When repeating a distance, go faster. . . . . . #swimming #swim #swimmer #swimming🏊‍♂️ #swimmingtraining #swimwod #swimworkout #swimworkouts #swimmingwizard #swimtraining #swimcoach #schwimmen #swimminglife #swimmingfun #swimminglaps #swimmingislife #poolworkout #hardwork #workworks #natación #swimmingcoach #swimlife

Underwater Kicking Challenge Set. We did this set in a 25 m pool with a stretch cord stretched across the lanes at the halfway mark. We used hockey pucks on the bottom so the swimmers could tell where the stretch cord was located. . . . . #swimming #swim #swimmer #swimming🏊‍♂️ #swimmingtraining #swimwod #swimworkout #swimworkouts #swimmingwizard #swimtraining #swimcoach #schwimmen #swimminglife #swimmingfun #swimminglaps #swimmingislife #poolworkout #hardwork #workworks #natación #swimmingcoach #swimlife
The Oxygen Sucker. The first 25 underwater kick will suck the oxygen out of you..then you gotta hit a FAST 50. 75 easy to recover, then do it again.
