Swimming Program

At Kingwood Strength & Conditioning, I have had great success working with the local high school swimmers.

By going through my strength program, athletes have been able to increase their explosive power off the starting blocks and the wall, and increase their velocity in the water.

The program is very basic and strength gains come very rapidly.  Exercises are focused on strengthening the legs, shoulders, and upperback.

For a competitive swimmer, weightroom activity is best limited to twice per week, and the whole body is trained at every session.

In swimming, first and last place is generally only determined by a matter of seconds.  Adding a well designed strength program to your arsenal may be the tool you need to propel you from last to first.

The swimming program is held on Monday and Wednesday nights at 6:30
