when I swim at a middle distance race pace, like if im doing 5 x 100 on a quick interval my muscles get tired faster than my heart. I wont even be breathing hard but my arms are tired and causes my stroke techinque to go bad quick. Does anyone else have this problem.

I'm reading the revised one actually...he gave me the original, but I was at the bookstore and saw the revised one so I thought I'd get that for my own library.
And actually in terms of finishing in the front, my coach has been changing my stroke around for the past few weeks, because I had still been under the impression that I should do the underwater "s" pull, and finish my underwater portion back by my hip...however, apparently thats very old school, and now I am working hard to unteach myself the s pull, and finish my stroke earlier, closer to my last rib...and it definatly has increase my stroke rate, which, for sprinting purposes was the point I suppose, because my arm rate had been ridiculously slow this season for whatever reason. I also feel more efficient with this stroke, finishing more towards the front:-D woot!
