I swim a little over 8000/wk with a 1:3 ratio of race pace to recovery swims swimming 4X/wk.On 2 of those days I also spin(but not as much as Paul,I never seem to have time for more than 30 min,usually less) and lift(and balance ball and I do RC exercises every workout.)(The race pace work starts 15 wk before a taper meet,but with 3 taper meets/yr that is most of the year,the other time is long/slow swims,drills and rest my shoulders and knees.)
