IMPROVE YOUR STROKE - AND GET FASTER!

Do you want to know why swimmers times began dropping so drastically in the early 2000s and continuing through today? The answer is video analysis! Since so much of the stroke happens below water – it is incredibly important to see what’s going on below the surface! Swimmers in recent years have been able to analyze their stroke with coaches to make technical changes that make them more efficient. This is your opportunity to get beautiful footage of your stroke and get analysis from one of the top coaches in the world... and review at home with your coach.

    FILMING DAY - SEPTEMBER 28

    The team of professional videographers who shot the videos for Fitter and Faster's Swim Videos On Demand are coming to Glassboro, NJ to capture a video below and above water of your swimmer. Then, that video will be passed to Olympic coach Todd Schmitz. He will analyze and provide detailed information for you. Here's how the process will work:

    • SIGN UP: Select to have one stroke filmed. Or, SAVE by choosing to have two, or all four strokes filmed. Select either Filming Session 1 (between 8:00 AM and 12:00 PM) or Filming Session 2 (between 12:00 PM and 4:00 PM). The "multi-stroke options" can not be split between more than one swimmer.
    • ORDER NUMBER: You will receive an e-mail a week before the filming session with the specific time for your swimmer to check in, warm up, and be filmed. Please retain your order number - this is how swimmers will be identified on that schedule.
    • ARRIVING AT THE POOL: When you arrive at the pool, you will be greeted by Fitter and Faster staff who will provide you instructions on the filming process.
    • WARM UP: Swimmers will have an opportunity to warm up before filming. This is strongly recommended to get an accurate recording of each swimmer.
    • FILMING: Our camera operator will have each swimmer swim two 25s at a strong pace of each stroke purchased (1, 2, or 4). The filming of each stroke should take a little less than three minutes. The video will capture a side angle and a front angle simultaneously below and above water to get an accurate view of your swimmer's technique.
    • HIGH QUALITY FOOTAGE: The cameras used in this shoot are the same ones used in the filming of Fitter and Faster's Swim Videos on Demand!

    ANALYSIS

    The video captured at the filming day will then be sent to Olympic coach and age group coach of Missy Franklin Todd Schmitz to be analyzed.

    • ANALYSIS: Todd Schmitz will use a video analysis application to record his thoughts on each video. Swimmers can expect him to use slow motion, pause the video at specific points, and draw on their video all while talking to explain where each swimmer can improve their technique. Each stroke will have 5 to 7 minutes of expert commentary that you can review with your coaches at home!
    • DRILL RECOMMENDATIONS: Todd will make recommendations for drills to correct the technique of each swimmer. He will assign specific drill videos in Swim Videos on Demand that he suggests the swimmer practice to improve. Each participant is getting a free month of Swim Videos on Demand to use to make their necessary stroke corrections.
    • TIMELINE: Videos will be analyzed in the order in which people sign up! The first people to sign up will be the first to get their analysis back! All videos will be completely and thoroughly analyzed and sent back to the participants via email within 21 days of filming.
    • EXAMPLE: See the example video below to see the quality of the video and an example of the analysis.

    SPACE IS LIMITED - SIGN UP BEFORE ALL OF THE TIME SLOTS ARE GONE!
