 Swimming Technique: Winning Swimming
Richard Quick and his wife, June, have put together a new swimming video series, featuring the drills, exercises and techniques that he has used with his highly successful Stanford swim team.
Since 1993, Quick's focus has become teaching swimmers from the "inside out" instead of from the "outside in." In other words, the drills and exercises focus on posture, body alignment or maintaining the line and maintaining balance, by using core body muscles before focusing on what the extremities (arms and legs) are doing.
Quick's "Winning Swimming Video Series" has a separate tape for each stroke and one tape on the techniques needed to be faster underwater (an area largely ignored by many swimmers and coaches).
