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).

Anyhow, if one person chooses to swim a 3000 yard workout and call 1200 of it warmup and another person swims the same distance but calls 500 of it a warmup, what is the difference between the two workouts? Most likely nothing aside from the identification of the yardage.
That's probably a good point. I'm considering anything previous to the main set to be warmup. This might not always be the case, but I suspect it is for the most part in masters swimming where we're typically in the pool for much less time than younger swimmers.
