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!!!!!

    I hate to break it to you, bud, and this might sound harsh/snarky/snobby to anybody reading too, but :54 per 50 for someone in their mid-20s if I remember correctly is not "efficient" no matter how you choose to do it. YOU. NEED. TO. LEARN. THE. BASICS. Stop screwing around with relatively advanced training modalities until you do so. Sorry if this is the case then I give up. 6 months of squad training combined with a few private lessons, and also a video analysis session only helped me to swim longer without exhausting myself, but I CANNOT BREAK THE 30 MINUTES BARRIER FOR 1500 M. And my coach is trying, imo, to brute-force my sustainable speed because the difference of my all out 100 m time (1:36) and my CSS pace (around 1:58 - 2:00 / 100 m) is too large.
