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 personally don't like hypoxic sets and don't do them.
Very interesting coming from you! I recall Dave Berkoff mentioning doing ridiculous breath control sets in the '80s under Bernal. Did you do this kind of training in those days?
