I've been mostly concentrating on events such as 400, 800 and 1500 f/s. So most of my training of late has been in improving speed endurance and stroke efficiency. I'm in an event on February 6 though where the only events I'll be doing are 50m and 100 f/s. Can anyone provide me with some suggestions of what I can do in this short period of time to improve my times in these two events? I'd like to beat 30 seconds and 1:10 respectively. My PB's(recent training and events a while back) are about 32 and 1:15. Typically my sprints have been rather messy. Thanks,

Which times are your referring to? Best times (which are from my college/HS days) or my current interval/training times? Remember also, I'm currently training Short Course Yards, not meters.:D
As fars as what we do differently....I think its the Australians that dominate distance and others in the sprints!! You guys tell us!! :D
Your current times. Stuff like 200s on 2:45. Even the fastest in our squad would struggle at that. Maybe the difference is the Yards vs metres. We train long course metres.
I just have tend to note though that US Masters Swimming tends to be much faster than Australian Masters Swimming. Thanks,
