“So you lift weights?”

“Nah, I swim them.”

[Lokeydevs]

as a swimmer this is the hardest training I’ve ever done 😭

[tigeruealexander]

Aquaman been real quiet since this vid dropped.

[vivekreddy-ee]

As an ex Olympic medalist this was one of the best drill to improve your speed and resistance against the water

[Raphaellegend]

Now I see why there is so much New records and world records in the ongoing Olympic games. People are training like beasts everyday.

[KuriousGupta]

Incredibly difficult training hats off, but the weight he's pulling is actually 8kg not 80 because of the 5 pulleys in the contraption leading to a mechanical advantage of 10:1, which is also why the swimmer can cover so much distance while the weights barely move up, if the force ratio was 1:1 the weights would move up as much as the distance that is covered by the swimmer.

5 double pulleys translates to a weight of 8kg needed to lift it

[gidioneadonis]

This is one of those exercises where you can really feel, immediately, where your technique is lacking. Amazing!

[chicken]

Incredible training with impressive pulley system to reduce weight, still a killer workout.

[Joshskywalk]

As a 2012 Olympic gold medalist I can say without a doubt a very hard exercise

[bdc]

That is a lot of weight. But it looks like he has a 10:1 mechanical advantage though. This is designed in large part so that the structure only needs to be ~6 feet tall instead of lifting 1/10th this weight 50 meters.

[blitzchamp]

This should be included in the olympics...

[molecularbiosauce]

as someone who went to the pool when I was younger this is DEFINETELY something i could not do

[TheGrenadier]

This is the most impressive sports device i ever seen.

[chillout]

That's like a lever, less effort but a longer run

[razgrizbird]

80kg with 10x pulley wraps = 8kg pull weight. Hard, but not as hard as you might first think.

[its_a_salt_ed]

As a YouTube shorts addict, this was the hardest thing I ever watched 😮

[mustafasahin]

This is the first time in my life that I see such a training. I think this is the only workout that will work

[FiAdeleRollerCoasters]

At my swim practice we use one of these but instead of the weights it’s a big bucket full of water. The older and strongest swimmers even put more dumbbells in the tub of water to add more weight😅 we call it the power tower

[robertroles]

Nothing beats swimming up river in rapids
