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!

Dr. Rushall agrees with you when it comes to swimmers still learning the fundamentals - drills, aerobic swimming, fins, bouys, etc are all OK. But these days there are many 10 and unders who already have the fundamentals. There are 10 and unders going under 1 min. for 100 scy free. Drills and toys and garbage yardage would only hurt these top-notch young age groupers.
