Night Swim Podcast

In this episode of Night Swim, we dive deep into one of the most important—and most overlooked—parts of swimming: technique.Dax and Elvis discuss why technique should come before endless yards, why bad habits can become permanent when swimmers are rewarded for them, and why coaches should consider front-loading technique work early in the season. From the pitter-pat freestyle kick to body position, the catch, crossover, and flip turns, this conversation gets into the details that can make a real difference in how a swimmer moves through the water.They also talk about coaching accountability, parents recognizing when their swimmers aren't progressing, and why coaches need to judge themselves by the development of the entire group—not just their best swimmers.Plus, real coaching experiences, private lessons, swimmer development, and what it takes to put yourself on the line as a coach.Build the foundation. Fix the technique. Then build the speed.🌙 Night Swim — Deep conversations come out at night.
