During our swimming careers we have all experienced the feeling of "being in-shape" and not quite "in-shape".
My question is this; From a physiological or Kinesiological standpoint, what is happening in your body when you can so easily go from being in-shape to losing that in a matter of a week or two?
I'm an old masters swimmer now but even swimming High School, Club or College whenever I would go on a vacation or get sick for a week, it took two - three weeks to get back to where I was before the vacation or sickness?
What is happening in our body when we can swim a 1:07 BR and then two weeks later can't break 1:10???
Thanks in advance for your answers and opinions...

Yes, Jim, the number one activity of people with excellent social skills is telling other people how bad their social skills are.
Anyway, regarding "biorhythms." It's in quotes because it came up with no context or explanation. It is literally meaningless in this conversation. I see "bio" in there, along with "rhythm." I'll grant you that if we want to foster acceptance and harmony here, we can indeed agree that the original question raises issues of how biology changes over time. However, I don't think stating the most obvious thing possible is a very harmonious way to respond to a valid comment about the importance of the nervous system in deconditioning. Especially when the most obvious thing possible is restated as, yes, pseudoscience.
