I'm sure some of you have been reading Dennis Baker's "A Day in the Life" series. For those who haven't, it's a chance to see what this guy goes through.
I've never met Dennis, but I have heard stories. To read that he does sets of 300s fly is astounding. I know he's been doing that all his life, but to have the drive to do it alone is great.
I must say, though, that his entries almost sound a little like bragging.
That said, to go 8x100 SCM free on 1:10 and call it recovery is remarkable for anyone, much less a 45-year-old man.
Any other thoughts?
Paul- I fear that Dennis, if faced with taking more rest before a major meet, would start twitching and wondering 'what do I do with all this spare time?'
Peter.....he and quite a few other folks who swim masters! It really is incredible how many people I meet who don't understand tapering or do understand but refuse to do it....for whatever reason. Fine with me if they are happy with their results.....
