I usually have been swimmng 3x a week for about 4k yards plus some saturday sprint sessions of about 1500 yard.
Over the summer at LC I 've been getting in 2.5-3k 5 times a week. I just had a vacation where I got no swimming in. I have the rest of this week and the next then it's 3weeks to zones.
Should I go for a 3 week plan or 2 week? Should I swim every day or not, and how much? I'm a 50,100 FR & 50,100,200 BR swimmer. Long FR and anything else is for fun and timekilling--so I don't taper with them in mind.
I've got a vague idea in my head like cutting by 500m a week until i'm down to the 1500-2000 mark, and getting my sprints in. Is that enough to cut or too little?
I don't really lift, run or bike, though I may try to do some bikes on the next two weeks. I'm not used to 5 nites a week so wanted to get some ideas.
Thanks
Should I swim every day or not, and how much?
I would suggest continuing to swim the same number of sessions, but reduce the volume per session. Perhaps drop about 25% of your yardage the first week and another 25% (from the original volume) the second week.
