Total Conditioning for Swimming?

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to follow this starting in January, but when it came right down to it, the plans seemed nebulous and possibly a bit out of date compared to other plans I had available (non swim specific).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?

    Look, Jazz Hands, I never quit a workout. :) Never. yeah, glycogen depletion it probably was. But I was run down and ragged. I'm trying to figure out the balance here. I'm a developing swimmer and athlete. Those that know me IRL know that I lift intensely and swim with all I have. I do believe, and those that coach me concur, that I am inclined to err on the side of intensity and not wussiness.
