In this video, Race Club swimmer Riley demonstrates a fresh backstroke breakout method. Inspired by Kliment Kolesnikov, this technique involves keeping the head submerged for the initial two strokes after the breakout. This approach maintains forward momentum and enhances acceleration by preventing the body from rising immediately. It also ensures that the head stays aligned throughout the race. Give this a try on your next backstroke set! https://buff.ly/VEovgJt #swim #swimming #fitness #backstroke #breakout #triathlete #triathlon #usaswimming #technique #improvement #swimswam #theraceclub (fb)

Diving into another great week in Sunny California! We like to use running dives to enter the water at times for a few reasons. One of these being it helps the athlete isolate a hip lift while entering the water without thinking about the other motions of a successful start. But also, because it is FUN! http://theraceclub.com #swimming #swim #fitness #start #athlete #sprint #technique #usaswimming #triathlon #triathlete #usmasters #agegroup #improvement #theraceclub (fb)
