🏊 Swimming season meets dryland season.
Here’s how to bridge the gap without losing what you built in the water 👇
Water builds endurance and feel, but it can only take strength and power so far. Low resistance in the water limits how much strength and power swimmers can actually build there, and most swimming injuries come from overuse, with the shoulder taking the brunt of it.
That’s where dryland comes in. A smart routine before/after practice can help:
✅ Build the strength swimming alone can’t
✅ Protect shoulders and core from overuse
✅ Keep your swimmer in the water, not on the bench
Quick tip: post-swim stretches should feel like gentle tension — never sharp or pinching. If it hurts, that’s your body asking for a check-in, not more reps.
Fall season is coming fast. Don’t wait for the ache to become an injury.
