I am a heavy person and I really need/want to improve my breastroke times, any advice?
I swim in a 25 meter pool.
My best time is 47.57 in 50 YSC, it is depressing.
I went back to swimming after almost 10 years. I started in October, season ended in March, I recently went back into the pool, that was my best time this Oct-Mar season :badday:
Any advice?

Not necessarily. I stopped swimming competitively when I was 8 or 10 (due to constant fights with my parents—it was a rebellious thing) and just got back in the water two or three months ago with a goal of swimming Master's nationals in 2014.
The great thing about swimming...is you never truly lose it. Granted, you won't be in the shape you were when you just started out, but within two months, I could barely hit 600 meters in 30 minutes, and now can do 2 km in 45 minutes! Just keep at it, and practice makes perfect! Remember, the hardest part is getting in the car to go to the pool. :cheerleader:
