#206: More Strength, Less Time: Nathan Oxford on S&C for Masters Swimmers

How much can you really achieve in the gym if you only have 40 minutes a week? 

Strength and conditioning coach Nathan Oxford works with some of the best Masters swimmers in the world, helping them make their time in the gym count. 

In this episode, Nathan shares practical advice for fitting effective strength and conditioning around a busy schedule - from fundamental movement patterns and supersets to making training more specific to your events. 

We look at how a small, consistent investment in the gym can complement your swimming, helping you build strength and power, reduce injury risk and become a more resilient athlete - and human - as you get older. 

If you think you don’t have time for strength training, this episode might change your mind. If you’re already doing strength work, there’s still plenty to learn by listening to Nathan’s advice.
