I swim on my own so I write up my own workouts. M,W,F I don't have a problem making up a practice because I just do 3,000 after I lift. These practice are mainly to loosen up and focus on technique. T,Th,Sat, I do 6,000. I have been writing my own workouts for a while and recently I have been running out of ideas for sets and see myself doing lots of the same sets week after week. It's been hard for me to come up with 6,000 without most of it being pointless yardage. I would really like it if some of you could throw a couple of sets out there so I can get over this boring stage. I don't need an entire workout just some main set ideas so I can give me imagination a rest for a while. I'm training for the 100/200 free and 100 fly, and my goal times are 49.99, 1:52, and 54.99.

I do main sets that are 2000-3000 yds with some of it on 1:10 interval and some on 1:30 so it usually comes out to averaging around 1:20 I hold around 1:08-1:10 on them. Sometimes I do sprint stuff like 75's, 50's and 25's also. The rest is warming up/cooling down, pulling, kicking, and drills. Thanks for the ideas newmastersswimmer.
