coachsci.sdsu.edu/.../ultra40a.pdf 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 do a 400 warm-up. My Monday and Friday workout is 2 x (30 x 50) on :50 holding :32 skip if missed (SCY). i did this workout today. 4th failure on the 1st round was at 17. at 13 on the 2nd round. NOT EASY AT ALL!!! the 400 warmup didnt seem enough for me. i bounced back after the rest from the failure pretty good, but then fell off quickly again. mentally its a total mess up never went into a set before knowing i would fail before the end. steve
