Subject: RE: Swimming % Increase Rule (10%?) I definitely think you could increase more than 10% and still be safe. I recently hurt my knee and with a HIM coming up I was desperate to maintain fitness so I decided to just swim till I puked. I just went from averaging swimming 2-3 times a week and about 5,000 meters a week, to doing a couple of weeks of swimming 5-6 times a week and about 15,000 meters a week. I am not suggesting you should try this, but I had no issues. |
