Swim Technique III

And how will this transfer to triathlon?

Every workout will activate your core swimming muscles, increase your feel for the water, and make your freestyle faster and more efficient. Through stroke work and technique, you will work underutilized muscle groups that will more efficiently allow your body to transfer power on the bike and the run. Working starts and turns will translate directly to your prowess in open water. Working your breaststroke is arguably the best low impact workout to improve your run speed. Working breaststroke and butterfly will improve your body’s ability to transfer power to your crank. Working your backstroke will balance the torso muscle development and will give you a new perspective of form weakness in your freestyle.
