Having represented his country with distinction, including winning Gold Medals at the 2014 European Championships and Commonwealth Games, Adam Barrett is the British record-holder in the 100m Butterfly (Short Course). He retired from elite swimming in 2017, only to embark on one of the more inspiring returns to the top tier of swimming that included a Master's World Record along the way. 

He completed his return to the elite level of the sport in 2021 after being selected to swim for Energy Standard in ISL, and will be representing England at this summer's Commonwealth Games in Birmingham

On top of this, we also talk about his current adventure as a head coach of his local swimming club, how he inspires his swimmers without comparing them to his own achievements in the sport and what advice he'd give to other former swimmers just starting out on their coaching career!

On this weeks episode of the Propulsion Swimming Podcast, we speak to GB deaf swimmer, Nathan Young about the lack of funding the UK government gives to help him on his journey to become a Deaflympic Champion.   

After the huge success of British Swimming at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, the UK government has now given more funding towards Olympic and Paralympic Sport in the lead up to the Paris 2024 Games. Sadly for our guest Nathan, even though he is one of the top deaf swimmers in the world, he won't get any part of that funding at all.  

 We also talk about his current campaign of trying to build up exposure of GB deaf swimming, how he thinks that the Deaflympics should be on a level playing field with the Olympics and Paralympics, and what it's like being a swimmer living with the disability of having your hearing impaired.

Addressing the Dropout in Swimming

On this week's Propulsion Swimming Podcast we discuss and address the reasons that many teenagers leave the sport when in reality their swimming journey has just begun!

There are so many reasons that kids drop out of swimming. It could be a change in interests, clashes with a coach, burnout, job opportunities, and many more. For me, I struggled to understand with a lack of improvement in the pool and why my times all of a sudden stopped falling. It was never explained to me that when I hit 16/17 that my body may have stopped changing and PB's were going to be a lot harder to come by. This combined with a clash in training style with my coach meant I turned my focus quickly towards study and academia.

I clearly love the sport of swimming, that never went, I now co-run a successful swimming YouTube, so are there any adjustments that could have happened during my journey through the sport that meant I didn't leave the pool so soon?

On this week's Propulsion Swimming Podcast we take a deep dive into how we can stop kids from dropping out of the sport, which is especially important given this prolonged period out of the water. Does swimming in the UK have a fundamental issue with times being the gold standard and not enjoyment? And if there is an adjustment towards enjoying racing, winning, and points competitions - like many competitions are across the pond - would we see more swimmers stay racing for a longer time?

If you only listen to one of our podcasts this year, please make it this one. We'd love to hear your thoughts on this topic!!

This week on the Propulsion Swimming Podcast we are joined by Erin Robertson.   

At age 16 Erin was Commonwealth Youth Champion and an age group record holder. However just 14 months later she was left feeling like a complete and utter failure, and as if she had let down every last person who had ever supported her. Because of those feelings, she left the sport.  

That was roughly 5/6 years ago and since then, she has returned to competitive swimming and has a newfound love for the sport again.   

We wanted to speak to Erin on this week's episode to discuss what lessons can be taken away from her journey through the sport, especially as an age group swimmer. Whether that be her USRPT training, racing at national championships at an age as young as 12, and how the pressure put on her by the media affected her mental health.  

We hope that others can improve their own journey through the sport by listening to this conversation and know if you step away from the sport of swimming, the enjoyment can come back, just like it has for Erin!

From Lydia Jacoby to Summer McIntosh, on this week's Propulsion Swimming Podcast we take a look at who are the future female stars in swimming!!  

One thing that was abundantly clear after the 2021 Tokyo Olympics, a new dawn of swimming is upon us. With masses of World Junior Records being set over the last two years, we thought we'd break down who are going to be the future contenders for the top prizes in our sport!!   

Unlike Part 1 (Men's), of this two-part special of the Propulsion Swimming Podcast, we had a much tougher time narrowing down our list. With incredible swimmers like Benedetta Pilato and Torri Huske only gaining honourable mentions, it's clear to see that female swimming is in an incredible place moving forwards!!   

Who do you think is going to win the most medals out of the stars we've suggested?!

How To Get Back Into Swimming Shape Safely

In this episode of the Propulsion Swimming Podcast we are talking about a topic we've wanted to cover for such a long time, returning to training safely. Many swimmers have now spent the longest period out of pool since they first starting swimming, so it is imperative to adjust focus when getting back in the pool.  

We discuss how swimmers should now be aiming to correct their technique and avoiding injury rather than quickly aiming to get back into competitive swimming shape and fitness.
