START SETUP!!
Watch coach Finn demonstrate at our most recent camp how to setup on the block.

The first step is to keep you hips as high as possible and draw your weight back. When you have your weight back and pull down on the block with your arms it forces your energy forward.

The block should raise off the ground from the force you exert with your arms in the front of the block as you can hear in the video. He was almost a little too snappy nearly falling in the pool on the second demonstration..

Give this setup a try!!

We love getting inventive when teaching swimmers to activate their core. If the core’s weak, hips drop and drag increases.

This drill is one of our go‑tos for building core engagement — what drills does your team use?

A strong distance freestyle doesn't stop at the shoulders. A strong distance stroke can also incorporate power from the hip to extend the propulsive phase and impulse of your stroke.

Hip driven freestyle unlocks a longer stroke, better rotation, and more power with less effort. Perfect for longer races. This drill demonstration breaks down exactly how to engage your hips and feel the difference in the water immediately.

Your core is either winning or losing your races — there's no in between. 🏊‍♂️

We put ALL our swimmers through this 3-minute core test. The rules are brutal in their simplicity:
✅ Feet stay up
✅ Lower back glued to the mat
✅ Zero breaks. Not one.

If 3 minutes of core work breaks you, fatigue WILL break you in the final 50m.

Think you've got what it takes? Drop a 💪 if you passed — or be honest and tell us where you fell apart. 👇

Struggling to breathe in butterfly without losing your stroke? You’re not alone.

The Butterfly Skate Drill isolates your breathing pattern so you can develop the timing and head position needed to take a clean breath without throwing off your rhythm or sinking your hips. Watch this video and you’ll walk away knowing exactly how to use your neck and lift your shoulders less.

Quick breakdown of our approach to Backstroke!

We approach all four strokes with a similar ideology. 1. Reduce Drag 2. Increase propulsive forces 3. Maximizing inertia

This analytical approach to break down the strokes is a guaranteed formula to increase a swimmers velocity.

We teach and recommend the Tandy Start to all swimmers! Named after Brad Tandy, this technique has 4 key elements that make the Tandy more explosive and efficient.

1. The Set Up – Keep your weight back on the block and hold tension through the arms so you’re ready to snap into the move.
2. The Arm Swing – Pull hard on the block, then drive your arms in a full circular motion to add extra airtime and power.
3. Back Leg Kick – As you leave the block, drive the back leg up to create high hips and a strong forward trajectory.
4. Hip Lift – Lift the hips as your upper body enters the water to ensure a clean, streamlined entry.

Practice these parts together for faster, cleaner race starts.
