Not sure how much or how far to swim? Wondering why you don’t get faster? Have open water anxiety?

This podcast is for you. We look at how to properly use time in the pool. We look at building fitness BEFORE technique.

Then show you how to marry them both in an effective progression. We look at the difference between pool swimming and open water.

We look at drills… which ones work and which ones are wasting your time. Anxiety beating techniques. Wetsuits.

Fear. Swimming in salt water and techniques for two loop swim courses so you can avoid congestion.
