What do YOU need to do to have a major swimming breakthrough?" I started this thread over in the work outs section which I think doesn't get as much traffic as the general discussion board so here's the link forums.usms.org/showthread.php but my point is, No matter what, the time between right now and your focus meet is going to pass, and the things you do to prepare for your meet is of the UTMOST importance. the choices you make the chances you take swim hard in practice rehearse racing I want to read your story about your breakthrough. Decide it starts today that this season will be your best season EVER What do you need to do to make this true? Ande

    By next summer I want to get below 1 min on my 100yd free. Other people do it so why shouldn't I? I think its a big psychological barrier like breaking the 1.10 on 100m free back when I was 17. So if I do this it will be the fastest I have ever swum. There - I said it, now I have to do it.....and I STILL need to lose that last 10lbs. Just FTR I do still aim to improve my 100 fly and am hoping that my 200 and 400/500 free will also improve as I'm more a mid-distance girl, but heck Rebecca Adlington can do 10 x a sub-minute 100 free in a row!
