Strength & Conditioning

Coaches: Maidstone Outdoor Fitness – Jon and Andy

Swimmers aged 12 years plus are invited to participate in our land-based strength and conditioning sessions.

Strength and conditioning, both with and without weights, assists our swimmers to develop greater strength, power and muscle balance, which can help avoid injuries from the repetitive motion of swimming. The aim of these training sessions is to complement their swimming without leaving them too fatigued to train properly in the pool.

We are running the programme with the assistance of Maidstone Outdoor Fitness. Our programme is totally swim-specific and will improve a wide variety of areas for swimmers taking part regularly.

• Mobility and flexibility
• Stability
• Muscular endurance
• Fundamental movement pattern competency
• General strength
• Power
