Faster Fast
Sprint Freestyle Technique & Drills
Featuring Coach Richard Quick, Auburn Head Coach,
and Brett Hawke, Auburn Sprint Coach
Coaches Quick and Hawke begin this
presentation with a full stroke narrative of Cesar
Cielo’s
and Fred Bousquet’s freestyle, while sharing
the attributes of a technically sound freestyle stroke.
Next, they move into a stroke building progression
beginning with body balance and alignment drills
before adding propulsion to the balanced sprint position.
In the next segment, Quick and Hawke add body rotation
with drills that focus on a “core first” connection
to the body rotation along with instruction and drills
for taking the breath in a way that does not compromise
body alignment. Arm movement instruction includes
techniques and drills that create a “core to
extremity connection” for the sprint stroke.
Hawke shares several creative advanced technique
drills that he has incorporated into Auburn’s
sprinting routine. In the final segment, Bousquet
and Cielo swim a series of progressive speed sprints,
focusing upon increasing speed without compromising
technique. This DVD offers a rare opportunity to
learn by watching the two fastest sprinters in NCAA
history! 2008
