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!
Thanks, I got lucky... :)
Not at all! I was so lucky to be there to witness it! It was nice speaking to you too, Glenn, after the meet. Our conversation encouraged me to continue down the USRPT road for at least this year to see where it leads for me. I'm already getting much faster in practice, though it didn't translate for me in the 400 on Sunday (I didn't swim very smart on that one), after only a couple months of doing USRPT.
Glenn, I think you've written it here in this thread before, but could you post your workout schedule again? I believe it's something like:
Monday - 2 x (30 x 50yd)
Tuesday - 2 x (40 x 25yd)
Wednesday - 2 x (30 x 75yd)
Thursday - 2 x (40 x 25yd)
Friday - 2 x (30 x 50yd)
Saturday - Off
Sunday - Off
All of that on 15s (for the 25s) to 20s (for the 50s and 75s) rest at your 400SCM race pace. Is that about right?
