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).

And this is exactly what I have been trying to point out. Probably somewhere happened somekind of misunderstanding. Because even if we advocate long warm-ups we don't advocate to swim it straight. You have to modify it to YOUR needs. Sprinters will do shorter sets at some faster pace and distance swimmers will take some longer sets. So I guess we all are somehow of the same opinion. Don't let us get in a fight about sharing the same opinion ;)
