Significant results in the water!!

Yesterday saw the last session of our current 6 week block of Swim Stroke Correction Clinics. We are so impressed by the changes to all of the athletes who attended this course. Throughout our Coached structured weekly drills and swim sets we have seen our  swimmers undergo some serious transformations.

Whatever their starting point, everyone developed their Breathing, Rotation, Hand Entry, Catch & Pull Through, Body Position, Push Phase, Recovery Phase and Kick and therefore their propulsion & efficiency.

We had swimmers who managed to get their time per hundred meters down from 1.40 to 1.22.

We worked on everyone's Stroke Rate with the biggest change being an adjustment over the 6 weeks from 45 strokes per minute to 71. This is a dramatic change and one that has very positively affected their propulsion, efficiency & swim speed.

We have been working on another clients CSS (Critical Swim Speed, or Threshold Pace) over the last 4 weeks with fantastic results. Everyone should know their CSS pace and complete one CSS set a week. After 4 weeks of focusing on this important and usually neglected training zone this swimmer got a Personal Best in both time trial tests on the last day of the course. They subsequently moved their CSS pace from 1.37 to 1.33 in 1 month. This is a Great result.

So next week we move onto our ALL NEW ATHELITE SQUAD SWIM SESSIONS.
