Has anyone used any of the strength training plans from this book by David Salo? I had planned to follow this starting in January, but when it came right down to it, the plans seemed nebulous and possibly a bit out of date compared to other plans I had available (non swim specific). So I went with another option for the time being.
Any thoughts, opinions?
Maybe. I don't know how to consistently interpret subjective impressions of how "trashed" or "wiped out" swimmers are. Some people are accurate, others think DOMS is an illness.
I suspect there is an acclimation period to DOMs for new lifters. It can seem extremely unpleasant at first. New lifters may overdo it initially as well. I know I have been guilty of doing too many exercises/reps in one session, which can lead to feeling "trashed."
