When looking for an inspirational female rolemodel, look no further than Coach P 😃

With a prestigous swimming career herself, she is proof of what can happen with hard work & determination.

She has taught our swimmers how to own their place in the pool, how to push themselves, how to overcome dissapointments & how to support each other.

Women's Day is celebrated because of women like her 💙

Question: What is the oldest swimming stroke? 🤔

Answer: The breaststroke is believed to be the oldest of strokes and is much used in lifesaving & recreational swimming as well as in competitive swimming. The stroke is especially effective in rough water.

High-intensity training versus high-volume training: Coach Petro gives us her thoughts 💭

Both aerobic and anaerobic work is of vital importance ☝️

👉 Build the aerobic base in younger swimmers. Lay the foundation. Most important energy system to develop with good technique for long term success.

👉 Training that is more anaerobic in nature is done within the training cycle as swimmer matures with adequate recovery.

👉 Many different enery systems a swimmer trains in during a macro cycle dependent on his/her age.

👉 Debate around the world regarding (HIT) - ultra short race pace training - known as high intensity low volume vs traditional lorn term development model. I believe it depends on the swimmer , the coach and what you believe will work for you 🫵😃
