I am curious as to what others think is an appropriate amount of rest is when sprinting during workouts -- let's say for 25s, 50s, 75s, and 100s? Also, is there any advantage to doing sprints with a short amount of rest?

It is generally accepted around swimming camps that the work to rest interval for high intensity of maximal effort swims, ranges from 1:2 and 1:6 The more intense the swim the more recovery is required. I hope this helps. This is a great topic for swimmers. If you want to get faster, swim your fastest, rest a lot and go for quality. Good Luck, Coach T.
