Sculling - moving your hand back and forth in the water, at your hips, your shoulder or over your head to keep your body balanced in the water while providing some propulsion. More specifically, this means to gently propel yourself through the water by moving your hands close to and just under your hips, using the figure-eight pattern. Basically, just easily push yourself through the water on your back.

Print Add-On Strength Training
Who is the plan for?
This program should be used for an athlete who wants to incorporate strength training. This is useful for injury prevention, for older athletes interested in increasing bone density and resting metabolism, and athletes who want to increase power.
Plan schedule
The schedule consists of 2 days of strength training and core work. The idea is to use this plan in conjunction with any of our other plans.
Weight Training and Core Strength
This program is adapted from The Training Bible and has been tweaked to include some exercises that we think are important. The program should be fairly balanced between core and strength training.
