Sometimes after our workouts I feel completely wiped. (I refer to this as "blowing a gasket"). It's all I can do to drag myself to the car and drive home, which is luckily not very far. Usually it's a sprint workout that will do it. Let's just say that it makes it hard to get work done the rest of the day... Does this happen to anyone else? Any suggestions, other than "don't swim as hard," which seems to be defeat the reason why I am there in the first place? (It doesn't seem to me that I am swimming harder than anyone else).
You might have some other sleep disorder that you don't know about.
Then again, if the problem is truly only post-sprints, it's probably normal and should get better with time.
It really is just a post-sprint problem (or, nights when I don't get enough sleep). I've swam on and off for years (swim for a few years, off for a year or two), but it's been over two years since I had any significant break in my training.
Sorry, I don't mean to be a nay-sayer, I'm just trying to track this thing down.
