Susan trains smarter/harder in 3x swim workouts a week than you can imagine.
...low yardage high intensity training is highly effective if your goals are clear. There is no need what so ever as a competitive masters swimmer to train at the volume 95% train at.
It seems that the majority of masters with top ten times do both...whether it be practicing alongside of "the kids"...or focusing on 'all out' one lap sprints. Training with intensity and a purpose appears to be the winning formula.
It's always inspirational to hear about a '40 something' going as fast as they did in their early twenties.
