Phelps wins again, but Lochte has more impressive night at trials

“A significant part of Lochte’s training has been weight work, both the Strongman version, where he flips tractor tires, heaves beer kegs in the air and whips heavy ropes, and more traditional power circuits that include squats and Olympic lifts like cleans and snatches and jerks. “Basically everything is designed to make him a better jumper because jumping is highly correlated to better starts, better walls and a great streamlined dolphin kick,” says Matt Delancey, Lochte’s strength coach at Florida.”
