Timothy Warren+FollowWhy Do Some Swimmers Pull More Water? 💪As a state-level competitor in swimming, I’ve noticed something wild: some folks just move more water than others, no matter their build or strength. I’ve been outswam in the 50 free by guys way leaner and less bulky than me. Technique’s the obvious answer, but what’s the secret sauce? Everyone’s pull phase looks nearly identical, yet some swimmers just glide faster. What are they doing to grip the water like that?

Stacey Hart+FollowWhy do guys always think they can beat female swimmers? As a female swimmer, does anyone else deal with this? I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve heard some guy—who doesn’t even swim regularly—say he could beat me in a race just because I’m a woman. It’s always the same: a casual comment, a bit of smugness, and then surprise when they actually get in the pool and realize… swimming is a skill, not just ego and muscle. And yes, it’s a little satisfying to quietly prove them wrong, but also a bit frustrating that this mindset still exists. Is this something other women in the sport experience too? Or to the guys who think this way—what exactly is going through your head? #Swimming #WomenInSports #Sports #RespectTheSport #FemalePlayers 2636Share
