Swim video analysis Aberdeen
See what your stroke really looks like. We film you above and below the water in our private endless pool, show you exactly what's slowing you down, and give you the drills to fix it.
Private endless pool in Bucksburn. Just you and the coach, no lane traffic.
Which sounds like you?
Most swimmers have never seen themselves swim. What you feel in the water and what's actually happening are often very different.
"I'm putting the work in but not getting faster"
More lengths with the same stroke just makes you better at the same mistakes. The video shows where your speed is leaking.
"I get out of breath really quickly"
It's rarely fitness. Lifting your head to breathe or holding your breath makes every length harder than it needs to be.
"It feels like I'm swimming uphill"
Sinking legs add a lot of drag. Underwater footage shows why your hips drop, and what to change.
"I've no idea what to work on"
You leave knowing your one or two biggest fixes, and the drills to practise them, so every swim has a purpose.
What we look for
We film from above and below the water, then watch it back with you, frame by frame.
Body position
Where your head, hips and legs sit in the water, and how much drag that creates.
Breathing
When and how you breathe, and whether it's pulling the rest of your stroke out of shape.
Catch and pull
How your hand enters and holds the water, which is where most of your speed comes from.
Kick and timing
Whether your kick helps or just tires you out, and how your arms and legs work together.
How the session works

- 2We film you. You swim in the endless pool while we record above and below the water.
- 3We watch it back together. We show you what's working, what isn't, and pick the changes that will make the biggest difference.
- 4You leave with a plan. Clear drills to practise. Choose stroke correction and we spend extra pool time fixing it with you there and then.

Video or propulsion analysis?
Video analysis shows you what your stroke looks like: your body position, breathing, timing and where things go wrong. It's the best place to start for most swimmers.
Propulsion analysis goes a step further. Sensors on your hands measure how much force each stroke actually produces, so you can see where you're losing speed. It suits club swimmers and triathletes who already have a solid stroke.
Questions
Who is swim video analysis for?
Anyone who wants to swim more easily or more quickly. We work with adult improvers, triathletes, open water swimmers and club and masters swimmers. You just need to be able to swim a few lengths of front crawl.
I'm not a confident swimmer. Is this for me?
Yes. Our pool is completely private, with no crowd and no lane traffic, and you can stop and stand whenever you need to. If you can't swim yet, our adult beginner lessons are a better place to start.
Where do the sessions take place?
At our private studio in Bucksburn, Aberdeen, in an endless pool. You swim against an adjustable current, so we can film you clearly from every angle.
Which option should I choose?
If you're not sure, choose video analysis with stroke correction. You find out what to change and spend time in the pool getting it right with us before you leave.
What should I bring?
Your swimsuit, goggles and a swim cap if you use one.
Can I come with a friend?
We run small group sessions for 2 or 3 people. Email us at info@total-endurance.co.uk and we'll find a time that suits you both.
