Description
Chuck Destro is the owner of Destro Machines. He created the Destro Swim Tower and other bucket system innovations.
“I graduated from Purdue University in 2014 as a mechanical engineer and swimmer. Afterwards, I spent several years as a machine designer in automotive and manufacturing facilities. What I learned is that making an athlete is a lot like making a machine. When we build a machine, we use exact measurements, designs, plans, schedules, and conduct trials. After each revision, we quantify performance and make the appropriate changes until we have the perfect performance. This is how swimmers should be training, but we don’t yet have the technology available to train this effectively. I founded Destro Machines so that I could develop the tools our sport needs to escape the dark ages of training. It is our promise to develop the best training technology that the swimming world has ever seen. Machines aren’t just what we make, Machines are who we make.” ― Chuck Destro, Co-Founder
