#SwimOn with Coach Camilla Bazley & Team Speedo

You can take us out of the water but you can’t slow us down! #TeamSpeedo Fitness Coach Camilla Bazley shares her dry land workouts to keep us moving and motivated.

When the world slowed down, we never turned off. We never lost sight of our goals – we adapted & got creative. Our homes became our gyms. We started trying new things, growing stronger in mind, body and spirit. As the pools and oceans reopen, we’re more ready than ever.
Maintain a focus on your swim training during dry land sessions and give these workouts a go. Target those muscles you rely heavily on in swimming and join Team Speedo @speedoaustralia and Fitness Ambassador Camilla Bazley @coach_camilla to #SwimOnTogether
