This book has been updated and expanded and is now published as "Swim Speed Secrets for Swimmers and Triathletes". 

Learn from four time Olympian Sheila Taormina how to develop the Freestyle Swim Technique Used by the Fastest Swimmers in the World.

Are you a triathlete or masters swimmer who is stumped as to why your swimming times have not improved at the rate you expected, considering all the time you’ve spent at the pool? Or, perhaps you are an age-group swimmer who has hit a plateau and now swims with less enthusiasm than you once had, or you are wondering what it takes to reach the next level? Maybe you are someone who would like to participate in a triathlon but feels overwhelmed by the swim?

“Call The Suit” is the book on freestyle technique that answers the questions above and provides an understanding of the aspects at play within the beautiful sport of swimming. Written by the smallest swimmer to win Olympic gold since the 1920 Olympics, Sheila describes propulsion, feel, and the critical components of the swim stroke that the fastest swimmers in the world have mastered.

Appropriate for beginners through national elite level swimmers and triathletes. Every coach and athlete should own a copy of this book. Enjoy the most crisp, clear, fascinating photos ever taken of what is happening under the water by the best swimmers from the 1960’s through to Beijing 2008.

“Call The Suit” is as visually striking as it is informative. Enjoy swimming freestyle with this new perspective.
