After a long layoff, I am getting back into swimming and I have some questions to ask.
1. How often should I rest? I plan on practicing at least 4 or 5 times a week. Bear in mind I am going to start out very slowly.
2. Any recommendations for a goggles or swim mask? I am thinking of using a swim mask starting out.
3. What should my basic swim program entail?
4. What should I be aware of starting out?

1. Optimally, you should be not swimming much more than swimming.
2. A mask would cover the nose, right? That's terrible. Speedo makes the best goggles, in general. These are my favorite: www.swimoutlet.com/.../5723.htm
3. This isn't your fault but nearly everyone asking for a training plan just need to read this: Ande's Swimming Tips: Swimming Faster Faster - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums
Somebody please sticky Ande's thread.
How long does your Speedo goggles last while using a cleaning solution? How many do you recommend getting over a year long training period? And do pools in general leave deposits on them by chance?
