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? jjpj

    here is sample: 4X ( 1X50 @1:00 ; 1x75@1:30 ->i did it at 1:07) 3X50 @ 50 =did it at 37, 35, 34 1X100 @ 1:35=did it at 1:27 3X50 @50 1X150@2:20 3x50@50 1x200 @3:15=did it at 2:50 4X( 3X75 @1:30/1:25/1:20/1:30) 1X50 @ 1:10-did it at 0:36 400 smooth end jjpj In my opinion, this workout is too sparatic. You go from one concentration to the next without your muscles truly getting a sense of what your focus is supposed to be. Try to narrow down your focus for the day and/or week (set a goal of what you want to work on...endurance or sprint and go from there). It also looks like you need to lower your intervals quite a bit! Again, just my opinion.
