I've been counting breaths and strokes at 25 & 50 yds. I seem to be doing 6 strokes before a breath, breathing about 4 times then flip turn, doing 3 strokes and a breath, then finishing the 50 with the contunied 6 -4 strokes and a breath. Finshing 50yds in 35 sec. starting from the wall, I didn't feel it was 100% because I had already swam about 2X200's with a 3:00 min rest before this first interval. Plus pool was too warm today yuk! Is is good, not good, can improve, what should my goal be?

    Ande your right I shouldn't take a 3 min. rest after a 200 actually it was after 2x200 in a row, plus a guy at the "Y" stopped me and talked, so my time ended up being 3:00 It should have only been 1:00. yesterday didn't feel good to start with, the water was so warm, I had to stand up in the sallow in between rests to cool off, probably even rested between sets more than I should. Hopfully the cool down the pool and I can do better. I will start looking more at you threads to try them. right now ya'll are my on-line coachs. Thanks, scyfreestyler, I will remember your tips, 50's on the 1:30, form, speed and breaking up speed on 100's - great idea- thanks
