Starting over

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?

    Does Jazz or any other board member have any answers? I am looking to buy some new goggles since the company I normally buy them from went out of business. I know Speedo tends to be the leading candidate but can some people comment on goggles not made by speedo. I will truly appreciate any responses. Thank you for your time. I have two pairs of speedo googles for training. I don't use any cleaning solution other than soap. One for indoor and one for outdoor swimming. The indoor pair is almost 2 years old and the outdoor pair is over 2 years old. Both are going strong although the indoor pair has a few scratches from not protecting them properly.
