SWIMMING WORLD:<\/span><\/strong> Where and when did you get your aquatic start?<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>A. COACH KATIE ROBINSON:<\/strong><\/span> As a young girl in rural Indiana, my older brother started swimming&#8230;and I had to tag along. I was a competitive gymnast, but my mom didn\u2019t want me just sitting during my brother\u2019s swim class, so she enrolled me in a two-week clinic.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of every session, a different coach tried to convince her to put me on the team. She thought it was just a money-making tactic, but by the last day of the clinic, \u201cCoach Z\u201d\u2014who would end up coaching me for the majority of my early swimming career\u2014convinced her.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>SW:<\/strong><\/span> You were recruited by Cal and Stanford, among others. Why did you decide to swim for Texas?<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>KR:<\/strong><\/span> Texas was my first recruiting trip, and it really wowed me in all the right ways. I felt the coach-swimmer connection, and I could tell they really believed in me. I had the same feeling with the women on the team.<\/p>\n<p>I really loved the Texas Pride in Austin, and I came away from the recruiting weekend with a sun tattoo of the longhorn shape from the sticker on my cheek at the football game.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>SW:<\/strong><\/span> Jill Sterkel influenced you. How?<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>KR:<\/strong><\/span> Jill is absolutely the reason I coach today. I admired and deeply respected her as a coach and also as the dominant swimmer she was. There is nothing fake or superficial about her. I loved her passion for the sport and her direct, straightforward coaching approach, while still showing great care and love for all of us. She encouraged us to be our true selves.<\/p>\n<p>We also had a wackiness to our culture that was fun and spirited. At the end of my sophomore year, I knew I wanted to grow in this profession, being like her.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><br \/>\n<strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/issues\/2020\/swimming-world-magazine-january-2021-issue-pdf-only\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">To read more about coach Katie Robinson,<br \/>\nclick here to download the Swimming World January 2021 issue, available now!<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/issues\/2020\/swimming-world-magazine-january-2021-issue-pdf-only\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"458478\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/swimming-world-january-2021-michael-andrew-taking-the-road-less-traveled\/sw-january-2021-cover-michael-andrew-taking-the-road-less-traveled\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/SW-January-2021-Cover-Michael-Andrew-Taking-the-Road-Less-Traveled.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"800,1070\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SW January 2021 &#8211;

Stott<\/strong><br \/>\nIn 1993, Swedish cognitive psychologist Anders Ericsson wrote that greatness wasn\u2019t born, but grown. His ideas later formed the basis for the \u201c10,000-hour rule\u201d described in Malcolm Gladwell\u2019s book, \u201cOutliers\u201d (2008), which holds that it takes roughly 10,000 hours of practice to achieve mastery in a skill or field. Known by the term, \u201cprocess,\u201d to coaches, Swimming World details how they use that learning curve to improve the performance of their swimmers.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><strong>036 SWIMMING TECHNIQUE CONCEPTS: FREESTYLE TECHNIQUE FOR SPRINT AND DISTANCE (Part 1)<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>by Rod Havriluk<\/strong><br \/>\nMany sources suggest that swimmers use a different freestyle technique for sprint and distance events. However, science (both physics and research) shows us that a swimmer can optimize performance in events of all distances by using the same arm motion with a different arm coordination.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">040<\/span> SPECIAL SETS: TOUGH SETS THE DON SWARTZ WAY<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>by Michael J.

The halcyon era was a time of mega yardage being done by the likes of DeMont and fellow Olympians Brian Goodell, Bobby Hackett and Australia\u2019s Steven Holland. When it came to designing tough sets, you could say that Swartz had a front row seat.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">043<\/span> Q&amp;A WITH COACH KATIE ROBINSON<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>by Michael J.
