His dad did a good podcast with Jack Kelly. Sounds like he doesn’t doo massive volume - averages about 24 hours a week and swims 4 times, but usually 6km or so each swim. With all the buzz about the “Norwegian Method” why aren’t we hearing more about the “laidlow method”?
It's like fad diets. Hard to sell a diet that says eat healthy food and exercise in moderation. Easy to sell a method that says it has the secret.
24h/w though seems wildly low for someone at that level.
24 hours per week is a lot of volume. Where do you get the "wildly low" ? any numbers, stats or math to argue your point or total Jack Kelly/Trump hyperbole type of statement?
I really liked the documentary, it was really well made. I didn't find it tone deaf in regard to the women's race.
Most info puts top tier pros training around 30hrs/wk. See links below from pg 1 of google. Cody Beals even says "This works out to a total training volume of about 22-24 hours per week. My training tends to be on the lower volume, higher intensity side compared to my peers."
And that's not a Trump statement. A Trump statement would be "Have you heard this guy, Sam Laid--Low? This triathlon? Very good, very good triathlete. My uncle was a triathlete-good genes-they run in the family you know. It's true. It's true. But you look at this guy Laid-Low, you look at him and you say 'he's not French?"- trust me I know my French people. My uncle, John Trump, he really would give this kid a run for his money. He only trains what? He says 20 hours? Fellas, fellas."

24h/w equals 1248 hours/year. Its hard to see that as somewhat close to low. But its difficult to know what people mean when they say how much they train per week. Its normal to share the big volume weeks and not the true average
