Sports Performance Services – Services
are available for swimmers, triathletes or athletes of any sport
and ability looking
to improve their performance in the water.
- Swim Stroke Analysis – 1
hour coaching session breaking down the athlete’s
swim stroke and utilizing appropriate drills that address the specific
biomechanical inefficiencies for that particular athlete.
This coaching session also includes
a print out of the focus areas, specified drills and sample sets for
the athlete.
- Swim Force Stroke
Analysis – 1 ½ hour
session pinpointing bi-lateral differences during the pull
and recovery phases of the stroke. We measure peak
power output, stroke length, stroke rate and swimming velocity. The force
stroke analysis is generally a test for athletes who have
less obvious limiting factors
than technique. It provides the coach with concrete data regarding their
athletes efficiency, power output and lapses with the continuity
of the stroke.
To schedule an analysis or private training session, please
