Want to know how to use one of the most powerful strategies for accelerating your swimmers’ skill development and fitness?

​

There is only so much time and energy available during training.

 

And there is a LOT that needs to get done.

 

Swimmers need to be skilled, and swimmers need to be fit.

 

To get as much done as possible in as little time as possible, we need strategies that work well and work quickly.

 

The sport of swimming has gotten a LOT faster over the last 25 years.

 

While there are multiple reasons for that, one of the biggest reasons is the implementation of resisted swimming in the water.

 

At first, it was a novelty.

 

Now, it’s a necessity.

 

However, there are some major misconceptions as to what resisted swimming can accomplish.

 

The biggest one?

 

Resistance training in the water is all about developing strength and power.

 

While it certainly does build strength in the water, that’s just scratching the surface of what’s possible.

 

Resistance training in the water can enhance ANY type of fitness.

 

But that's not all it can do...

​

Resisted swimming is one of the MOST effective skill development tools there is.

 

But no one talks about how to use resisted swimming to improve skills.

​

While there’s little awareness of the value of resistance for improving skills, there’s even less awareness of HOW to optimize resisted swimming to improve skills.

 

Even if you wanted to use resistance to improve skills, it’s very difficult to learn where to start.

 

That’s why I created How To Use Resistance.

 

It shows you EVERYTHING you need to know about how to use resistance training to help your swimmers go faster.

 

We'll cover everything that resistance training in the water can accomplish.

 

You’ll learn:

 

• All the skills that resisted swimming can improve (and how to improve them)

• The different types of fitness that resisted swimming can develop (and how to build them)

 

The bottom line is that the more skilled swimmers are and the fitter they are, the faster they swim.

 

Reisted swimming accelerates progress in BOTH.

 

As I’m sure you know, there are a lot of different resisted swimming options.

 

Which option is best?

 

Unfortunately, there’s no simple answer.

 

Instead, we’ll take a deep dive into each type of resisted swimming.

 

You’ll learn:

 

• What makes each type of resistance uniquely valuable

• The best way to implement each type of resistance

• The pros and cons of each type of resistance

 

When you fully understand the options, you’ll be able to make the best decision as to which types of resistance to use to help your swimmer go as fast as possible.

 

And you’ll learn how to optimally use the different types of resistance that you do have access to.

 

Regardless of your circumstance, you’ll be able to effectively implement resisted swimming to help your swimmers go as fast as possible.

 

How To Use Resistance is THE resource for learning how to effectively put resistance training in the water into your workouts.

​

To make sure you have everything you need to be successful, as a BONUS, you’ll get the following:

 

• 7 different strategies for making resisted swimming even more effective

• Set designed strategies for all 4 main types of training sets 

• 70+ sets that provide practical examples of how to use resistance training in your workouts

• These sets cover all five strokes in the 4 different types of training

• To make sure you understand the thought process behind each set, videos explaining what’s happening in each set and why

​

​​To recap…

 

Resistance training in the water is one of the most effective ways to help swimmers improve their skills and their fitness.

 

The purpose of How To Use Resistance is to help you learn how to use this tool as effectively as possible.

 

I provide everything you need to know to make it happen.

Keep it simple…

FAQS

​​

What are the main topics to be covered?

 

I cover everything you need to know about how to use resistance in the water. I cover the skills that you can improve, the types of fitness you can develop, all the different resistance training options and their strengths and benefits, how to make resistance training more effective, how to design different types of resisted swimming sets, and how to plan training with resisted swimming.

 

Are stroke specific strategies discussed?

 

The same resistance training strategies work for all strokes.  That’s what makes resisted swimming so powerful!

 

What if I don’t have access to different types of resistance?

 

I explain all the options, especially the free ones.  Regardless of the resistance training equipment you have, there is SOMETHING you can do that will have a beneficial impact on your swimmers.  In many cases, when you understand the impact of certain types of resistance, there are ways to recreate those effects with other types of resistance.  There is almost always a way to get the job done with little to no cost.

 

Will the example sets be explained?

 

While seeing example sets is helpful, understanding the reasoning behind those sets is even more helpful.  For each set, I’ve included a short video where I walk through the components of the set, why they’re included, and what swimmers should be focusing on executing during the sets.  When you understand the why behind the set, it’s easier to then modify existing sets or create your own.  

 

What if I’m not sure how to put this into practice?

 

This is a practical manual, not a theoretical one.  While I certainly explain the why behind everything, the goal is to help you USE these ideas.  There are clear strategies and clear guidelines for using those strategies.  There are a LOT of examples that you can either use right away or use as inspiration for designing your own sets.  The specific purpose of this information is to show you how to put it into practice.

​

Are there guidelines for how to plan the use of resisted swimming?

 

Yes.  I cover planning considerations for workouts, training weeks, seasons, and careers.  Not only is important to understand what to do, it’s important to understand when to do it.  I provide the thought process behind planning decisions so that you can make adjustments according to your specific circumstances.

 

How do I adjust the use of resisted swimming based upon age or experience level?

 

For each type of training, I provide in depth descriptions of the adjustments that can be made based upon the events a swimmer swims (sprint vs. distance), their age, and their resistance training experience level.  That way you’ll be able understand how to adjust your approach based upon the swimmers that you coach.

 

Are inexpensive alternatives discussed?

 

Yes, I provide examples of how to make inexpensive resistance training equipment, as well as how to use resistance in the water when no equipment is available.  I provide you with as many options as possible to ensure you can implement resisted swimming in some way.

 

Do you describe how to use resisted swimming with other strategies such as stroke counts?

 

I cover how to use resisted swimming with every other skill development strategy, including drills, stroke counts, stroke rates, and more.  I show you how to use resisted swimming with all types of training and with all the other strategies that can improve your swimmers’ skills.  It is about how to integrate resisted swimming with everything else you do.

 

Do you cover how much load to use?

 

It’s impossible to say exactly how much load a swimmers should use (i.e. 10 pounds).  There are too many factors at play.  Instead, I provide you with my decision-making framework for determining in the chosen load is appropriate.  That way, you’ll be able to make effective decisions regardless of your situation.
