USPRT Workouts?

Any discussion about adding a new category to your online workouts? Great article in the March-April 2019 Swimmer edition about the success of USPRT. As the writer Jim Thornton wrote: "Perhaps it's time to look into yet another protocol. Masters-USPRT." Perhaps it's time to add it to your online workout section!!!!!

  • Hey Glenn! Hope all is well with you in SoCal! Unfortunately, I'm training for a 26.4K open water swim this summer, and I do 600-yard repeats trying to hit EXACTLY 8 minutes, on an 8:20 interval. I consider that USRPT. Just curious if you would agree? And...Hey, Jeff! Looks like you're swimming VERY fast. Good luck in Mesa (I thought I saw that you were going). Wow, 26.4K... I don't do that in a month! If you are going to failure on your 600 repeats I guess that could be considered USRPT! Best of luck.
