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?
Good for you for speed training Concho! Lot of fun isn't it?
You might try to breath less if possible. The air isn't terribly useful for a race that short anyway. Work your way up to it. The best 50 yard freestylers don't breath at all, but I seem to find that a bit beyond me for now.
