I don't know. It seems like Popov did pretty well with a "less is more" approach to training. So did Dara. Granted, MP swims middle distance events, but I think the jury is out as far as mega yardage goes. Like everything else in life, I think it works for some, but not for everyone. It makes you wonder, though, if his greatest swimming skill is his capacity to endure monotony. To do anything, even sex with an endless alternating harem of Islamic virgins, for 365 days a year, five years in a row, might get just a wee bit old. Or at least lead to all manner of overuse syndromes...
