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

    Mostly I was thinking that throwing other strokes in would help stretching and possibly help prevent over use and shoulder problems, also it might keep things a bit more fun/interesting. Freestyle is a bit boring, and i've gotten used to what I do. It's easy to just fall into a routine and stick with it. Lots of great advice, thanks.
