About
Duration: 1 Hour | CEU Points awarded: 1 General (CEUs), Level 1, Accreditation Number: PPB007/2025/04/009 This one-hour CPD course provides a cutting-edge exploration of advanced stroke technique and contemporary training methods in competitive swimming. Aimed at physiotherapists, coaches, and sports professionals, the session offers in-depth analysis of stroke mechanics across freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly. Participants will examine high-level technical elements such as high elbow pull, axis-based rotation, 6-beat kicking patterns, and streamlined body positioning. The course highlights evolving trends, including the “open armpit” cue in freestyle catch, timing in breaststroke whip kicks, and refined coordination strategies that underpin efficient, powerful swimming. Alongside biomechanics, the course introduces modern training philosophies, notably Ultra Short Race Pace Training (USRPT), which prioritizes intensity and race-pace precision over traditional volume-heavy models. Emphasis is placed on technical consistency under fatigue, training specificity, and performance optimization. Through video analysis, practical breakdowns, and theory, attendees will gain a scientifically grounded and application-ready framework for enhancing stroke performance in elite swimmers. Ideal for professionals looking to integrate the latest techniques and evidence-based training principles into aquatic sports practice.
