swimming conditioning

No matter what swimming event you compete in, proper dry-land conditioning will help you increase your speed and reduce the risk of injury.

Swimmers training with one of our certified personal trainers can expect to:

  • Increase core strength and endurance
  • Increase shoulder strength and stability
  • Increase latissimus dorsi (“lats”) strength
  • Increase full body explosive power

“In the sport of swimming, weight training is meant to supplement an athlete’s in-pool training program…In the world of sport – and specifically swimming – it all comes down to power.”

 

-Olympic Coach Magazine, Volume23, Issue 2

“Shoulder problems are one of the dominant issues facing swimming, as well as the other aquatic disciplines. The time lost from training and effects on performance are considerable. Prevention is key.”
