    I don't know about the men's locker room, but I haven't found or seen a single fegirl who isn't checking out how her butt looks in her fastskin. Truth be told, Geek has been known to ask if a particular suit makes his butt look big. I believe that our program is pretty typical--18-20K/week, a mix of En1, En2, and En3, main set averaging 1200-1500 yards, descending to race pace with occasional timed swims. I found that I needed to develop a solid aerobic base to complete long course workouts. And I agree with the other posters--recovery (within sets, between sets, and between workouts) is a much bigger issue in Masters than it was back in the day (when Carter was in the White House).
