AME Fall Underwater Swim Video Analysis Clinic

Swimming is all about form. Swimming harder, swimming more frequently or swimming at high volume does not mean you will swim faster. Incorrect mechanics done at volume are that much harder to correct. The most efficient way to learn and improve your swim mechanics is through underwater video analysis. It is one thing to know correct form and quite another to see your own form in the water and work on inefficiencies in your technique relevant to you. This clinic is focused on freestyle swim form, specific to multi-sport athletes and open water swimming.

Swim Analysis Includes:

• One 20 minute session at the pool to capture the swim footage.
  • Video footage is captured from multiple vantage points under and above water.
  • Participant will swim laps as needed to fully capture necessary video.
  • Total estimated yardage is 500-1000 yards depending on ability and requirements.
• Video footage and comprehensive swim analysis review.
  • Every aspect of swim form is broken down and analyzed, including but not limited to: body position, swim stroke, breath control, timing, rotation, kick, sighting and flip turns.
