was watching a swimming on tv recently and rowdy gaines was comenting on natalie coughlin's comeback. he stated that for every day off in swimming it takes about 1/2 day to get it back. i was curious if there was any other sport that demanded this type of training to recover because of time off. i found that comment fascinating.
my job forces moderate breaks in my trainig, when i am able to get back in the pool, i am always recovering or playing catch up. now i must say that i absolutely love pushing myself to regain my times, stroke, power etc.
any comments
