I'm new at the butterfly stroke and struggle to do 6x33yds with a freestyle return(100 ft pool) in one workout. I do these with a full recovery (3 min). After that I'll have to switch to some other stroke because I'm pretty much shot.
What are typical workouts and distances that strong flyers do that I should try to build to? I'm thinking that 10x50's would be a great goal?

The best advice I can give is to relax and slow down.
Use as much as possible your core body muscle, be easy on your arms, follow the natural frequency of your "wave".
Control your breathing, slow down if you are running out of O2. It might take few tries to get the right rhythm and speed but it can be done...
