I ask this because I did a 500 and then 5x50s warm up for a meet this past weekend. When I swam the 500, I was cruising but was literally dead after about 6 laps. I go much faster in practice sets when we do distance and it was frustrating to say the least.
I recall that I did a 1,500 warmup in my youth and had a good meet. I also know that in workout I am usually at my strongest after we do about 1,500-2,000.
So, I am tired of being a workout warrior. Does 1,500 of warm up sound crazy?
Thanks,

Also, geek, do you still think scientific articles are less credible if they are found through Google Scholar as opposed to one of the more clunky article search engines? I remember our last argument about Google Scholar, which was simply astounding to me. You could not figure out, through any amount repetition or variations on the theme, that Google Scholar leads to the exact same articles as any other database or search engine that covers scholarly journals. The research is not less real, the person finding the research is not more dumb, really nothing is different at all. I can find articles at the library by using the indexing system, or by going to the section where I know the relevant journals are and just browsing. Either way, I end up at useful information. So you probably need to stop using "Google" pejoratively with respect to finding journal articles :)
I'm not really sure how else to back up a point with scientific research besides searching for articles. I know that research exists to support specific ideas, because I've read the research before. How do you propose I find it again?
