I have a new ( young ) coach. He includes breath control sets. Does any one else think this could be dangerous for older (56 years old) swimmers? My MD thought it was crazy. I have noticed quite a few Masters swimmers dying from strokes. An old coach of mine said USA Swimming had banned hypoxic training for kids for a while.
I do not do hypoxic sets when they are called in workouts.
We have 1 person (me usually) per lane watch the others in their lane while they do them in case they pass out. :angel:
