Great thanks

I think it's her speed.

Thank you for being such an inspiration Dr. Megan! 😊

I fairly strongly disagree with the sissy squat analogy. If you watch age groupers do the "touch your hands" breaststroke drill vs a normal breaststroke kick, they don't go anywhere. I can squat 300 lbs and a set of 8 sissy squats unweighted is max effort. It's just not as strong and imo way less natural for the knees as well. Anecdotal, but a lot of the people I've seen complain about how breaststroke hurts their knees, myself included, they kick like it's a sissy squat. If you take the sissy squat position and apply it to the actual stroke, your heels would definitely break the surface. If you had the theoretically perfect body line during the pull, where the rest of your body sits on the water and perfectly flat, pulling the heels up will only pull them out of the water. To fix that, you'd have to intentionally make your bodyline worse during your pull, then get a worse kick afterwards. Like you said the hips go closer to the surface in a squat type kick, and in that so do the feet and the finish of the kick. In the sissy squat I think your feet would unload further underneath your line and push your body up instead of into a flat line forward. To me it doesn't seem like the tradeoff of slightly better line during the phase of lifting the heels doesn't feel that relevant since you're supposed to get out of that position as quickly as possible anyway.

to me there was nothing special in that swim. quite mundane style, just went fast. Not a bad thing after all these "new techniques" that everybody have parroted....

Don't forget Marchand's dad is LC World Champ medalist in 2IM (98). Like Summer the 2nd gen genes are strong.

Lost in that 800 free relay was Lasco's 1:29mid anchor

I think the lope in a loping stroke (Hobson) allows a long exhale to clear CO2.

You guys are definitely a pair of swim nerds. Awesome.

Korstanje's Dad wore a shirt with NCSU on the Left half and Alabama on the right half. His wife sowed pieces of 2 shirts together so he could represent each son.

Breaststrokers from small clubs. Lydia Jacoby

At NCAA LM accelerated the head drop through each lap. Its stroke up he kept his head high, perhaps to get a full breath. In the second stroke he dropped it some, then dipped it very low (below the plane of his chest) by the final stroke of the lap. This crescendo was repeated each lap.

To answer your question, her great talent is a combination of hard work, genetics, stubbornness and a good loving family.

I believe it's less well-coached than it is a momentum of determination the likes of which we rarely see, in any sport, any field, any life endeavor. It's sort of like: She knew at, say, 12, that this was possible (due to accurate assessment of her own talent), so all there was, was to go do it. No matter any barrier or obstacle to the aim. Don't let her calm demeanor fool you: It's several mighty engines beneath the surface, all churning at peak effectiveness. The calm demeanor is not facade or put on; it's another of her superpowers. It is an intense inner focus that ignites all only inside so that the exterior stays insouciant, unperturbed. The natant who deals with water most efficiently is he (or she) who is able to develop superior speed. Summer's freestyle action is... think of the ship's screw, how it is made for water to groove itself harmlessly away down its spiral ribs. This is somehow what Summer is able to do. Watch the underwater live shots. You CANNOT mistake it as someone else swimming! It's the height of human swimming efficiency, and as I've said, it CAN'T be taught. Nature handles these things. And now she's growing... her career ceiling is way up there, almost out of sight. How interesting to watch, to see where she will go!

There is a lot of race footage of Summer from 2018 onwards on the "Sharper Image" channel. Also thanks for shouting out my former team mates Marianne, Curtis & Mark T. I trained with Curtis & Marianne.

Summer made the 400 IM final at 2019 World Trials as a 12 year old - 4:50. She's had great coaching all the way with ESwim, HPC & SYS. Her last coach at Eswim - died in May 2020, Ben left HPC supposedly to be closer to his wife's family which prompted the full time move to Sarasota.

Summer seems to have an incredibility ability to endure pain. Which would allow her to sustain a high tempo throughout 200m - 400m swims. She often complains about the pain at the end of her swims but she just keeps going all out every swim anyway. I think pain endurance could be her best superpower. Could this be a big factor in her winning?

Do you think the talk of "project 55" on social media outlets took a toll?

As soon as I think I know something, I am constantly reminded that I don't have it all figured out. Thank you both for your thoughtfulness on a bunch of different subjects.

Great video breaking down a great swim. His ability to replicate the same 25 over and over and over is next level. He's taken the "don't race just execute" mindset to the next level.

That is my uncle!!!

"The 400 IM is the singularity." This would make a good t-shirt.

Is Marius Kusch a legend at Queens?

If this isn't your best podcast it's certainly near the top of the list. You and Joel discussed what I think is the topic that will shape not just swimming but all youth sport programs for the future: the ecosystem? the environment? the model? (choose your term) by which sport is offered in the U.S. I've been thinking about many of these same things and when you said that the swimming model that we currently use may not be the best Jung's synchronicity theory came immediately to mind. Joel described a coach beating himself up because an athlete was not finding any enjoyment in the sport. Thirty years of coaching taught me that we are never going to please everyone...and we shouldn't try. It's too draining as Joel described. Instead, creating an environment that encourages youngsters (or the majority of them anyway) to look forward to the next practice is about all we can do. There will always be athletes who join who don't like the sport, the coach, or the other athletes; and there's nothing we can do about it. Coaches should strive to provide the best environment they can for the athletes they have. How the athletes thrive in that environment is pretty much up to the athlete. FYI: a puck in curling is called a stone I believe.

what are ways/drills to not dive so deep? I have the same issue!

