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!
It's not sprinting, though. It's 400 pace. Not to say that's easy, but it's not all out, either.
Knelson is right. These are not AFAP swims. I am training for the 400, not the 50 or 100. Although my 50 time in the meet was my fastest since the rubber suit era ended.
Yes, a set of 30 x 50 on the :50 holding :32 is tough. It is supposed to be. If you were training for the 100 you would be doing sets of 20 x 50, also not very easy.
