I have recently strated swimming for exercise and fitness in the morning before work. I have joined my local Y, and only have 45 minutes to get in a good workout. I do 50's 100's and sometimes 200's freestyle reps. I would like to add to my routine to improve stamina and speed. All the workouts posted take over an hour, What else can be done in 45 minutes? Thanks

Two of my favorites:
1) a) warm up
b) broken 1650 done as:
11 lengths, rest :15
10 lengths, rest :15
9 lengths, rest :15
... etc ...
3 lengths, rest :15
2 lengths, rest :15
1 length
Take the elapsed time and subtract 2:30
Also, try to get faster as the # of lengths goes down
c) warm down
2) a) warm up
b) 1650 done as 33 X 50, rest :10 between 50's, take elapsed time and subtract 5:30
c) warm down
