Elite Performance

LTAD Stage:Training to Win-Ages 16+ (Maximising the engine)

This is the final stage of athletic preparation. The emphasis should be on specialisation and performance enhancement. All of the athlete’s physical, technical capacities should now be fully established with the focus shifting to the optimisation of performance. Athletes should be trained to peak for specific competitions and major events. Therefore, all aspects of training should be individualised for specific events. There should be either double, triple or multiple periodisation, depending on the events being trained for. During this stage, training should continue to develop strength, core body and maintain suppleness.

This squad is coached by our Head Coach Darren Ward and entry to this squad is by invitation only to swimmers who have the right attitude and commitment to become elite swimmers.
