I just got back to swimming 4 weeks ago. we do 4500yds-5000yds a day -no problem. But i can't seem to break 32 sec. on 50 m. it's like i hit the wall each time i try. I tried brethe every 4 and 2 no luck.
I swim freestyle
my coach says build more endurance.
any ideas?

-ok that's good idea I'll take 2 days off this week.(haven't thought about it since i don't feel so tired after practice)
-The reason why i swim 4500-5000/day is that i do not feel worn out-just sleepy. Of course at the beginning i could hardly keep up-but now is no issue.
-i am working on my kick-that's definitely needs work-we do have kick sets evrryday
-Are you wanting to compete in the shorter distances (50s or 100s), middle distance, or distance? -> 50's and 100's-i'd like to compete(i don't now but in my mind i feel the need for speed) but only when i know i have much better speed.obviously i am working on it and enjoy doing it!
-do you suggest weight training?
thanks !
