There is a method, which is referred to as the Rushall method which Michael Andrew uses.
Was wondering if you had any critique about this. If this sort of training is a good idea and what are the problems.
Would this also be good for longer events? Like the 400 IM?
Thanks!
I'm also curious to see how he countinues to improve as he matures and if his Ultra Short Training At Race Pace will hold up and enable him to become a world class swimmer and a serious contender at 2016 trials.
This may not prove anything, but I started USRPT in September training for the 400 free SCM. I don't do any garbage yardage. No kicking, no pulling, no toys. Only a warm up and one or two USRPT sets a day.
I just swam my fastest 400 free time in three years in our SCM championship meet, and was 7 seconds faster than last year. I'm 64.
