How To Swim Faster: http://www.active.com/triathlon/Articles/How-to-Swim-Faster.htm
but the coolest part was that it gave this little workout!:
10-15 percent easy warming up (4x100 easy on 20 seconds rest)
10-20 percent drills and kicking (8x50s as alternating 1 drill, 1 kick on 15 seconds rest)
40-70 percent main set (6x200 on 30 seconds rest or 12x100 on 15 seconds rest) Optional additional drills
5-10 percent cool down (100 easy)
happy swimming
