Local swimmer to be featured on ESPNs Outside the Lines this morning
https://swimswam.com/michael-andrew-...e-the-lines-2/

Folks may not realize this, but the next great American swimming phenom lives just outside of Stull, KS (between Topeka and Lawrence).

Michael Andrew is perhaps the most amazing swimmer I have ever seen. When all is said and done, he will leave Phelps in the dust. He is now 16 (broke over 80 age group records, more than any other swimmer in history), turned pro at 14, and trains in an above ground pool in his backyard (albeit, it is a very nice, enclosed above ground pool). Great kid, great family; really wonderful people who are very down to earth.

Thing is: he is the biggest controversy in swimming in a generation because of the way he trains. Traditional swimming orthodoxy says to be good, not even great, you need to put in thousands of yards per day in the pool.

Michael is the face of a training technique called, "Ultra Short Race Paced Training" or USRPT for short. It turns traditional training methods on its head. The swimming world is kind of freaking out about it, because if it works, it is really bad for business for a lot of the swim world. USA Swimming has even funded quite a few studies to prove it doesn't work.

The thing is: USRPT works.

Here is 2 time Olympic Gold Medalist Josh Davis talking about it:

How is this different from doing sprints to build your long distance endurance?

I've seen him swim a few times. He's a big kid and he's a dominant swimmer. I'm looking forward to watching this. Thanks for the link, FE.

He's from Stull, Kansas? That place is a gateway to hell--
