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:

  • I sometimes swim with my 13 year old. She is a good training partner, we are comparable in speed. It is fun. If your starts are good, you can get at least a second, maybe more. I think your times right now are pretty darn good and if you work on your endurance, you will find them drop. We women often tend to put everyone else first and forget to take time for ourselves. If morning does not work for you, schedule an hour at lunch, and hour later in the day, but say to yourself, this is my time, I deserve it, and stick to it! My family KNOWS not to bug me during my work-out time. They wait unless the house or dog or something is on fire. :D
