Starts

Hey folks,

Back in the day, my start was one of my best features. I took eight years off before starting with USMS and now I seem to struggle off the start. The pool I train at does not have blocks so I was wondering if anyone had any tips on how to practice proper start technique (especially on these new edge blocks) without having blocks to train on. Thank you!

  • Will they let you dive off the pool deck. It’s not great but it’s better than nothing. One of the pools I work out out does not have blocks and I’ve done that an found it somewhat helpful.
