I'm trying to determine what level of strength is required to be a good sprinter (i.e. 100 free).
Could you list your max repetitions of push ups, pull ups and dips? This would give me some assesment on power to weight ratio and strength endurance.
Also, what is your max bench press if you know it? or reps of 225 lbs. I'm curious about what level of pure strength sprinters have.
I think I am deficient mostly in technique and then strength endurance but maybe this post would show me I need weight room work.
Coughlin is an interesting case. She is small for a sprinter,but she has the best SDK anyone has ever had,she is just unbelievably fast underwater. The really unbelievable one was Eggezegy(spelling?) She was just"a wee slip of a lass" but nearly as fast as Coughlin in the 100 BK and still holds the 200 BK WR.
