What do YOU need to do to have a major swimming breakthrough?"

One topic of great interest to us all is "What do you need to do to have a major swimming breakthrough?" "What do you need to do to significantly improve your swimming times over one season?" Do you have any specific, nitty gritty type suggestions. I think it's really easy to fall into ruts, to just show up and go through the motions rather than seizing the moment while we train. Any one have any thoughts on what we need to do to significantly improve? forums.usms.org/showthread.php

    When swimming by myself I can do 1:15 intervals for about 1500 before I start missing the interval. I will start trying to gradually lower my intervals though during main sets and see what I can do. Again, thanks for the advice. Ever since I started swimming about 3 years ago my turns have sucked and are definitely the weakest part of my swimming. I've been trying to work on them lately and have improved them a little bit, my streamlines are pretty good though.
