On this week's episode of Torpedo Swimtalk Podcast we chat to Kylie Fletcher, a decorated masters swimmer from the recent World Masters Championships in Japan. We take a deep dive with Kylie into the exhilarating, sometimes nerve-wracking world of competitive masters swimming and discuss significant takeaways about overcoming challenges and achieving personal bests. From her victorious silver medal win in the 200 backstroke to her experiences in the 50 and 100 backstrokes, 50 freestyle, and 50 fly, Kylie's candid chat about performance and mindset is a great learning tool for all swimmers.

Kylie also shares with us the exciting story of winning a competition to be part of a mixed relay with Olympic Gold Medallist Susie O'Neill and the opportunities that stemmed from that experience. We also delve into the nitty-gritty of her training schedule, where she shares insights into her favourite exercises, and how she incorporates social elements into her training sessions. Moreover, discover the essential role routines and habits play in maintaining motivation, especially during those challenging early mornings.

We also explore the technical aspects of Kylie's swimming. She sheds light on her drills and main sets, her use of paddles and bands for added challenge, and training for sprints. As we journey through the episode, Kylie's appreciation for the social aspect of masters swimming, her belief in being a racer, and her technical knowledge add depth to the conversation. 

So gear up for an episode that promises to keep you engaged, inspired, and set to make a splash in your own swimming endeavours!
