CoreControl

  • Control the rotation and power of your core
  • Help flatten the spine for better swim posture
  • Center adjusts up or down to fit most swimmers
  • Side bars extend out to force hip rotation to match the stroke (like Hip Fins)
  • Quick to put on and off
  • 3 position quick clip allows it to extend to match most body sizes

Additional Uses/Tips/Support:

Spine Alignment:

  • Easier to feel how to align the spine than other options
  • Other core/spine alignment options don’t allow you to feel how to fully flatten your back
  • You can add a 1swimbelt just below the chest to help draw in the spine

Hip Rotation:

  • Fully connect the shoulders and the hips to ensure full connection
  • Slide out the hip extensions to block the stroke from exiting without the hips properly rotated out of the way
  • Less noticeable when swimming than hip fins as there is almost no resistance front-to-back or side-to-side

Swim Freestyle

  • Connect the rotation of shoulders and hips
  • Pull Only Freestyle – helps connect a 1 beat and 3 beat kick by training proper rotation timing
  • Train the back to flatten to match the pipe on the spine
  • Optionally, slide the lower side pipes out so the arm will hit the bar if the swimmer does not rotate the hips out of the way properly

Swim Backstroke

  • Connect the rotation of shoulders and hips
  • Helps create rotation so the catch starts underwater
  • Train the back to flatten to match the pipe on the spine
  • Helps create a ‘push’ phase instead of the older ‘downsweep’ exit style stroke
    • this can be enhanced by sliding the lower side pipes out so the arms will hit the pipes

Swim Breaststroke

  • Helps draw the hips forward as legs recover
  • Minimizes the degree of ‘fly’ undulation into the extension/glide phase
  • Improves body awareness of side-to-side lopsided breast stroke
    • Train the back to flatten to match the pipe on the spine

Swim Butterfly

  • Helps minimize the undulation so swimmers don’t drive down too deep
  • Helps keep the breathing ‘low and forward’ instead of too high out of water
  • Helps timing of the 2nd kick on the butterfly
    • Train the back to flatten to match the pipe on the spine

Improve Bilateral Undulations

  • Train the Flow Drill (or Rib Hinge) to ensure shallow, chest-lead (rib hinge) undulations
  • The CoreControl during undulations and flow drills can make it hard to lead with your head

Straighter Spine with Streamlines Off the Walls

  • Train the back to flatten to match the pipe on the spine
  • A bowed back causes the hips create drag resistance by ‘pushing’ water in front of the hips
  • Place your fingers in the gap between the bar and the spine to demonstrate the problems

Straighten the Back on Free and Back

  • Practice kick sets with the CoreControl to train swimmers to flatten their back to the bar
