Andrii is a World Junior Champion and a World Championship Finalist in the 50m Butterfly. From 2021 onwards he started coaching in swimming on all levels, from beginners all the way to professional swimmers. Fast forward to 2024, Andrii founded his own swim school, the AA Swim School in Singapore.

In this episode, Andrii and myself start off by talking about his past swim career. We dive deep into the topics of his training programmes, dealing with pressure and anxiety ahead of big competitions, such as the World Championships, and the transition away from being a professional athlete

Further into the podcast we discuss important points to look out for in swimming. We evaluate the differences and importance of technique, swimming in triathlon and differences in open water and pool swimming.

If you are interested in swimming, a novice but want to improve in swimming or a triathlete struggling with his swimming, this is the exact podcast for you. However, if you are just generally interested in sports and/or success story of a young athlete, you too are in the right place!

All there is left to say is enjoy!
