I heard that TI is based on the research of a Russian scientist. Is this true? Who was it? Any published papers or data? Thanks.

  • Who was/is Popov's coach/trainer? I remember reading about the Australian National Swim Coach being a Russian scientists (physicist?) who developed the principles of TI and that they were simply adopted here in the US by the TI folks. Popov's coach is Gennadiy Touretskiy. He used to coach Australian national swimming team - ex. Michael Klim is his ward as well as now he's pepraring Ian Thorpe for Olympics 2012.
