Show notes
Australian Kaylee McKeown is the reigning Olympic champion in the 100 and 200 Backstrokes. She is the fastest in history in the 100 LCM Back, 57.45. Last month she dropped 58.3/
Seeded first going into Tokyo, she pulled out of the 200 IM to focus on her backstroke swims. Kaylee recently made the move to Griffith University to swim with legendary swim coach Michael Bohl where IM is now a major focus. She just learned how to do the back-to-breast crossover turn.
This is a technical heavy episode with Kaylee talking about her backstroke catch, training for the 200 Backstroke, how she develops her mental game, how she holds water on her kick, and more.
It’s Mck-Q-N, not Mck-cow-n.
