In the 50 Free and 500 Free respectively what percentage of my propulsion would ideally come from my legs versus my arms?
I understand that in the 50 free I'd use both for all their worth, but would still like to know for the typical swimmer what that ratio turns out to be.
In the 500 free I'm sure the tactics of oxygen consumption come in to play.
Thanks.

Couldn't say a ratio, but you're going to need them both. Sawing off limbs won't make you faster, if that's what you're thinking.
