If Only It Weren't for the Swim

If only it weren't for the swim...

But the swim is there-and you need to learn how to make it work for you.

Most adult triathletes spend years chasing the perfect technique, the miracle drill or the piece of equipment that will somehow fix everything. Then the distance increases, fatigue begins to matter, breathing becomes strained and that apparently flawless stroke starts to fall apart.

This book takes a different approach. Triathlon rewards a stroke that is effective, repeatable and sustainable under fatigue-one that gets you out of the water with enough energy left to ride and run well.

With technical insight, direct language and a healthy dose of irony, Stefano La Cara "Strong" explains how to develop a swim that works in the real world of triathlon. From body position, catch, breathing and kick to training structure, pacing and open-water skills, every topic is approached with one practical objective: helping age-group triathletes swim more efficiently without wasting time and energy in the pool.

Written especially for adult-onset swimmers, this book combines coaching experience, scientific evidence and lessons learned from years of training and racing over long distances.

Stefano La Cara "Strong" is a Trisutto-certified triathlon coach, founder of Team Panda and PandaLab Training, and a fifteen-time Ironman finisher.

Foreword by Chrissie Wellington OBE, four-time Ironman World Champion and undefeated in all thirteen of her races over the distance.
