Freestyle
• A swimmer who can successfully stay on top of the water can have more efficiency because there is less surface area for the water to grab on to.
• The term “Dry Back” can be used as a descriptive goal for athletes to use during a certain set or drill.

Backstroke • Backstroke is predominately becoming flatter
– The lack of rotation means a higher need for a straight back push down the body
– Gliding on your back does not give you the same Distance Per Stroke effect that Freestyle does. • Key focus needs to be on getting the elbow and forearm into the
right place so that the straight back pull can be highly effective

Breaststroke
• The top athletes in the world have a great understanding of energy traveling from the pull down into the kick.
– This flow allows the kick to have more power
– Think of a whip and the mechanics behind it.
• Power through the handle translates to speed at the tail

Butterfly • Just like Backstroke, butterfly is turning into a
flatter and longer stroke.
• The most important factor of butterfly are the catch, the connection of the release with the kick to support the breath, and the recovery that throws a swimmer forward into their line
• “CPR – Catch, Pull, Recovery. All while holding a tempo”

• Feeling the flow of the water
• Developing Speed and Power from our drills

Freestyle: Straight Arm Vs. Bent Arm:
Recovery and Catch • Straight Arm
– More Speed going into the entry – Higher tempo – Less Control over the water – Roll of the body adds to the force of the pull – Harder to maintain for longer races
• Bent arm recovery – More control going into the catch phase – Slower tempo – Allows hips to add torque into the pull – Can maintain for longer swims i.e. Aerobic Capacity sets

Pelvic Tilt for Backstroke • The pelvic tilt aims the kick up with a relaxed
form
– At the end of the race when a swimmer becomes fatigued this simple adjustment will prevent the feet from dropping .

Breaststroke: The Pull into the Kick
• The pull has a distinctive outward scull
• The breath is not performed by lifting the head, it is on the inward part of the pull
Be cautious:
• Head lifts for the breath early – Head gets out of line early the roll of the body into the
timing of the kick could be thrown off
• Pulling back too far – Pulling back too far could cause the body to lift up too high

Getting to the Line
• Because Breaststroke requires you to break the surface every stroke pushing forward through the kick the water will cause a massive amount of resistance that can only be off set by a tight and straight line.
• It is already such a large part of our training philosophy that our young athletes are picking up acknowledgement from growing up with such a large focus on it

Butterfly: Engaging the Catch
• Just like freestyle the hand position of the
catch should be straight backwards. This allows the swimmer to grasp and hold on to the water .

Recovery • Relaxed yet controlled • Getting the hand to the forward position with the
fingertips ready to glide momentarily and then into the catch can get eat swimmer a couple more inched with every stroke

The Simplicity of Training
• A simple set performed well is better than a complicated set done poorly
• 8 x Kick on the wall-Flip W to cone Swim build Last 10 yards fast!
• Set Focus: – Tightness of their turn – Mandatory Underwater distance and comfort – Control of speed and energy output – Great race pace finishes
• Find the difference between writing your athletes a practice and giving them a purpose

Generating Power vs. Having strength
• Strength: Swimmer #1 can bench press 200 pounds but it takes him 40 seconds to push it up.
• Power: Swimmer #2 can bench press 200 pounds but it takes him 5 seconds to push him up.

Maintaining Stroke • Cullen Jones
– Stroke Rate of 1.0 = holding the most efficient amount of water
– Stroke Rate of .95 = Hand starts to slide through the water
– Stroke Rate of 1.05 = Stroke Rate too slow and will not go as fast.
