Florida AM Sprint Workout with Caeleb Dressel, Josh Liendo, & More | PRACTICE + PANCAKES 

Is any submaximal effort OK? How do you define an exercise as "not helping"? What objective measurements are being considered? How do you deal with a swimmer who is improving, but not doing what you would suggest they do? Are all swimmers who swim a certain event to be trained exactly alike? If so, who determines that and what studies show exactly what to do? Why doesn't USA Swimming just hand out a sheet for all coaches in the country to copy if there is one way?...or pick certain things off a prescribed "OK to do" list. Is this practice the correct practice that nails the exact best practices for elite sprinting or will someone comment about this practice as "old school" in 20 years? What will the practice look like in 20 years? Maybe we'll circle around and realize some things from the past were actually pretty good and some things were hype train of the day. I agree with you and think this practice looks awesome (and I've certainly done many sets that I don't think helped me), but I think it's really hard to judge what is best. I personally observe that there are many paths to success. Yardage (volume) does have a place in many protocols, so I hate to see it put in a negative light without more detail.

@@BenOlszewski You're putting words in his mouth that he didn't say and you're being stubborn and emotional. Who's hurting you?

@@phil5037 I asked questions, just like you are asking questions. I'll answer you. No one is hurting me physically. I have emotional pain from childhood though.

I would agree and disagree. I went to a college with a bad coach and the sprint workouts were all sprinting. That doesn't help if you don't do yards to build strength and muscular endurance. all of the sprinters had no back half to their 50 or 100. You need the yards, but you need to do sprint stimulus.

@@BenOlszewski The swimming community certainly does not lack passion! I love it! I also appreciate having a discussion of opposing views. My thoughts on this subject are too long for a RU-vid comment, but I think the swimming community should at least ask themselves, “Do the track sprinters run 10K-15K in practice everyday? Why do the sprinters in swimming do that?”

Practice 😭

which one is he?

Do you take a shower and drink water? Before and after training sessions I take the shower and drink water just a little bit but more after the end of session

shower right after swim... there are even anti-chlorine shower gels and shampoos for the shower after swim to help getting rid of chlorine

Oil in water emulsions. Eucerin + vasoline.

Its american so they are training yards, no idea why they've got Dressel doing yards but I guess it's so he can train harder with the college kids.

One course is set to meters and one is yards

@@FloatingProcess nope it's split into two 25 yard pools. They have the ability to take out the bulkhead and make it 50 meters but they didn't do that here.

@@sethaldrich6902 I guess someone like him could train even in 20 yard or 30 yard and be able to switch to meters when he needs...

When it is set to yards there is a bigger gap. I watched practice that week. One was meters and one was yards.

The Florida training facility has a 50m pool inside (usually split into 2 25-yd pools) and a 50m pool outside right next to each other. Both pools are used during most practices. So even though this was a yards practice, he's training meters at least a few times per week

@@SwimSwamTV Also, Phelps used yard pools in his training too...
