Lifting for Sprinters vs. Distance Swimmers

[@FunkyFraank]

I’m so glad somebody covers this because not a lot of people know about the differences in training needs and it’s the same for track and field.

[@avocatious6402]

Fantastic topic. Really glad to see videos like these

[@moonradio5972]

more on strength training please! also some vids on high volume vs low volume swimming would be great, because the volumes between different athletes seems to vary ALOT

[@InsidewithBrettHawke]

more coming next week for you

[@moonradio5972]

@@InsidewithBrettHawke i would also love something on mobility :) especially from a scientific perspective

[@efficientrealities960]

Thank you for this 😃 and guest is amazing. Liked and subscribed.

[@InsidewithBrettHawke]

excellent welcome

[@billfash6270]

Loved this interview, especially the part about strength endurance. The rotational component and stroke specific work is neat too.

[@andrewwong8928]

This was amazing!

[@InsidewithBrettHawke]

yeah i loved this interview with Denis

Sprint and distance - two different disciplines within the sport with A game changer and coaching outlook, concepts and interpretation jn training science will be when you can race 50s form strokes and the 800 IM at the Olympics.

[@benjaminkretz6063]

Can anyone tell me how long one should pause between strength and sprint training?

[@seanmcmanus9241]

Did I just hear 100k per week? Jesus Christ.

[@fatcat9109]

Insane amounts of swimming

[@startledmilk6670]

I was around that in high school

[@Slowhand871]

Back in the 70’s that was average. 12-15k day 6 days week and 20k was high for the Olympic class. Lots of shoulder injuries. The race pace is a better way for a lot of swimmers today and Michael Andrew seems to have established that. I see he could use more distance as he falls off a lot at the 200 IM.

[@startledmilk6670]

@@Slowhand871 Micheal Andrew’s training style is ONLY for sprinters. Most of his training is out of the pool. He has absolutely zero endurance. I swam against him in a 200m free final some years back and beat him. Not only was it a final, but I had a 400 free final before the 200 and still beat him. He went out fast as hell, was over a body length and a half ahead then absolutely died. Even then, he swims so little due to his training, it’s high specific to certain swimmers. There are sprinters who will still need a good amount of yardage to perform well.