I guess you are new in RUclips ur description is bland and no one can click the link and last thing I don't know ( about topic ) cause u haven't sad anything in discription i don't know is It a biology podcast or about general living

Thanks, Steve for providing Luca with the opportunity of a lifetime at LSU!

thanks for sharing this story.

Lamberti was one of the most talented 200m freestyle specialist ever. Unfortunately he was somehow psychologically fragile and couldn't take full advantage of his incredible natural talent. I saw him at a gas station about 25 years ago and shouted at him from 30 metres 'grande Giorgio!!'. He waved back at me, then scratched his head totally embarrassed.

Appreciate the feedback here, Chris! The 1:06.3 was on a relay and based on where I was at in training (and seriousness) for the 1:07.1 I figured even if the 1:06.3 was on a relay it was a bit more accurate of a representation of where I was in my peak. Split it 30.3/36.0

I think it's a mistake to include running start jumps. In those scenarios you need to decelerate, stop your forward momentum a little bit to transfer it into your knee so you can push up and go up. The heel needs to strike out in front to do that. ruclips.net/video/lgkCxnSHV7w/видео.html If you watch this standing vertical jump, he starts on his full foot, then as he drops his feet leave the ground a bit, but he starts pushing down with the ball of his foot with his heel slightly elevated. You're right, you need a stretch shortening cycle with the achilles/calf in order to get a spring effect and go higher. Landing on the heels fully will dissipate that stretch shortening and you lose power. In teaching, I might say you don't want to land on your heels and you also don't want to point your toes the whole time. Have them do a standing countermovement vertical jump as high as they can and pretty much replicate it on the turn. The heel might slightly touch the ground or wall depending on ankle mobility/achilles stiffness or something, but I don't think you can lose the tension there by slamming the heels down. That's my 2 cents anyway. I like the discussion.

Good picks overall. Don Schollander's 2 olympic gold were the 100 and 400 free, as the 200 free only became an olympic event in 1968. Even if it was an olympic event and had more depth as a result, his dominance of 2 neighbouring distances adds a point in his favour. Good picks for the 70s. was happy with the 80s picks once the mary t mistake was amended at the end More context on Ian Thorpe: His best time was from when he was 20, but in 1998 he became and is still the youngest ever male world champion, approached 2 untouchable WRs, before smashing them in 1999. His first 400 WR wasn't beaten by anyone else until 2009, and would have medaled in every final except for 2009. Phelps wasn't a junior in 2004, but he did hold the 100 fly wr for 1 day in 2003. Yannick Agnel turned 18 in 2010, when his best times were 1:45.83 and 3:46.17. Good swims, but when you add in the context of thorpe in the 90s, agnel's value as a junior swimmer goes down a lot. Runner up or arguably winner of the 2010s is Kristof Milak (2000). at 17, milak's 100/200 times were faster than any time phelps did as a junior, and milak dropped over a second off his best time to go 1:52.71 at 18.. Picking Lydia Jacoby over Summer McIntosh is placing importance on a single performance over versatility. Jacoby did win an olympic gold, but she's only world class in 1 event and Ruta Meilutyte (1997) was 0.6 seconds faster in 2013. McIntosh is world class in 4 events, is the fastest junior of all time in the 200 free and did the second fastest 400 free by a junior, only trailing ledecky who was 1 year older. She's the second fastest junior IMer behind Ye Shiwen, and her 400 IM time is the fastest since 2016, regardless of age. She has another year of eligibility, but I still wouldn't be surprised if someone usurps her after that

Great video! I like the acknowledgement that fear doesn't work long term as a motivator. I think about that too. Thanks!!

Liu Zige. Zhang Lin. Clean or doped?

McIntosh will take over Womens for 2020s

athletes feeling more empowerment and coaches gotta start behaving

I gotta learn how to sit still for an hour…

If Popovici defeats Biedermann in the 200 and 400 by the end of 2022, could that put him ahead of Phelps?

Chas Morton?

ｐｒｏｍｏｓｍ

Great first few minutes of video here..😅

Just anyone listening to this and my appeal on video quality, I know it still looks bad. It looked great while we are recording it. We are actively working on different platforms for recording, unfortunately I don't have a good space to record from either that doesn't have a lot of background noise. Thanks for your patience!

Do you know Florian Wellbrock personally?

1st

Thanks for the vid bro

Too long of a video to just say you have no idea of what's going on with him. Maybe make a video when you do and stop wasting people's time.

Where does Popovici's Swim from Rome 13th of August 2022 Rank Against the Greats? :)

40k a year and public transit as I do not have drivers license and I am your coach
