In this episode of The Effortless Swimming Podcast, I interview a friend of mine, Jon Muller. Jon is an author from Wellington, New Zealand and been following some of our swimming workouts and technique programs.
In the last couple of weeks, he finished writing a book about swimming which describes swimming in a way that really hits the nail on the head. Jon manages to describe how most swimmers and triathletes feel when they get into ‘flow’.
