Swimming Drills For Triathltes
Maximising your pool time
This is a growing library of swim drills designed specifically for triathletes – not swimmers chasing perfect strokes, but athletes who want to move through the water more efficiently, with less effort, and more consistency on race day. Each drill in this catalogue is broken down clearly and simply. I explain:
What the drill is working on
Why it matters for triathlon swimming
How to use it properly within a swim set
Alongside each drill, you’ll find a short YouTube video demo, so you can see exactly how it should look in the water – no guesswork, no overthinking.
You can dip in and out, pick one drill to focus on for a few weeks, or slot them directly into your existing swim sessions. Most drills work best when used briefly and intentionally, rather than endlessly repeated.
This library is designed to help you become a more self-sufficient swimmer – understanding why you’re doing a drill, not just copying one because it’s on a plan.
If you’re time-poor, frustrated with your swim, or tired of being told to “just do more lengths”, this is where you start.
