Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The world's top swimmers know the secrets to swimming faster. Now you can too! In Swim Speed Secrets, 4-time Olympian, gold medalist, and triathlon world champion Sheila Taormina is your guide to unlocking speed. Over the course of 4 Olympic Games and throughout her career as a world champion triathlete, Taormina refined her exceptional technique as a student of the sport, studying the world's best swimmers using underwater photographs and video analysis. Her smart, clear coaching will help any swimmer or triathlete learn the fastest way to swim. From Johnny Weissmuller to Michael Phelps, the world's fastest swimmers share two common elements: high stroke rate and a high-elbow underwater pull. Many swimmers and triathletes neglect the underwater pull, distracted by stroke count or perfecting less critical details like body position, streamlining, and roll. Swim Speed Secrets focuses on producing power--the most crucial element of swimming--to help swimmers and triathletes overhaul their swim stroke and find the speed that's been eluding them. With a commonsense approach that comes from decades of practice and years of hands-on coaching experience, Taormina shows swimmers how to transition to faster swimming. Swim Speed Secrets includes: The best drills to cultivate a more sensitive feel for the water Dryland and strength building exercises to develop arm position and upper body musculature Crisp photos of Olympic swimmers and variations in their high-elbow underwater pull Clear descriptions of the key moments of the underwater pull Tips that helped her perform at a world-class level for two decades New to this 2nd edition: Guidance on stroke path, stroke timing, hand speed change, and overwater recovery. Visual proof of the curvilinear stroke path using Taormina's patent-pending grid analysis tool. Further instruction on stroke rate, and a "gears" system to guide workouts. New drills to cultivate technique and feel for the water, and dryland exercises to develop arm position and upper-body musculature. Sheila Taormina's Swim Speed Secrets brings the focus back where it belongs: to a powerful underwater stroke. With this approach, triathletes and swimmers can stop swimming for survival and break through to new levels of speed and confidence in the water.…
