  1. claaaudias answered: Fast turns and a good start! :) Don’t forget to kick long :)!
  2. jtokid answered: Keep a fast pace with a good kick.
  3. sara121894 answered: Go out only a few seconds slower than your 200 free time. Try to keep it up for the next 200 and then give all you have left in the last 100
  4. cinndyyrellaa answered: its a mental thing, knowing how to manage your 50’s is key(;
  5. bentotheparty answered: don’t.
  6. thund3rbuddi3s4l1f3 answered: sprint the last 50 or 75
  7. notmybaconyoubitch answered: go at a pace that you won’t kill yourself with and speed up with each 100
  8. dianosaurusrexx answered: Sprint the first 50, the second fifty slower, next 300 yards is pacing, last 200 should be slight sprint until the last 50 is all out.
  9. finger-onthetrigger answered: 5x100 breakdown: moderate-fast, moderate, easy-moderate, moderate-fast, fast-sprint
  10. keepcalm-hakunamatata answered: dont start out sprinting! pace yourself!
  11. bechicstayunique answered: Build the first 50. It makes it easier to hold the pace for longer.
  12. musicmelusine answered: hang on there ….. I only know metrics
  13. denisodinson answered: think of it as a set of 5 100’s and start out at a good pace so you can keep them going, build the last 200 little by little!
  14. forever-in-love-with-life answered: good start, excelent fishing, and good rythm of pace
  15. befreemayun answered: i do 100 intervals. always work your way up. each hundred swim first lap slower then your 4th should be fast. do that for each hundred
  16. l0ve-y0urself-0702 answered: I swim the 500 all the time, my coach always told me to pace myself on the 1st ten then the last 10 go all out
  17. pionearer answered: BREATHE
  18. malleymo answered: just find your pace and keep going! I find it a good time to think about the meaning of life lol.
  19. musiciskeytolife answered: pace yourself
  20. raebyrd answered: Find your pace on the first 100 and then each 100 push a little faster till you get to sprint on the last 100. :)
  21. abjecti0n answered: if you’ve never done it before, don’t go out too fast and pace yourself, but you don’t want to have too much left in the tank at the end.
  22. spjennerous answered: GOOD LUCK
  23. cluelesstan answered: work on ur flips
  24. d3stroy4 answered: pace yourself.
  25. mediumicedcoffee answered: i always start out too fast, so make sure you don’t. go moderately for the first 200, pick it up on the next 200, sprint the last 100.
  26. buen4vida answered: first go slow and after fast
