hi i just joined and am now able to post. i am 15 in july and need workouts. i guess i am not good on the computer 'cause i can't find any. i don't really know how good a swimmer i am but my last coach said i could swim masters.
the last two seasons my coaches have been training me more in freestyle. backstroke used to be my fastest stroke with freestyle coming in a close second, but my backstroke has relaxed a little. i still thought it was a good idea, but then i read that training too much in freestyle could damage your joints.:confused:

I've heard the same thing about Freestyle being harmful to your shoulders if you aren't certain to train all supporting muscles also. And of course the best way to train all of the supporting muscles is to swim multiple strokes.
What distances do you do for Freestyle?
Current times?
Kick set times for 25, 50, 100 m or y?
The answers to these questions will help the real experts (certainly not me) help you find improvment.
Good Luck
