Then the next 12 months i spent walking 250-350 miles per month. ive dropped closing in on 85lbs, with no steroids, no trainer, no gym membership, etc. just me , waking up at 5-6AM, and committing to the task.

My favorite thing from the acceleration example they are talking about, is when you are SO hungover (I don't drink much anymore, but remember this feeling) and your body doesn't even trust you to drink water the next day and you puke it back up. You're so dehydrated and so hungry. The moment you're FINALLY able to drink water and keep it down: such an amazing feeling! Then finally able to eat a meal too. Feels so good!

People don’t get what swimming competitively does to your body. You will be beat down and broken physically and mentally after weeks of double training sessions. And to those who say you can’t get injured, you can; rotator cuff, shoulder ligaments, hip and knee injuries, and believe it or not running into walls during backstroke is possible (if the flags that tell you you’re nearing the wall are taken down mid-swim). My brother was swimming and the divers started practicing, so they removed the flags when he was going down the lane, and on the way back there were no flags to tell him to turn off the wall and he knocked himself out cold on the wall.

Velocity vs acceleration analogy is awesome. Exact reason Jesse Itzler had Goggins stay with him. Nothing was bad about his habits, just wanted to feel that life acceleration instead staying at constant velocity. Love it

When I lived in Hawaii, I swam from Sunset Beach to Waimea Bay... about 3 miles. I left unaided without telling anyone. Back then, I had no idea how many BIG tiger sharks cruise the outer reefs.... YIKES ! The hardest part about endurance swimming... for me... was my MIND. There's nothing to look at. No distractions. You have nothing to concentrate on like riding a bike or running. It's like dreaming while you're awake. It's like solitary confinement.... I literally start to dread the training because of the crazy thoughts and not the endurance. The 90 minutes of swimming becomes physically EASY, almost relaxing. But.... You can't control your mind. If you tell yourself to stop thinking about something, you will stop..... for a few moments. But without noticing it, you're right back to thinking about it again. There's no "off switch". You can't use your phone for distraction. You can't talk to someone. I just had to quit and switched to cycling. Then you see things... trees, curbs, pot holes, cars, people, etc... Your mind can't "SLIP OFF".

[@ln5747]

@@Ok-551 I would find that surprising if you were doing that week in and week out rather than some high mileage weeks. Olympic swimmers tend to max out about 70/80k a week, aside from maybe very odd high mileage weeks. To swim 100k a week you'd typically have to be doing 2 sessions a day 7 days a week every week. I've never known anyone to do that, including many Olympians.

[@Ok-551]

@@ln5747 I said “winter training”. Late 80’s and 90’s we’re like that. 100k week over Xmas break. 100x100 on the 1:10 New Year’s Day. And I too trained many gold medalists. Regular season was more like 12-13k a day, 4- 5 in the am, 8-10 in the PM, 3 hrs on Saturday Am. Totally overtrained, now they do half that and cross train more. My club coach was notorious for ruining shoulders.

[@Sam-gn6og]

that cadence of 90 strokes per minutes is a function of how tall the person, the shorter the person, the fastest the strokes. So the strokes themselves aren't indicative of anything.....maintaining speed (Stamina) is more accurate measure of performance

[@iICOMINANDESIi]

I am not a swimmer but I think she was able to do 90 strokes a minute because she is shorter and has shorter arms so her arm movement is shorter which means it takes her less time to complete one stroke so she is able to get more strokes in, I assume that if she would have Michael Phelps's arms it would have been more difficult to complete 90 strokes a minute because every stroke would take a lot longer. And I don't mean to take anything away from what she achieved but only to understand how she might have achieved something so remarkable.
