It would help for context.
I'll post my last 5k time so you can laugh at that, if it makes you feel better.

No way..it's bad. I should also say I just changed to Training in a jammer from traditional swimming/ board shorts as well. Probably made a big diff as well.

If you were swimming 3 minutes per 100 yards, I could easily see a 15 second improvement in a short amount of time.

At least my stroke count dropped. I'm 5"11 what's a good count per 25

So you're taller than me in a shorter pool. 8 strokes.
;-)
I'll et you decide if I'm serious. I am serious about the first paragraph though....

1-2 dolphin kicks usually. maybe 6 or 7 m off the wall
(that's not my regular SPL. I'm typically 15-16 SPL, but that in and of itself isn't a great stat. If you are doing that but you are excessively gliding* then that isn't good.
* excessive means "at all". good swimmers don't glide. not even sun yang.

If you're Ricky Berens, 9 strokes per length is pretty good. So smooth....

15 yds? You glide for over half the pool?

I was sarcastically asking Jason how far his push off is since he said he can do the 25 in eight Strokes.

Not sure if I can do that now. That was a couple of years ago, I was in the water a lot more than I have been for the past year, I think I've lost some feel and a bit of power...

Amazing. An update on terry turned into a compare and contrast on turnover, glide, speed, etc. Just sayin
