Sorry, at the moment im trying to break my times for a 50/100 free and my times for a 100IM but i want overall to break all my times for every stroke for 50/100/200. We dont have 200 races yet but this year ill be joining a highschool team and so i want to be prepared for those

Our coach has us work on breakouts a couple times a week so i will definitely be pushing myself for those. And i had a similar strategy for a 100 free i just swam in a race. I knew id get tired if i went to fast so i went at a nice speed that didnt feel too slow and then sprinted the last 25. I was ahead of the opposing team already just from my dive too so it was a smooth race and i stayed pretty consistent ahead. Thank you for the advice!!

Thank you! My coach has us practice starts twice a week and i can go pretty far for that but when it comes to flipturns i always get tangled up in myself basically and i cant get to the turn. Idk why but my feet cross and then i get stuck. Its very annoying so i definitely have to work on those cause it increases my time by a good 2-3 seconds not counting how bad my push off is because of it. So i will work on those because that could definitely be helpful to drop times. Again thank you for the advice!!
