Strength coaching built for swimmers, so you get faster without the pain.
Swim-specific strength and mobility, personalised to your body and your events, delivered online. The right work in the right amount, so it makes you quicker in the water instead of leaving you tired for it.
Most swimmers are strong enough in the water. It's on land where they're being held back.
Nearly every plateau, and most of the shoulder, hip and back pain that comes with swimming, traces back to a weak link or a tight spot on land. The pool hides it. We find it and fix it.
- Strength training built around your events and your body so it actually transfers to speed in the water
- Mobility work for the shoulders, hips and ankles so your technique holds up and the niggles stay away
- Proper rehab for the injuries you've been carrying done deep enough that they stop coming back
- The least training that works, usually two to three short sessions a week so you get stronger without being drained for the pool
- Coached directly by me, adjusted as you go not a generic plan off a shelf
Who I work with
Women's masters swimmers 40+
You've still got speed in you. The problem is your training hasn't changed since your 20s and your body has. I help masters swimmers get fast again, get their energy back, and swim without the pain, with strength work that fits around real life.

Talent gets a swimmer noticed. Times get them recruited. I help teenage swimmers build the strength and power that turns talent into the times college coaches look for, and stay injury-free through the years that matter most.

Masters swimmerQuestions people ask
Is the coaching online?
Yes, all of it. I work with swimmers all over the world. Your programme is delivered through a training app and I coach and adjust it as you go.
How much time does it take each week?
Usually two to three short strength sessions a week, around 45 minutes each, plus a little mobility. It's built to fit around your pool training and your life, not take it over.
Is this swimming lessons or stroke coaching?
No. SwimStrength is strength and mobility training done on land, built specifically so it transfers to faster, pain-free swimming. It works alongside your pool coaching.
What happens on the call?
We look at where your swimming is now, what's holding it back, and what you want. Then I'll tell you honestly whether I can help and what a plan would look like. It's a conversation, not a pitch.
Do you work with injuries?
Yes. A lot of swimmers come to me in pain. We rehab it properly, with the strength and mobility underneath it, rather than patching it over.
Ready to swim faster without the pain?
Pick the one that's you and apply. It takes a couple of minutes, then you book a call and we go from there.
