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!

    Alright since I'm sleepy and really want to get back into this kind of training I'm going to ask a few questions which will probably seem very simple to you guys How should I go about scheduling this kind of training in? If I'm training 3 events, 50 free 100 free and 100 *** as in what's day of the weak? So for 50 work I was gonna do 10 x 50s max effort holding Around 31-32 on 1:30. And them afterward I was gonna do USRPT training set for my 100. I wanna swim a 55 second hundred free but since it was my first workout I was thinking about going 30 x 25 trying to hold 15 seconds with 10 seconds of rest. So I'd be going on 25's. Every time if can't hit the interval I rest one set. If I have to rest 2 intervals in a row the set is done and if I have to do 4 misses total the set is done. Does that sound about right forth goal?
