Dry side Training
Poynton Dippers run land based training each Monday night at the Vernon Junior School. The sessions are led by Dave Miles and supported by coach Chris. Dave is an Active IQ Level 3 Diploma in Fitness Instructing and Personal Training.
Both Dave and Chris have been running these sessions for some time now and the sessions remaining extremely popular with our swimmers. The sessions are aimed at swimmers who are 10 years old and above, and open to all of our squads. The session exercises are adapted to meet the needs of those of different ages and levels of fitness.
During lockdown Dave and Chris recorded a number of Youtube videos to help our swimmers continue their training when stuck at home. Those videos continue to be available for anyone to follow and also give you an idea of what to expect from land training if you've not been before. Thank you to Dave and Chris for all their hard work in putting these together.
