I am looking to see what everyone out there is doing for there dryland program or strength program. I work at a facility called IHPSWIM and we take a functional approach to our training. We are taking the intensity to the next level since taper is right around the corner, Here is what we did yesterday with the Fort Lauderdale aquatics of Boca Raton. Leg Circuit 3 x 24 squats 24 lunges 24 split jumps 12 jump squats (we do this twice through non - stop in under 2:30) That is a total of 6 sets - killer leg workout! We finished with some core work and some rope climbing. What are you guys doing out there or what questions do you have? Grif Fig Founder of IHPSWIM

  • This is exactly what I am trying to understand. What are the relative merits of causing more fatigue, versus alternating exercises so that you do each one with less fatiigue? When you're trying to cause more fatigue - and seeing what your body can handle - you're training more so for endurance (less rest between sets). When you're alternating - you're training more so for strength and or power (depending on your interval - more rest)
