  • Cherry picker Beza, did read the whole post including this part: I don't think that VO2 max enters into it all that much. There isn't a very close relationship at all between VO2 max and performance in swimming (unlike running and cycling and x-c skiing, where there is a significant relationship). It's more related to the "redness" of the swimming muscles...how many capillaries, how many mitochondria, how much myoglobin (all things which make red muscle red). So, read the whole post before you go off bragging. I find it completely humorous that you can't provide your own data and have to rely on others to do it for you. And, even when they do, you misquote them and take only minor parts to support your theory.
