	Lisa posted November 28 at 12:27pm. As a former swimmer for Mr Shoulberg in the 70's and 80's I can honestly say his old school approach is the best approach there is. We took 20+ swimmers to '82 long course nats (on a team of about 60 swimmers) and not a single one of us had an injury caused by swimming. I tried to rehab two genetically bad knees for a year and eventually had reconstructive surgery. Without Shoulberg's old school approach both physically and mentally I would have never achieved All-American status for four years in breaststroke events in college. The people who "burned out" never really wanted to be that good anyway and would have left the sport no matter where they swam. Ask just about anyone who has ever swum at Germantown who inspired them the most in life and who their hero is and they will tell you Shoulberg.
	Coach Will posted November 13 at 11:39am. Anyone know where I can get some of the straps that they use for the reverse pull-ups and knee-ups? we have a simliar set-up where we could use them at our pool. Thanks for any help.
	Peddie Swimmer posted November 3 at 9:18pm. flowswimming needs some videos of peddie's dryland.
	Anonymous Coward posted November 3 at 11:37am. his name is James McEldrew, you can look it up on US swimming, he has Junior cuts and is a Soph at GA
	Dude posted November 2 at 6:44pm. how fast is this guy?
	Jeff Grace posted November 1 at 9:28pm. Simple, creative and finding a way to have no limitations - an very obvious reasons why Shoulberg is one of the best coaches of his generation. Great stuff!
	Darren Grose posted November 1 at 8:19pm. I love watching dryland videos. I wish my gym had vasa trainers.
	Elle posted October 31 at 7:14pm. Shoulberg is so old school. I can't decide whether that's good or bad. Does this kind of stuff just lead to burnout/injuries down the road? Or is it stuff that just makes you really mentally tough? Or both?
	CM$ posted October 30 at 11:51am. excellent dryland. great full body movements with core stability relevant to what's going on in the water.
	Circus Believer posted October 29 at 10:37pm. His circus approach is successful! Why not learn from one of the best? Even the dog is not ruffled because he's seen it work!
	Anonymous Coward posted October 29 at 7:42pm. haha whose dog is that
	Anonymous Coward posted October 29 at 7:12pm. Damn, I wish Jimmy wore a speedo for me sometime...so hot!
	Dog Fan posted October 29 at 6:36pm. Love the dog's cameo appearances
	In Time posted October 29 at 6:09pm. calm calm. i'm sure that once the season and training gets more serious we will see more pool videos from garret. right now teams are still transitioning from more dryland and less pool time to more pool and less dryland. i have confidence that we are gonna see some pretty nasty sets in november and december.
	Tizzoswmer posted October 29 at 4:21pm. can we see more pool sets and not all dryland??????
	Jimmy Morris posted October 29 at 4:04pm. I love vasa trainers. Those were the only drylands I could really do, due to some ankle issues.
	Omg Lolz posted October 29 at 1:05pm. the vasa stuff reminds me of the total gym commercials with chuck norris. super cool exercises, though.
	Anonymous Coward posted October 29 at 9:49am. I started using the rings/straps with my athletes this year and love it
	Impressed posted October 29 at 8:44am. Wow, these are some really great dryland ideas! I like how they use the vasa in so many different ways!
	Taylor posted October 29 at 7:39am. what a cool video although the rope is much easier when you use your feet
