Does anyone have any other unusual drills? Share them with us!
we did quite a cool one, underwater freestyle, so like the whole stroke including recovery was underwater.
Fist swimming.
Always surprised when they aren't mentioned more. You won't go anywhere without a high elbow catch with fists...
Hey Heather! Thanks for these. It looks like the mid-phase scull one is happening in the vid at the catch instead of the mid-phase? Is that correct, is that what you wanted to show?
i looooooooove suwiming
One arm drill breathing the side you are stroking. Such a good one to work on rotation and hip alignment
Looking at the zip unzip very similar to popov. But yours.goes.completly over and back while popov.is on the body.
Unusual in what respect? We did these and variotions almost 20 years ago.
thanks for the video but due to covid-19 most of swimming pools are closed... :(
Hi there, many are closed but many are also open across the globe - it also makes us excited for when the pools re-open, hopefully not too long 🤞
All our pools are closed due to pandemic 😒
Hi Heather, found this looking for swim drills for my 11-13 year old pupils swimming sets. Great drills! Cheers from Chadders - Mr Best's mate.
Good timing. My pool opens back up on Monday. I've never done ANY swim drill, but your form is just so darn clean that I might be motivated to start. If I do I'll likely start at the basics tho, these are far too advanced for me haha
What is the difference between putting the pool buoy just above the knees vs just under the crotch? Is there a right way whereabouts you put the pool buoy between the legs?
Great advice! I love swimming and I will enjoy it this morning with these swimming exercises!
Thanks for reminding me about how much I love swimming.
These are fun, will give it a try when we get back to pools again here in finland :)
I’m really struggling with drills. The essence is why bother? I get in, I swim, I get out. 100m sprints deliver and that’s it. I’m not fast but looking at an hour for an Ironman vs other bike and run times it’s seems senseless to focus on swimming. Help
With regular drill work should be able to get a 25m length done in 12-15 strokes with push off. You will also be swimming faster than you were with 18-20 strokes so on race day you could see a 25% recuction in stroke count, a faster time and lower heart rate. Its free speed and sets you up for a great race :)
Thank you so much
These look really fun, something a bit different from the standard drills, or mindlessly swimming up and down 😂
I have not come across any age group triathletes who swim mindlessly up and down unless they are BOP swimmers 😂
@@PhiyackYuh i wasn't trying to upset the applecart, just meant That the drills looked fun to try 🤷🏻♂️😂
Drills are my favorite part of swimming! I guess I always love the things other people think are boring... Definitely looking forward to giving these a try!
