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 definately have a kick haha. I kick like a bat out of hell pretty much...so much so that when we do lactic sets, my coach often has us swim a few and then kick one and swim some more, and I often average only 3 seconds slower on the kick than the swim. I could be a professional kicker. Unfortunatly, being a kicker has led me to...wear a size 10 or 12 jeans for my thighs and need a size 7 for my waist. It's cool. Thunder Thighs.
