Here's a simple proposal guys.
Your aerobic/anaerobic balance =
Log(T1/T2) / Log(D1/D2)
Where T1 and T2 are two personal best times expressed in seconds for two different distances, D1 and D2.
Compute yours, and compare it with what it was last year, next year, later in the season etc.... Then compare it to your idols'.
Let's get some butterfly representation in here... all LCM... for myself: my 100 time from 2008 Portland Nationals (1:04.65) and my 200 time from 2009 NW LCM Zones (2:25.76). For Michael Phelps, his WR's from 2009 Worlds in Rome (49.82 & 1:51.51). For Dennis Baker, the fastest times I could find from his attempts to make Olympic Trials in 2008 at age 46 (58.16 & 2:04.07).
Dennis Baker: 1.093
Michael Phelps: 1.162
That Guy: 1.173
