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?

I don't train near hard enough for this to matter, ...
Are you sure? I used to think that too, but now I am suspicious that there is a discernable difference - lots of stairs = not so speedy in the pool. Here is a related observation: There is a small flight of stairs on the way to the pool that I can't avoid. On days when I find myself spontaneously going up two-(or 3)-at-a-time, I typically find that I have a lot more zip in the pool too. The stairs are like a measure of how tired I am.
