I would love to read your taper schedules for a championship meet. With scm season underway and training hard core, what is your favorite taper workouts and duration?
Assume your normal training routine is 8 - 11; 3000 yard workouts a week with one - two dry-land training a week.
Thank you in advance for your input or links!!!

if you want to follow a whole season:
SCY 2008 is one of my better ones
it started:
Tuesday Dec 4th, 2007
Friday March 28th, 2008
I did a lot of speed and strength work that season.
how you taper, always depends on the work you did that season and what works best for you
Thanks for your replies!!!
One of my teammates told me that our team doesn't necessarily do a taper, so I may be on my own.
I swim 10 -11 times a week (2500 - 3500 yards a workout), try to ride the lifecycle 3x's a week aerobically and lift 2x's a week. Needless to say i am pretty exhausted all of the time. I take Sunday's off to rest.
I really want to try to go into the SPMA scm championship meet in Long Beach rested and tapered so I will follow your examples.
