Life Is Worth Swimming

May 10, 2010

Just got my copy and watched it over the weekend. It’s nice!

Pros:

  • obviously, rock-solid advice from top expert
  • focuses on and reinforces the practical fundamentals — reduce drag, increase power, use of core muscles
  • nice cinematography, fun soundtrack
  • has some useful drill suggestions


Cons:

  • short (~30mins) for the price
  • for tri-geeks like me, some of the video wasn’t applicable (e.g., 6-beat high cadence kicks are appropriate for short swims, but probably not long swims)

Overall, I thought it was worth the money to remind me what matters most in swimming! Useful enough that I went back to order the freestyle video.
