I have heard that some Masters coaches are more interested in general fitness than speed.What is your experience? Do you feel that your coach prepares you to swim 50s and 100s?Is sprinting a regular part of practice at least once a week and if so do you do it as a main set or as an add on at the end?Do you do lactic acid sets?How much do you work on starts and turns?

The majority of our training is endurance based, but we do sprint pretty often.
Sometimes as I'm coming to the end of a season I'll break off from the group a bit and do some sharpening work, i.e., sprinting. That's my taper. I spend about three weeks working on speed and recovery.
