Ultra Short Training Rushall

There are HIT workouts on the forum which seem to incorporate all of the comments below. Ultra-short training at race-pace: • Is the only form of training that develops race-relevant (specific) energy supply and techniques. • Produces levels of physiological adaptation in all three metabolic energy systems that exceed those developed by other forms of traditional swimming program activities. • Produces training effects faster than other forms of traditional swimming programs because it produces the greatest volume of race-relevant stimuli. • Is sensitive to overreaching and overtraining because its continuation is governed by swimmer performance declines and inabilities to recover.
