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'd be willing to call it right now: Michael Andrew won't ever make finals at Olympic Trials, and it's directly because of his dad's devotion to doing nothing but Rushall sets.
I think this is ridiculous. He is already fast enough to make finals at olympic trials. His 100 *** time would have tied him for 4th at trials in 2012 and his 100 fly, 200 IM and 50 free times would also have placed him in the finals in 2012 in those events. I think he has almost no chance of qualifying for the Olympics this year but he already has a very good chance of making more than one final even if he doesn't get any faster this year.
