So I am new to Masters. Swam in HS and barely in college before getting burnt out. It has been about 10 years since then. I am 32 now.
I have been practicing for about 6 weeks for 3-4 evenings a week, and about 3000-3500 yrds per workout.
My high school personal best in the 50Y Free was 21.53. After only 2 weeks of workout, I did about 27-ish and in my recent meet this weekend, I went 25.41, so I have already improved somewhat, but I think getting down to 21s may take some time.
So I was just curious if anyone else had a similar story, how long did it take to get back to your HS times, if it was even possible for you? Years? Many Years?

i started swiming 4 weeks ago trust me i could hardly keep up with sets but i had to push myself a little-it pays off big time -. Now there is problem we do on average 4500-5000yds. My time for 50m from block is 32sec-slow but if i consider that i just started and have not swam past 15 years i think that's good. patience is the key-iwill do some weights ,
I swim ~2hours Monday -Friday then weights on Sat or Sunday.
