How much time to spend on other strokes?

I mostly swim freestyle, actually ... I only swim freestyle. I'm thinking it would be good to throw in a few others, mainly *** and back (forget fly). How much time should I dedicate to these strokes outside of my regular freestyle sets? Cheers, Eric If you are a specialty swimmer and truly only swimming freestyle I would say to do about 85 - 90% of your workout in freestyle and throw a couple of odd strokes in there every now and then just to add some muscle variation.
