I've just heard from an EN member that EN coaching promotes NOT swimming in the off-season AT ALL and that it is a waste of time that could be spent cycling and running. Is this true? If so, what is the theory behind it. The EN member also told me that the coaches there say that, "anyone who swims faster than a 1:45 per 100 meters does not need to swim in the off-season".
I just want want to know if this is true or not and the reasons why if it is true. Last I heard triathlons were comprised of 3 sports, swimming being one of them.
