We do swim 5 days a week about 4500-5000yds/day, sprints, endurance etc. Since about last week i do not feel very tired after the sets. When i started swimming 5 weeks ago i was exausted.
Does it mean that i can add more to my workout on top of what coach had assigned? I know i can do it cause still have like 20-25 minutes left of swim time.

Some of the faster swimmers on my team (read: not me) rest for about 15 minutes after they finish the workout, then have the coach time them on something. For instance, they do a timed 50 free, 25 back, 25 SDK, etc. Seems like you are already getting a lot of yardage in, so this might be something you'd want to consider working in at the end of the workout, especially if you have time and if you're working on upping the speed.
