  • Originally posted by Ion Beza Well it is documented that it worked like this for Rowdy Gaines, Steve Crocker, Ed Moses and others. That is a circular argument, Ion. You are assuming that their summer training developed VO2Max, and that VO2Max is thus responsible for their swims. Maybe you would be so clear as to state how Rowdy Gaines, Steve Crocker, Ed Moses and others support your point that a few summer leagues leads to a lifelong increase in VO2Max. (Since this is data to support your theory, do not use your theory during this explanation. That way you avoid a circular argument.)
