It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
Ankle - Strap/Band
We bind the ankles in many of the pull workouts to:
Develop good posture (a taut vessel)
Enhance the need for improved stroke rate without losing purchase on the water
Power development
Fins
We don't use fins to kick harder but to assist with body position and to allow patience to find proper mechanics. Adding fins is used to help with the arms over trying to kick to glory. Best fins at 3-5 inches over the end of the toes and comfortable.
Power Paddles
For use in short and faster intervals to develop power. The key is that stroke rate must remain at normal levels.
Use these paddles only if you have a proper technique. Strokemaker Hand Paddles.
If you swim 1.15 / 100 send off *(yards) or faster: YELLOW (medium)
If you swim 1.35 / 100 send off *(yards) or faster: GREEN (small)
If you swim 2 min / 100 send off *(yards) or faster: RED (XS)
Tempo Trainer
The mission in swimming is to increase the tempo (strokes per minute = Stroke Rate [SR]) while maintaining the amount of water you push back with each stroke. This creates your best speed.
Stretch Cords
Only taking 5-7 minutes each time and can be completed pre or post workout, these cords are wonderful tools for muscular resilience and stroke development.
Purchase the yellow option unless you can swim on a send off of 1.30 per 100 or better (yards) or 1.40 per 100 m.
