Description
Jonathan 'Jono' Adam, is a Bath Performance Centre swimmer as well as a double LEN Under 23 Champion. At the 2024 British Swimming Championships, he will be heading into the 100m Backstroke as the second-fastest seed. He's set to be one of the many hopefuls looking to make the British Swimming Olympic team in the 100m Back and go beneath the all-important Nomination Standard of 53.68
In an interview on the Propulsion Swimming Podcast, Jono shares why his preparations heading into Olympic Trials have built confidence in a potential 52-point second swim, and moreover, what it's like being teammates and even housemates with some of his biggest competition.
Key topics Jono discusses on the podcast:
?? Firstly, what was the main focus was on the recent Bath PC Training Camp in Australia.
? Training against Kaylee McKeown, in addition to his hardest set while down under.
? Why he hasn't had many in-season swims, and then why his confidence comes from a complete training block instead.
⭐ Where did his personal best swim at LEN U23's come from (53.45), and more importantly what tactics he will use to replicate and improve upon it.
?? How understanding skinfolds and his nutritional input out of the pool has led to improved performances in the pool.
?? Lastly, why it's important he's focusing on his own swim and not those of swimmers around him, like the ever-impressive Ollie Morgan.
