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to follow this starting in January, but when it came right down to it, the plans seemed nebulous and possibly a bit out of date compared to other plans I had available (non swim specific).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

    From what I can tell, I don't think even Jazz lifts to complete failure; I think I remember him saying once that he stops a set when the speed/rate of his reps decrease below a certain amount. Generally, yeah. I don't routinely do the big heavy lifts to failure. I think it's nice with lighter stuff and isolation.
