If I had read this article first, I might have structured the set differently, only kicking AFAP 12.5yds, then easy (active rest?) to the wall. Then rest maybe 10s and take off again. Does that seem like a reasonable application of this ultra-short technique to my kick set?
Last year after reading a Rushall or similar paper, I did 10s AFAP, 20s ez kick using a tempo trainer and kick board. Fade was not a problem.
I attempted the same approach (10 s AFAP/ 20s ez) swimming, but failed miserably. I believe that this was because there is no limit on breathing kicking with a board, but freestyle there is.
