Anyone know how swimmers were chosen/ applied for the High Performance Camp? I remember seeing something about this several years ago and if I remember right there were a very limited amount of spaces and the selection was based on your times/ top 10 places.
Just curious. From the article it sounded like a great opportunity and a lot of fun.
2) Dr. G. calculates your lactate clearance rate which is how quickly you clear lactic acid from your muscles. This is most useful at a multi-event meet and or three day meet where you have multiple swims. As a result of the testing I need about 20 minutes of warm down to clear. Most people warm down about 200 yards and call it quits. But if you know how quickly (or slowly) you clear, this can be useful.

It gives a good explanation of lactate clearance and why it's important.
