Hardest Swim Set: 44*x100 LCM on 1:15 (My team mates failed that day, but I succeeded. Had the best set of my life.)

44*note (no caffeine, Christmas training) Just for clarity, once a set like that starts. It becomes a individual affair. There is no stopping to lift up your team mates during such an event.

Notes

When I was in college, I was not allowed to lift heavy. That was my coach’s choice. Not mine. I trusted their experience and wisdom at that time, as we were the best in the nation.

I do not find the abuse of athletes in any sport amusing.

My achievements and current fitness level came from my own personal and practical experience. A foundation built from decades of discipline in and out of the pool while growing up.

What do I listen to when I work out? I listen to my inner Co-pilot: a 2000+ lb. Battle Cat.

The same discipline that built these numbers is what I bring to everything else I create — whether that's a scientific paper, a game design critique, or a world I create. The arena teaches you one thing above everything else: results are the only honest language. That standard does not change when I leave the gym.
