If I want to train for a 200y/m Breaststroke...in say 2-3mos.
Can anyone point me to a link for said regime...I will be solo training for this.
I'm 37. 185ish.
I haven't raced in 25years lol. I'm swimming a mile of *** 3x a week circa 40-50mins (I haven't timed it accurately)
If you want to swim a good 200 *** you need to learn pace. What works for me for pace is doing 100's with twice as much rest as swimming,trying to keep the times at the speed I want to swim the second 100. If you have a goal time this works great. If you don't I'd suggest doing 100's on the 4 min. Start at a moderate pace and the see if you can go faster each time. When you can't go faster this is now your goal time. Try to keep every 100 at that speed. After 2-3 weeks try to see if you can lower your goal time. Do this 1-2 times per week.
