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?

    psyncw Training to sprint and sprinting are 2 different things. In the old days we did continuous relays of 25 yards and went as fast as we could for 25 yards. This was sprinting with a real rest between each 25, we had 7 or 8 swimmers per team. It also helped perfect our dives, we did not push off the wall.
