Dryside Training by Commit Swimming: Sprint Free

dryside-training-commit-swimming-sprint-free-cover

Everybody loves the sprint races.  Nothing gets more hype than being the fastest swimmer in the world.  But what can we do – the average swimmers- to gain more speed in the pool?

Well, it’s all about power.  The more power we can create with our arms, core and kick…the faster we should be able to go.

These exercises should help create that power.  Between the pressing on the stability ball to performing a dumbbell stroke on a stability ball, the power developed with these exercises will increase your distance per stroke.  Also, the new strength and power should improve your body position in the water.

Perform two to three sets of 10 reps two times a week with medium-to-heavy resistance.  If you cannot make the 10 reps, the weight is too heavy.  Good luck and feel the need for speed!
