Specific strength training & athletics SWC
Targeted land training is essential to ensure that movements in the water can be performed powerfully, efficiently and injury-free. In this course, prospective swimming coaches learn how to increase the performance of their swimmers through specific strength and athletic training and at the same time create a stable basis for technique and endurance .
The focus is on the practical relevance to swimming. Strength exercises for the shoulder girdle, back, core and legs form the basis for sustainably improving the arm stroke, leg stroke and water position. The training is supplemented by stabilization exercises that promote a stable core and thus optimize power transfer and water position. Another focus is on mobility work for the shoulders and hips, which not only increases mobility, but also prevents injuries and facilitates technical sequences.
Participants learn how to combine strength, stability and mobility in a well thought-out athletics circuit and how to methodically build up land training units. Whether for individuals or entire groups - thanks to varied forms of exercise and flexible training plans, land training becomes an effective and motivating part of swimming training.
