GoSwim Gold58.66 freestyle by a 12year swimmer
Start New Topic|
Could you believe that in this past nationals here in the Netherlands there is a girl 12years and did the 100freestyle in 0.58.66...?????.....pfffffff |

Wow. |
|
|
Yeah..she is bigger then my dad!!!!....such power and technique...amazing!!!! |
|

Glad to hear she's doing it with technique as well. So often in the UK we see big kids trouncing little ones until they reach puberty but then giving up when they get caught by the others who happen to grow at a later stage, because they can't fall back on technique to help them go quicker. Hope your own training and competition is going well, Juliette |

My training is going well....and the competition is also going good...not complaining,...but such swimmers keep me sharp and give me a sense that you've still got to be working on yourself and not to pay to much attention on such swimmer,...look at them sideways,...thats all....

It is amazing. I hope for her that she can continue improving though. Sometimes swimmers just stop improving and have the same time for ages... until they give up. |

Asolutely, Sprinter, which is why her cioach needs to keep stressing technique. There is nothing more frustrating for a coach than seeing talent wastes |

Juliette, was it 100 meters?.. Surprisingly fast.. Huge advantage, big body, big feet.. You're intelligent Juliette to not let yourself being influenced. I wish you good luck and a lot of fun with your training. Heb je al op de schaats gestaan? 11 steden koorts?.. |
