New Technical ‘Session in a Bottle’ released

September 25, 2020

A Swim Technique Bottle Has Now Been Added To Our Fitness Collection

In addition to our 3 fitness bottle offerings we are pleased to add a 4th Green Swim Technique Bottle. With full support from its dedicated supporting website, there are drills demonstrations via Video, a glossary of terms and full explanations.

Your technical warmup and subset read around the top of the bottle. Your choice of 6 drills sets read down the bottle as columns to quickly identify ‘problem areas’ and help address such issues as –

Breathing                 ‘why can’t I breathe to both sides?’
Body Position         ‘why am I swimming uphill?’
Leg Kick                    ‘why am I faster with a pull buoy’
Arm Pull                    ‘avoiding the dreaded straight arm push down’
Feel for water           ‘how do I stop slipping?’
Coupling/Timing     bringing it all together.

and there is a technical warm down which again, reads around the bottle.

High quality Tacx bottles in a 750ml size.
