Q. SWIMMING WORLD:<\/span><\/strong> How did you get started swimming?
\nA. COACH JOE PLANE:<\/span><\/strong> I grew up swimming in my grandparent\u2019s backyard pool, but never swam competitively. I quit Boy Scouts in November of seventh grade when a friend and I joined a swim team. I\u2019ve been in love with it ever since.<\/p>\n

SW:<\/span><\/strong> Kelly Kremer was your coach at John Brown University.
\nJP:<\/span><\/strong> He was 24, and I was 20. Kelly was mature, professional, excited, high-energy, knowledgeable…and he pushed us to our limits. Knowing he was from Drury College, we knew how fast he was and that he was used to winning nationals every year. He wanted us to perform at the highest level of which we were capable. I swam new events that became my best. Back then, we swam with drag resistance. I went extreme, wearing five briefs, long johns, cut-off long johns and a female suit. At the University of Minnesota, he is only three hours away. We talk regularly and are still very close.<\/p>\n

SW:<\/span><\/strong> With a background in mechanical engineering, math and physics, how did you end up as a swim coach?
\nJP:<\/span><\/strong> In 1997 while at an engineering internship, my high school coach John Hamlin called and asked if I\u2019d be interested in coaching a rec team. I coached part time from April 1997 until November 2000 when I was offered my first full time coaching job as the head coach at Wolverine Aquatics in Ann Arbor, Mich.<\/p>\n

SW:<\/span><\/strong> What did you learn from coaches Jim Richardson, Bob Bowman and John Urbanchek… and from watching Michael Phelps work out?
\nJP:<\/span><\/strong> Coach Richardson liked my engineering mindset, and we talked often about the testing and use of the color charts in a variety of practice settings as well as team culture and leadership. He trusted my knowledge of stroke technique, and I often took the women to the diving well and used the underwater camera to make stroke adjustments.
\nWatching Jon work with Olympic-caliber men was enlightening. He related to them personally, and his constant positivity was infectious. Bob was more intense than Jon and Jim, and in some ways, more like my personality. He had fun with the swimmers, but the expectations and the intensity of the workouts were different. I also proctored a Michael workout one day. He was a normal guy with extraordinary talent.<\/p>\n

FEATURES<\/p>\n

012<\/span> THE PRIDE OF GIRLS\u2019 POLO IN THE GATEWAY CITY<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Michael Randazzo<\/strong>
\nWhen COVID-19 lockdowns last spring stopped polo, Rob Peglar and Abby VerMeer didn\u2019t hesitate: they focused on getting girls water polo untracked in the Gateway City. The result: the St. Louis Lions, the city\u2019s first all-girls team.<\/p>\n

014<\/span> ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Dan D\u2019Addona<\/strong>
\nThe popular motto of The Musketeers, built on supporting each other as well as the group, is just one of many reasons why the University of Texas remains among the strongest in men\u2019s college swimming and diving.<\/p>\n

020<\/span> READY FOR A BREAKTHROUGH<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Andy Ross<\/strong>
\nMelanie Margalis is an Olympic relay gold medalist and a three-time relay champion at Worlds, but a podium finish in an individual event has eluded her on the world\u2019s biggest stage. After ranking No. 1 in the 400 IM and No. 3 in the shorter medley for 2020, her turn to win a medal for the United States could take place this year in Tokyo.<\/p>\n

022<\/span> PERSEVERANCE AND HARD\u00a0 WORK PAY OFF<\/strong><\/span>
\nby David Rieder<\/strong>
\nAfter not qualifying for Australia\u2019s Olympic team in 2012, Emma McKeon was ready to quit…but over the next several months, she had a change of heart and understood what was necessary to compete at a higher level. Since then, she has become a significant international force, a consistent podium presence and one of the world\u2019s most impactful relay swimmers.<\/p>\n

026<\/span> TAKEOFF TO TOKYO:\u00a0TARNISHED GOLD<\/strong><\/span>
\nby John Lohn<\/strong>
\nEast Germany\u2019s Kristin Otto will long be remembered as a highly decorated athlete, and for turning in one of the greatest Olympic outings in history, winning six gold medals at the 1988 Games. But because of the links to her and performance-enhancing drugs, what she accomplished\u2014before and in Seoul\u2014will always be tainted.<\/p>\n

029<\/span> WHO \u201cSHOT\u201d THE\u00a0SWIMMERS? (Part 2)<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Bruce Wigo<\/strong>
\nShortly after the 1936 Olympics in a lab in Boston, Harold \u201cDoc\u201d Edgerton, an electrical engineering professor at MIT, began tinkering with equipment that would change the way science explains natural phenomena\u2014and with it, the art of aquatic sports photography\u2014forever.<\/p>\n

COACHING<\/p>\n

016<\/span> SELLING PROCESS TO\u00a0SWIMMERS (Part 2)<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Michael J. Stott<\/strong>
\nIn 1993, psychologist Anders Ericsson wrote that greatness wasn\u2019t born, but grown. Fifteen years later, author Malcolm Gladwell suggested that it takes roughly 10,000 hours of practice to achieve mastery in a skill or field. Known by the term, \u201cprocess,\u201d swim coaches use that learning curve to improve the performance of their swimmers.<\/p>\n

036<\/span> SWIMMING TECHNIQUE CONCEPTS: FREESTYLE TECHNIQUE FOR SPRINT AND DISTANCE (Part 2)<\/strong><\/span>
\nby Rod Havriluk<\/strong>
\nOptimal freestyle technique for sprint and distance is identical with respect to the arm motion throughout the stroke cycle, but the arm coordination is different. While a swimmer can swim a wide range of velocities with opposition coordination, a swimmer will only achieve his\/her fastest velocity with superposition coordination.<\/p>\n
