Traditional sprint swimmers log 30-60km per week in the pool. Cam McEvoy, who broke the 50m freestyle world record, trains just 2-3km per week — roughly 5-10% of the conventional volume. He replaces pool time with dry-land strength work, recovery, and highly specific race-pace intervals, betting that intent beats mileage for sprint events.
