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!
these do NOT have to be on a race pace interval because when we swim 50's it should be an all out swim from the start - there is NO "pacing" involved. there is pacing in a 50. I Definitely pace 50 LC, and also hold back for 50 yards. At an all out pace I will slow down about 90% of peak speed by 20 the second mark. This is not factoring the peak from the block as my 2nd 25 in a 50 is almost 2 seconds slower than what I can accomplish a 25 from a push. I literally drop dead before the end of a 50
