THOUGHT

Feast your soul on some swimming philosophy from Oklahoma, by swim coach David Estes.

“My philosophy can be broken down like this: teach the students/athletes life lessons about hard work, dedication, dealing honorably with success and failure because you will probably experience both at some point. Success is always going to be different for each individual. The common thread in TEAM effort is doing it together, supporting each other and giving your best to create a positive work environment. I believe in finishing things through and completion of goals you have set and then learning to understand, appreciate and eventually love the process so you can apply these principles into everything you do in life. Always give it your best, set goals to achieve, yet take it one day at a time.”

If you’re not swimming as fast as you want in competitions, there are three things you might have to change: technique, training philosophy (which should be influenced by how you’re racing), or race strategy. Here’s a closer look at each of those elements.
