Of course you are confused. When it comes to working out it is a jungle out there. Swimming intervals are by far the best method of improving one’s speed. You should swim say, 30 seconds like there is a shark behind you! Then you proceed slowly for 90 seconds. That is one set. 5-6 sets are more than enough per session. Provided that you put up sufficient effort. During the first week you should do only 3 sessions of intervals. Then you can increase the number. Later, you will be able to do 3-4 sessions a day provided that there are at least 30-40 minutes between each session. Remember that you should give your body enough time to rest. Take a few days off every now and then. In fact, after 4-5 days of intervals you should have at least one day off.
