  • Beyond Dryland: A Philosophy of Athletic Development for Swimmers

    Beyond Dryland: A Philosophy of Athletic Development for Swimmers
    By Chris Webb on SwimSwam
    The problem with the term “dryland” is that it encourages us to think of training outside the water as a separate activity. Swimming happens in the pool. Dryland happens somewhere else.
