Triathletes Are Underestimating Swimming

Is swimming actually the biggest advantage a triathlete can have?

In this episode of Night Swim, we break down why so many triathletes may be underestimating the swimming portion of the sport. Running and cycling can improve with volume, but swimming requires technique, coordination, and years of skill development.

We discuss why triathletes who come from strong swimming backgrounds often have a major advantage, why simply swimming more can create huge gains, and why athletes should focus on their biggest limitation instead of chasing the most obvious problem.

We also talk about how improving your swim could potentially set you up for stronger cycling and running performances later in the race.

So is swimming the **TRIATHLON ADVANTAGE** that athletes are overlooking?

Let us know in the comments: **Should triathletes be swimming more?**
