Anyone out there read it or tried it? Got any comments? I wonder if it really works? The chapter titled: How I Learned to Swim Effortlessly in 10 Days where he shares how he went from a struggling beginner swimmer (who could barely swim 2 lengths in a pool) to improving his technique and being able to complete a 2,500 meter open water swim.

Tue Mar 15th, 2011 weights at world gym shifted to the SPEED PHASE now working on getting stronger and faster for Zones and Nats. I don't really think of this as tapering. I'll do some gentle aerobic training to maintain conditioning and some longer fast swims.
