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!

  • But building that capacity requires old school aerobic base building. When Michael Andrew is 19 or 20, all the talented kids who are doing huge aerobic non-Rushall sets right now are going to surpass him like he's nothing special. Have you done any USRPT sets? I find them much more aerobically challenging (and I'm an aerobic beast!) than the "old school" aerobic sets that I used to do!
