In connection to the poll about which stroke you train the most at; I want to test my hypothesis that no one outside of a small group of masochistic freaks would swim more than 50% of a regular 3000-4000 yard workout butterfly.......So if I'm wrong let me know by voting and by commenting on how you swim all that butterfly in a single workout?

When I was "in shape", about 800 y/m was the "lethal limit" of how much fly I could do in a workout and still be able to get out of bed to go to work the next morning due to carryover fatigue. Didn't matter if it was all in one v-e-r-y slow stretch or broken into 25s, mixed into IM's or what kind of warmdown I did.
