BARRACUDAS – “Learning to train”.
RATES AS PER Learn to swim
FOCUS:
Squad training “alters” an athlete’s DNA. The
constant pressure of training nudges an athlete’s body to
adapt into
a more efficient human.
Swimmers start to understand, how to take instruction as a group, and
to build their technique, endurance, and mental tenacity.
SWORDFISH - “Learning to train bridge to compete”.
FOCUS:
A trained swimmer is never bored during a
training session. They are too occupied,
dividing sets, correcting mistakes, and barely
hanging in with the squad
Building mental tenacity.
This group is introduced to BHAGS – Big
Hairy Audacious Goals…and planning the life journey.
SWIMMING 1X/ WEEK IS NOT RECOMMENDED in Swordfish
group. Simply said – SWIMMERS get left behind, and are soon
unable to keep up with their squad.
