Our One Day Advanced Front Crawl Swim Analysis Clinic shows how and where you can improve your swim technique to refine your front crawl stroke. Our coaching, with expert four point video analysis above and underwater, provides practical steps to help you swim with greater efficiency and speed.

 

We’ll adapt your swim technique with our stroke analysis methods, and teach you cutting edge swim skills and drills. In the Advanced swim clinic you'll learn and understand how to control different pacing intensities, so you can maintain a more robotic and symmetrical front crawl technique at your threshold or race pace!

​

Learn how to reduce drag, become more streamlined, build your fitness, and become a Speedier Swimmer!

​

How do you know if the advanced swim clinic is right for you?

​

By 'Advanced Swimmer' we mean you are in the 1:07 to 1:36 speed range when you swim 100 metres at threshold pace.

​

You want to improve your swimming because you're a competitive triathlete or masters level swimmer.

You're probably in the top 2 lanes of your club.

​

You should be able to swim 400 metres between 4:30 and 6:30 minutes.

400m swim TT time 4:30-6:30

​

Expert swim video analysis

​

Hone your technique with T race pacing and testing sets You place well in swim races Improve your distance per stroke Rotate more powerfully Develop a stronger push phase Improve your times and PB's SWOLF focus Improve efficiency

 

Workshop Structure: The workshops are very interactive, with plenty of discussion around your questions and individual stroke.

 

The Advanced Swim Clinic is divided into the following components:

​

Theory time in the classroom showing excellent swim technique to swim faster

In depth focus on the early vertical forearm phase

A focus on the powerful push phase combined with improving rotational power

Practical exercises in the classroom 

Pool practical sessions on css pacing, swolf and improving your distance per stroke

Core strength for swimming on generating and controlling rotation better

 

Included in the Theory Sessions:

​

The advanced finer elements of the freestyle stroke, which will help you gain more distance per stroke and speed

Enhancing your efficiency in the pool, so you can swim further more easily

Generating more propulsion in the water, this will have you moving faster - surprisingly without working harder

Developing open water skills, to get the best out of yourself on race day

CSS pacing focussed training plan development and how to get the most out of your swim sessions using swolf and css pacing

 

Practical Swimming Sessions Include:

​

Extensive video analysis / assessment of your stroke above and below the water from 4 viewpoints.

Technique development and intervention based on your video analysis

A CSS swim session on pacing awareness and controlling speed and power. 

Individual stroke correction drills

Revising and practicing drills with a SWOLF technique session

 

Classroom Time Includes Practical Aspects:

​

Stretching / flexibility for performance

Swim video analysis playback and assessment.

 

Of course you get to take away your video footage with you on USB Stick

​

How to develop more rotational core strength and power for swimming

Theory on core-driven rotational swimming.

Powerful, efficient, and injury-free, it's a much better way to swim with greater speed

Controlling and harnessing the power from learning to counter rotate your body to gain more distance per stroke
