PUSHUPS

Kids as young as 7 or 8 years old can usually do strength-training activities (such as pushups and sit-ups) as long as they show some interest, can perform the exercises safely, and follow instructions. ... A trained professional can help your child determine what the appropriate weight may be.

It's always good to have a Training buddy....


1st Learn To Swim Session with my little nephew...... Awesome


Finally the 6 years old boy is able to swim freestyle without the board with the girls ...nice


Starts to see more body rotation after a few laps of shoulder roll drill


One of the most important drills in teaching swimmers how to rotate their body for freestyle swim technique is the body rotation swim drill....

Does Coaching Changes My Life

Swimming coaches help swimmers of different ability levels to improve their technique, fitness and performance in the water using a range of exercises, and fitness and dietary programmes. Being a swimming coach involves a range of activities.
Been a swimming coach also changes the character of the coach ( Me ).
I have learned to be more patience, learned to explain to them every single movement, learned to motivate them. Learned to talk to the kids before the session start, try to know the kids` character more. Explain to the parents how's the kids` progress. Always keep in mind, they are just kids. Off course I`m not perfect, I do make mistakes.
Everyday is a learning session to me,
So does coaching change my life?......Yes

1st flip turns session.....


Getting ready for a morning swim


Starts young

Here's A 12 years old young man.... doing 10 sets of 5 reps of pushups interval of 30secs.
Keeping muscles toned and strong is just as important for kids as it is for adults, and every kid should partake in some form of strength training on a regular basis. Since a child’s muscles, bones and tendons are still growing, lifting weights may pose an injury risk -- but body weight exercises, like pushups, are safe and effective. Pushups are an upper-body strengthening exercise you can modify for kids if they can’t perform full repetitions when getting started

Let's finish the weekend with kicking....


Let's start the weekend with kicking....


Awesome smiles @ the end of the swim session......



Breaststroke

To improve your breaststroke technique your body position should be with your head facing forward in line with your body. Keep your shoulders, hips and legs as horizontal as possible but slope your body slightly to allow the leg kick to stay beneath the water.

Technique


Technique in swimming is so vital that being able to move through the water efficiently determines how well you swim far more than being in great shape does......

Breathing

Breathing on the side - keeping your head in the water 💦, while lifting your face out. When it's time to breathe, take a breath of air to the same side as the arm that is out of the water, keeping your head in the water 💦.
