i have been reading a lot of the posts herein.... and it has occurred to me... (and this will surely betray my newbie-ness) there are an awful lot of abbreviations and terms used that leave me essentially having no clue what was said.... is there a book out there someplace "swimese for dummies" or the like? i speak several languages, sadly swimese is not yet among them.....
i can swim two miles comfortably, and have energy left over after to go run three miles... but decode the posts on this board?....
any reference/resource suggestions gladly accepted...
thanks.
be,

The one that gets me is that so many people use "Lap" and "Length" interchangeably. Isn't a Lap swimming up and back and Length just swimming from one wall to the next?:frustrated:
It matters to me because I swim in two pools one is 50m and the other is 25m.
Thanx,
