Can speed practice alone help long distance endurance?
Former Member
If I only practice to improve the speed in short distance, will it help increase the endurance needed for long distance? In other words, say I have trained for several months for (only) speed, could I, one day, suddenly find myself swimming long distance without feeling tired?
(Obviously the opposite is not true: simply being able to swim slow long distance doesn't help improve the speed.)

Someone would like to comment on the breathing issue I asked above (#30)? :rolleyes:
Sure, in between strokes, usually on the opposite side of the chop, and occasionally some Valsalva spurts thrown in to catch waves or see where I'm going.
