This week on the podcast, we're discussing why swimmers should focus on building stamina before chasing speed. We explore how a strong aerobic base helps improve technique, efficiency and ultimately leads to faster swimming in the long run.
We also chat about the reminder we all need from time to time: comparison is the thief of joy. In a world where it's easy to measure ourselves against others, we discuss the importance of focusing on your own journey, your own goals and celebrating your own progress.
Our Drill of the Moment is 8 fast strokes followed by 8 slow strokes—a simple but effective drill that helps build fitness, control pace and teaches swimmers how to change gears while maintaining good technique.
We also look back on some of our recent coastline adventures, including one of our all-time favourites, Hele to Haggington, a swim that never fails to remind us how lucky we are to have such an incredible coastline on our doorstep.
As always, we finish with Tell It To The Sea, featuring stories of family, friendship and some fantastic achievements from our swimmers that have made us incredibly proud.
So grab a cuppa and join us for another swim-filled chat from the North Devon coast.
