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!!!!!
Without unlocking this veil, could you go so far as to mention if training, compared to blogs few years back, has changed somewhat, moderately, a lot, or something else?
I wasn't aware that he blogged his workouts, so I can't say what that content looks like versus what he does now. I can say that I rarely see him do any more than 50 yards straight, but again my view is mostly from in the water while I am working out! He does A LOT of stretching. Sometimes he has arrived on deck right after I have started my warm-up, and I'll be halfway through my main set and he still hasn't gotten in the water. Just stretching out on the deck!
EDIT: I should amend my comment about only seeing him do 50s. Looks like the last time we worked out together was Friday, August 17, 2018. We did the a set of 75s. Workout is here:

I know Doug likes his breath control sets!
