Ben Lee has been amazing! My daughter is excited to get her booty kicked by Ben twice a week! She loved working out with him and felt such a great connection that she asked if she could attend his next 4 week session! Being able to have that one on one experience while being out of the pool makes this time much more manageable.

My son was able to easily check in. I was not able to go in with him due to social distancing. My son truly appreciated the work with take offs on the blocks. He enjoyed the adjustments with his dolphin kicking. And he was quite encouraged to hear the swimmers’ stories afterward. Brett and Tyler were very encouraging to him, especially as he asked them training questions. Very informative and personal for the swimmers. The instructors were very approachable and encouraging to the learning swimmer. They shared their own experiences and were very relatable to the swimmers. Thank you!

FFT Insider: Being on the iconic 1996 Team USA Olympic Relay – Review

May 20th, 2020

My 12 year old daughter has participated in many of the FFT Live Webinars over the last few weeks.
First and foremost—THANK YOU to you and all those who make these happen!  I have had the opportunity to sit in the same room as my daughter and listen to many of them.  All have been good and have many takeaways for an athlete who works very hard at a sport she loves.  Today’s was amazing!  Hearing not only about the actual race itself, I believe having the men talk about their “early years” as well as what they are doing now is very important (in my opinion) for these young athletes to know.
Just wanted to say THANK YOU for doing these – especially at no cost…..it helps make a difference to those who are financially struggling right now.
THANK YOU!

‘Swimming message’ has been on point!

May 13th, 2020

My kids have done some of your clinics in the past and I have watched many of your presentations.
I swam at Columbia College in the 90s, did some HS coaching, have done a lot of officiating, and now I coach a masters group at our summer pool & I have learned a lot from Fitter and Faster.
I have used Tyler McGill’s dryland ideas and Lee Sommer’s strength training for myself and for my kids in our basement and garage. Whenever we get back to the pool, I will use / test out many of the ideas presented by your great clinicians.
These videos are amazing & the Gail Devers & Carl Lewis presentations were fantastic.
Thanks a lot! Your company was absolutely not flat-footed when this crisis hit the world and the swimming community. The politician’s message shift, but your ‘swimming message’ has been on point!

Keep up the great work

March 6th, 2020

Thank you for the awesome job you are doing, You all are such an inspiration and wealth of knowledge to all children and parents attending. Keep up the great work and know that 1 of kids you are teaching could be a future Olympian. They did a great job in really going into all of details of the stroke and followed them up with different techniques to help practice what they have learned.

Made his Zone cut!

March 6th, 2020

I’ve held off on writing a review until now in order to better evaluate the advice given. I can honestly say now that this camp made a huge difference in my son’s swimming. He dropped time in his breast stroke immediately following the clinic, but the real tangible results showed today. He’d been making small time improvements and inching his way towards his Great Lakes Zone cut, but today I finally had the opportunity to be on deck with him before his races (I’m not a coach). This gave me the opportunity to remind him about Kristi’s “free speed” advice on his turns. He finally put it all together and not only made his Zone cut, but obliterated his previous best by 1.77 seconds! Had he not gone to the camp, and had I not been allowed to participate in it with him, I’m honestly not sure if he would have made Zones. Thank you for a fantastic experience! Thank you Kristi for helping Noah achieve his dreams!!

Third Clinic!

March 6th, 2020

We have two daughters Alayna (8) and Alexia (10) we have attended 3 clinics in the past and have had a great experience at each and everyone! Thank you for spending your time improving these kiddos that love and enjoy the sport of swimming. Our girls have learned skills and always dropped time after attending the clinics. They now swim USA and have a JO qualifying time.

Best clinic to date

March 6th, 2020

Aubryanna said it was the best clinic so far. She loved how both Christopher and Ben got in the pool and worked with them on technique. She is excited to use the backstroke start and the turn in her daily practice. I want to thank both Christopher and Ben for teaching all that was covered in such a thorough way and done on the age level of the swimmers attending. It was upbeat and delivered a very positive environment. It was also appreciated that they included the parents and grandparents in understanding the techniques and how to keep reinforcing the swimmer. It is taught by Olympians, world champions and coaches who know first hand what worked for them and how it can work for the swimmer attending. Knowing that what they are teaching brought true results for them means so much more. This was absolutely the best clinic to date. So sad we can’t do it every day!!!

Thank you both!

I want to take the time to say that you guys touched my heart when you continue to work and engage with Braden. He has very low self esteem when it comes to the way he looks (due to med for his breathing) but swimming has improved his lungs and hopefully his self esteem.
THANK YOU BOTH……

WE LOVE YOU!

March 6th, 2020

We asked them and the drills we did on Saturday, the start drills is what they all liked the most. They all remembered the “cactus arms” and liked jumping off the blocks. What everyone found amazing was watching Clark do a butterfly turn inside a chair and not bump his head or his long arms. OF COURSE they all loved it when they got to race them at the end!! WE LOVE YOU! Your energy, enthusiasm, knowledge and amazing achievements completely rubbed off on our kids, and they all love swimming but I know for a fact they all love it even more after this event, and they all want to be Olympians 🙂
