GoSwim GoldMain Set Monday - Pull Buoy Kicking
0 commentsIncorporating drills in to practice sometimes involves more than just doing the drill.
Backstroke - Pulling on the Lane Line Again
Revisiting an old drill originally posted in 2003, some things just never go out of style.
All Strokes - The Crutch
This may be seen as more rant than drill, and some will like it, and some will not. Either way, the pull buoy is what it is... a useful piece of swim equipment.
Swimming Set of the Week - April 13, 2012
Yesterday's main set was all about back-half swimming. Today's set continues that theme...but the entire main set requires a "back-half" strategy in order to achieve the goal of descending your times over the course of 1800 yards.
Freestyle - Power Elbow
Developing power and the proper pull for freestyle takes an understanding of where real power comes from.
Butterfly - Vertical Fly
Want to see what a beautiful butterfly pull feels like? Here's a drill anyone can do to learn the flowing feeling of fly when it all comes together.
New Roland Schoeman Clips Found and Uploaded
We found some never-before-seen footage of Roland Schoeman training that we've posted at www.goswimtv.com
Main Set Thursday - December 15, 2011
Mellow 400s today, interspersed with 75s that get faster throughout the set.
Freestyle - Reach, Ride, and Grab
Swimming with paddles gives people a feeling of power as they pull, but this drill will help you focus on another aspect of your stroke... reach!
All Strokes - Hand Instinct
Instinct is a tough thing to discover, and what you instinctively do with your hands can have a direct impact on your performance.
Butterfly - Perp Drill
If you've ever seen any TV police drama, there will be a scene where the suspect is placed against the wall, hands high, and pressed forward so the police can search him. This position just happens to be a great example of the press on butterfly.
Freestyle - Heavy-Hand Side Kick
Learn to connect the pulling arm to the recoverying arm to give you another option for strong freestyle.
Breaststroke - Shadow Outsweeps
We've played with shadows in breaststroke before, but it's never bad to revisit.
