MAC Online Swim Practices
Each weekday during our time out of the pool we hope to cover one topic related to swimming with some short videos, questions, and additional resources to keep learning about and practicing the daily topic. We will be including various “dryland” exercises that will help strengthen a particular skill covered in the day’s topic. I am also including links to other videos and workouts related to the day’s topic.
