Jenni and I discuss if an ideal swimming start style exists. Jenni Brozena is the Owner and Lead Sport Scientist of Aqueous, an international organization providing elite aquatic wellness through accessible sport science for training preparation, performance, and rehabilitation of aquatic athletes. Jenni works with healthcare systems and large-scale athletic teams to utilize applied sport science for biomechanics, performance enhancement, injury prevention and rehabilitation services for swimmers triathletes, water, water polo players, rowers, and kayakers. Jenni\u2019s work has been accepted at the International Symposium for Biomechanics & Medicine in Swimming, the International Symposium on 3D Human Movement, and she has been a leader within the International Society of Swim Coaching, US Masters Swimming Sports Medicine Committee, and Medical Fitness Association where she supports the Exercise Is Medicine initiative. IN DISTANCE PACING STRATEGIES YOU\u2019LL LEARN: Paying attention to the physiological makeup of the athlete is important because not every athlete is built to be a distance athlete. Those that are can manipulate some variables in training. In order to create a library of strategies, we have to learn about the different energy systems of the body and how they react to the different types of training. Does trajectory impact pacing strategy? Accidentally creating a corrective strategy into pacing impacts distance strategy. Even or negative pacing strategy is best for most athletes in distance oriented swim races. Improving biomechanics throughout the race is effective and healthier for the athlete. Proper muscular activation when the body is already tired should be incorporated in training as well as dryland training.   ","author_name":"Advanced Swimming Performance Podcast","author_url":"http:\/\/advancedswimmingpodcast.libsyn.com\/podcast","html":"
