Summer Series: Swimming

Swimming is one of the most beneficial activities you can perform and comes with one of the lowest risk of injury due to being low impact. If you want to be able to swim more than 100 meters unbroken, you’ll want to build the muscular endurance required to propel you through the water.

Build your body for the great outdoors

Summer is the season for exploring and we’re here to keep you strong for all of the adventures ahead. These movements are recommended for all levels, and present in no particular order in terms of priority or pairing. The concept of the summer series is to provide you with movements that directly correlate with the activity and strategically target the associated muscle groups.

More than a workout plan. With this plan you also receive:

Upper Body & Core

Building the rear delts and lats

Swimmers have some of the strongest backs amongst athletes. We’ll focus on building up delts, rear delts, rhomboids and lats to add power to your stroke.

Never Skip Leg Day!

Glutes play a role in a powerful kick

While swimming is predominantly an upper body and core strength sport, producing propeller-like force with your feet will stem from powerful glutes.
