I ask the question because when I returned to the pool last month after a three week taper for scm zones, I was swimming faster in practice than I had in decades. Now I cannot hold the same pace that seemed almost effortless just a week ago. So do I tough it out as usual until it's time to taper again, or do I schedule recovery weeks throughout the season?
I have a hard time backing off in the water. even when I try to swim slow I swim faster than I want to. But if I go too many days without being able to reach 90% I feel I need to step back I don't swim one day.
I miss too many workouts because of work and family so it doesn't happen too often that I miss practice because I want to.
