Flip turns for Triathletes

Mermaids,

Regardless of the fact that a triathlete will never need to do a flip turn in the middle of a triathlon, I believe the skill of being able to successfully incorporate flip turns into your workout sets helps you become a better swimmer.

It may be awkward to learn and difficult to do all the time, but as this article from Beginner Triathlete details, there are definitely benefits.

I encourage you to learn how to do better flip turns by watching the video demonstration.

happy swimming,

coach Lisa

Ready for the last class?

Tomorrow is the last class of the session, I hope everyone is able to attend. Don’t let the threat of cold wet weather scare you off, the pool will be nice and toasty. I’m sure there will be a few surprises or two too! See you on deck.
