Help me. I have been training for a couple of months(Since October) for a 4.4 swim and have been battling stiffness/Soreness in my shoulders and chest. While my friends say that I am over training I beg to differ. I watch other swimmers who are training for the event train for a minimum of an hour in the pool daily while I am suffering. My recent workout was;
Saturday 2 miles 67 minutes
Sunday cardio work no pool
Monday 1 mile 33 minutes
Tuesday 1 mile 32 minutes
Wednesday -Whinned a lot
Thursday-More of the same.
I am new to this sport so I need some wisdom.
I am 33 years old so I don't think it is age(hope not).

a nice soak in a hottub (106 to 108 degrees) dialates the blood vessels and allows the lactic acid to be removed from the muscles.
