I would like to know if anybody out there has a good swim workout for a novice swimmer. I can swim and i have good forms, but i tire easily and usually have to take it 25m at a time. This is just something extra to throw in to the mix and brake up the normal day to day routine.
Is it your legs, or arms that usually get tired when swimming? Or both? For me it was my legs, and I started to use a kickboard. Did that for a while, and it really helped me. When I first started swimming again, I would also try and go pretty fast, which was hurting my form. I slowed it down, made sure I had proper form, and seemed to glide a bit farther too.
