I think most masters who work out with a team tend to swim about 3-4 K per work out. But what I want to know is what percentage of that is hard swimming? And by hard I mean race pace effort. For example, last nights work out was the following. 4X200 warm up. (EZ swimming) 10X100 - odd on 1:35 (EZ) Even on 1:20 (hard) 3 rounds of the following 200 on 3:00 Build (EZ/moderate) 3X100 on 1:40 (25 hard/25 EZ...) 4X50 kick on 1:05 Warm down 200 2750 of this was EZ or moderate swimming. And only 950 was hard swimming. About 26%. For the high intensity/quality yards fans is this about right or is it a little light? Kevin
