How long does it take before you start seeing improvement?
I know it's only be a month, but I'm not seeing much improvement in my 50 yd free time.
I do however feel like my body is with standing longer yardage, without stopping.
I swim an avg. of 3 days 30 mins avg. 300-400yds
1- day 60 mins avg. 800 yds. I use the workout room, 1 mile 20 min.-walk, different cable weights for 20 mins, 1 mile bike 1-2 times a week. No weight loss yet.
Trying to remember that I must really be improving it's just not showing yet.
Any advise??:confused:
What I have learned is the shorter distances are harder to improve and improvement is smaller. As you swim more, the distance swims will improve greatly. A month is a very short time.
Also, when we try to swim a 50 fast, our stroke tends to break down. Again, a month is not long enough to teach your body to retain the good stroke at a faster speed.
You also need to train speed to get speed, so once your base is at a good level, you need to train intervals a couple times a week. But training for this speed without the technique or base won't work real well.
