5 Out of Water Exercises

To Complete before starting your swim practice.

What we do outside of the water is just as important as what we do in the water.  

As an example, a community member posted this yesterday:

I believe the issue here is equal parts tension from fear…

And tension from a lack of warm-up, before starting the lesson.

So, what are the best warm-up stretches/movements to get our upper body ready?

Here is what we do at Unlock Your Fearless Swimmer with all of our students:

Exercise 1: Arm Circles Forward

Exercise 2: Arm Circles Backwards

Exercise 3: Floppy Arms Side to Side

Exercise 4: Shoulder Rolls Forward

Exercise 5: Shoulder Rolls Backwards

Complete these 5 movements before every swim session to help your body loosen up, before beginning your in-water movements.

Work smarter.

Not Harder.

BIG Love,
Coaches Jeff and Meredith
