By freestyle I mean front crawl. At the pool I see many people swim only freestyle. Some regulars swim it continuously for more than an hour, nothing else, day after day. Unless they are preparing for some coming race, I wonder why they don't get bored? It's also easy to get injury if you swim only one style for long term. Does anyone here belong to this category? If so, I'm interested to know what's your mindset. :D

This I don't agree with.
I swim crawl in all my workouts because it's all I compete in. During my warmup though, I do about 2-3 lengths of slow backstroke to warm up the shoulders a little.
