I'm like 35 from a push near the end of a practice on a hard 50 and go under 30 pretty easy from the blocks in a meet. That's what I based my guess on. Just don't know how one could swim within 1.5 seconds of their meet time in a 50 LCM from a push in practice. That's some serious practice speed!
Weird. I guess I was a big slacker then. I will note he mentioned a dive off the side so not exactly a push start.
