Hi everyone. I have been doing the interval based workouts posted on the workout section and really enjoying them. However, whenever I try to move up to a faster interval (and add more yards) my left shoulder gets very sore. Does any one have suggestions on how I can strengthen my shoulders to help handle more yards?
There isn't a master's team where I live, but the age group couch has "stroke clinics" for adults that I have been going to once a week to make sure I am using good technique and am not injuring myself with strokes.
Thanks in advance!

All great advice here. One thing I would add is that these exercises should be done after swim practice or several hours before practice. You will be fatiguing the cuff muscles with the controlled exercises so you don't want that fatigue to carry over into swim practice where your shoulder movements are not as controlled.
