Episode 28 - what does fighting on the front-line of COVID-19, shoulder injury and learning a 2-beat kick have in common? Dr Jess Potter, that's what!
In today's podcast, we speak with Jess Potter, our online video analysis competition winner from a couple of weeks ago.
The conversation with Jess - a respiratory specialist from London, UK who's been fighting on the front-line over the pandemic - was so engaging that we thought you might benefit from her story in podcast form, if you wish to see the video analysis, please pop over to this YouTube link.
The video analysis commences at ~20 minutes into the clip. In it, we discuss the following:
how Jess's hand entry has led to some shoulder injury woes and how to fix them
how Jess's pull-through on her left precludes her from being able to breathe bilaterally as comfortably as she'd like
how Jess has been unable to master a 2-beat leg kick for marathon swimming because of her catch and pull through...fix these up though and she (and you!) could be onto a winner!
Enjoy!
