Do you want to be able to train longer, harder, and better and breakthrough that training plateau in the water????
The best swimmers are the ones who can stay in the pool. Their mindset of training is a marathon approach and not a sprint. However, swimmers who train lap after lap, inevitably deal with over training consequences.
The traditional approach of bands and body weight isn't enough to counteract the repetitive movements of rigorous practice in the water. This is a recipe for recurring injuries, stagnate training results, and sub par performance.
The highest level of competitors have proven the need for real strength training programs that improve swimmers strength, power, explosiveness, and endurance. Use a proven, tried and true program that creates physical resiliency, robustness and durability so that you can train longer and harder in the pool.
Do not wait to get injured or have a bad meet, PREPARE FOR SUCCESS NOW!
Not sure where to start? Train with a program that works with your schedule and needs. Compliment the pool with a logical strength program. Reduce risk of injury, speed up recovery, and add intensity and endurance.
