It is also is for advanced swimmers who want to train for open water events like triathlon and long distance swimathon.
The swimmers will perform a variation of drills and intervals on different intensity to improve the cardiovascular system and increase their stamina.
The swimmers use aids (flippers, hand paddles, kick boards etc.) You can bring your equipment where else will be provided temporarily by the club. You must were swimming goggles (not mask) and preferable a swimming hat.
TiN8 prefer using best swimming aids on the market designed by FINIS able to provide instant stroke feedback for technique imperfections.
Finis paddles ergonomically-advanced design teaches an early vertical forearm position to increase stroke efficiency. The convex shape requires a proper palm positive hand position. Due to the paddles’ strapless design, incorrect technique will cause the paddles to fall off. (best deal of the day on this link, but not limited to it). The Edge fins are the ultimate speed training fins, engineered to do it all. Through extensive testing at the FINIS Stroke Lab, the Edge fins were designed to optimize training without interrupting a natural kick cycle or compromising on comfort. The combination of 100% silicone and trademarked Smart Fin™ Technology reinforces a proper kick at high speeds, builds cardiovascular endurance and activates key muscle groups for a propulsive up-kick.
Feedback will be provided during and after the session and coaches will take a video of the swimmers for the feedback purposes (subject of member’s consent).
