    #72 - Season 4: EP. 1 w/ JACK & CAL

    We're back, and we're kicking off season FOUR of The Aqua Strength Podcast... This week we talk multi-sport athletes, why recruiting by times alone can miss the full picture, and why more isn't always better when you're building better athletes. We also get into progressive overload, keeping athletes healthy and excited to train, and how sharing your coaching online helps you connect with people. Swimmer, water polo player, coach, or parent? This one's for you. Follow, leave a review, and send this to someone who'd love it.

    #64 - How Junk Volume RUINS Swimmers w/ ELVIS BURROWS

    In this episode of the pod, JB and Cal chat with Elvis Burrows. Elvis is a former Olympic swimmer turned coach, consultant, & commentator. We discuss why most swimmers are training their brains and bodies for the middle of the race, not the finish line, why traditional yardage-focused practices are holding athletes back, and how embracing high-intensity, technical training can unlock unprecedented speed. In this episode, you’ll discover why less can be more in the sport of swimming. Elvis breaks down the misunderstood difference between yardage and volume, exposing the flawed belief that more laps equal faster times. You'll learn how elite swimmers develop the killer instinct and technical mastery that turn races into wins. This episode is essential listening for coaches tired of the status quo, athletes hungry to improve, and anyone fed up with slow progress from endless yardage.
