Warner hypothesizes that better training regimens are the explanation for why more and more competitive swimmers are continuing to compete long beyond their university years.

Young proposes a different hypothesis for the increased longetivity of competitive swimming careers. Before, swimmers couldn’t make a living at their sport, so had to quit to get a job. But now, swimmers can make a living at their sport.

Young proposes an alternative explanation for the longetivity of competitive swimming careers.

Warner’s evidence doesn’t undermine his own conclusion. Young simply presents a different explanation that Warner doesn’t consider.

Warner doesn’t actually offer any evidence in favor of his hypothesis. In addition, Young doesn’t present an example of competitive swimmers who don’t have better training regimens or whose better training regimens don’t allow them to stay fitter for a longer time.

Young doesn’t claim that anything is necessary in order to explain the increased longevitiy of competitive swimmers. He simply presents a different hypothesis.

Young doesn’t accuse warner of using circular reasoning (where the conclusion assumes the truth of the premise).

Young offers an alternative explanation for the increased longevity of competitive swimmers. Rather than being a result of better training, it might be due to more swimmers being able to make a living as a swimmer nowadays.
