so, then you use the incerased drag sets sparingly, so the changed body position doesn't become secod nature, but you still have some increased resistance sets in your workout to challenge the muscles.
My muscles get challenged enough on sets with "normal" amounts of drag!
tjburk: thanks for the clarification, but I still don't think these methods add anything, but I can see the appeal if it adds some variety to workouts. And, no, I don't coach, but that doesn't mean I don't know anything about coaching.
One thing that just struck me as funny: why do people think it's so strange for a man to wear a woman's suit anyway? Heck, that's pretty much like men's suits looked like back in the day. Think about the picture of JFK when he swam for Harvard! Now if you could get your hands on some of those suits--that would give you some extra drag! You would also be required to swim without goggles :)
