I'm not too worried about the turning aspects...just a little unsure of what to do at the backstroke to *** turn.
Also any good workouts for this?
I'm doing 900 free for warm up (0-1650 in 6 weeks) then trey to do another 1500 per workout.
I've obviously been hitting *** but want to get some fly and back work in as well as turns--obviously I can always go to the wall and touch then turn but that's inefficient.
Is doing a 100 IM then hitting sets of 50 of fly and back or what? I've ordered a couple of books for reference and they should get here shortly.
Any thoughts or articles?

More observations about swimming IM in my workouts.
Yesterday was a combination of 100 and 200 IM swims. Can someone tell me why I can swim a 200 with less misery and pain than the 100? I did the 100's around 1:30 and after each, hang on the wall gasping until I go again. The 200's are at a slightly slower pace, around 3:05-3:10 and I don't feel nearly so wiped out after.
More recovery time napping in the 50 of back...:drink:
