "Much miles on 10k pace" ;) Because warm up doesn't necessarily mean that you will swim it straigt and slow.
Now that's what I call good information and good advice!
This type of warmup make more sense for sprinters, as you are quickly already doing sets that resemble the distance that you typically swim and compete.
