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'm gonna try to get a coach that I can get to look at my starts and turns.
I wanna see how fast I can improve in a year and a half using this technique.
As I am 15 years old, nearing 16,
Would you say its reasonable to aim for
100 free 57 mid to 48 high
50 Free 26 low to 21 high
100 ***: 1:15 ( Not much training in this at all) to 1:00/
I realize its impossible to give a straightforward 'this is how much you can lose by this time.' as there are uncontrollable factors, but do you think this is at least possible?
As you mentioned, there are a lot of unknown factors. Your goals are lofty, but within the realm of possibility. You may need to do two-a-days to make that much progress. And you're likely to need technique coaching, as well. But if you implement an strict USRPT training regimen and stick to it for a year and a half, you will almost undoubtedly improve your speed substantially.
