Well, first off. I'm a freshmen in high school and I've been interested in joining the swim team mostly because I thought it might look good on my college application. I can do the crawl stroke very well including the breathing and backstroke decently. The thing is I'm not very good at breaststroke at all. I don't know anything about competitive swimming to be honest but is the breast stroke must? Should I join anyway if it is?
If I do, what workout would you recommend? I'm a girl so I'm not really into lifting weights or anything like that. I don't have any memberships to any pools nearby and the school pool is closed for a while but I do want to get in better shape before swimming starts. The last time I swam was around October. I've been running 1-2 miles a day. Is that good enough or should I do more to get better?
