1.  Words from Coach Mark


Welcome to the Short Course Meters Season!

As we dive into our Fitness/Aerobic Base/Technique training from September to December, our primary focus is competitive and fitness swimming. The highlight of our season will be the SPMA Regional SCM Championship Meet. For our fitness swimmers, we aim to complete the USMS 10K/5K and the One-Hour Swim.

At Nadadores, we prioritize supporting everyone’s goals, whether completing a triathlon, qualifying for an Ironman, losing ten pounds, entering your first swim meet, or achieving a specific time in an event.

We believe every swimmer is important, regardless of their reasons for swimming. Our program is designed to reflect this belief. Our workouts will help you reach your fitness goals, improve your performance, build confidence, and most importantly, have fun and meet great people.

Successful competitive swimming requires maintaining good technique and excellent skills at high speed, even when fatigued and under race pressure. To achieve this, we focus on developing the following five elements:

  1. Skills: Fundamentals, timing, breathing, and balance.
  2. Technique: Drills, perfect strokes, maximum distance per stroke, and proper kicking.
  3. Endurance: The ability to sustain speed and resist fatigue.
  4. Turns: Fast, powerful, and explosive with great streamlining.
  5. Starts: Strong, powerful, and explosive with great streamlining.

Let’s make this season a great one together!
