Today Tassie and I spent all day inside the house. I take that back. I spent all day inside the house, Tassie went in the backyard to hunt birds and squirrels periodically.
I was glued to the computer...final editing for our Powerstroke: Speed through force and form DVD. I am actually nearly done with everything at this point - just a couple more edits and voiceovers for stroke analysis, then we send it to a local production company to put a nice DVD menu together and perhaps fancy a couple things up. My chum Bill Payne has already designed the DVD cover and labeling. It will rock.
You should buy at least one of these most excellent DVDs, if not one for you and every member of your family.
Here is a preview of what the DVD includes:
Part 1) 30 minute lecture and Q&A: What is Powerstroke?
Part 2) 27 minute analysis - the Three Types of Swim Strokes for Freestyle and how to improve:
Type 1: Elbow slip
Type 2) Straight arm pull
Type 3) High elbow catch / early vertical forearm
Part 3) 15 minute explanation & analysis - Powerstroke as a drill, stroke form, and way of swimming
Part 4) Additional drills & voice over explanation analysis (1 hour):
- Catch up drill
- 1-arm drill
- Fist drill
- Techpaddle (drill)
- Sculling
- 6-kick on side rotation drill
- Doggy paddle drill
Part 5) Dryland stretches and supplementary exercises
It is more than two hours, part of the reason it has taken me a couple years from conception to completion to get it done. I did not want to outsource production and distribution, so we could call it our baby.
If you work in the triathlon or swim fitness industry and would like to stock it, let me know. Please help spread the word.
