“Perfect Starts”: A Guide to Mastering Water Entry

Anyone who has seen Caeleb Dressel compete has likely pondered what exactly gives him that advantage, the hidden secret that enables him to launch off the blocks and reach 15 meters ahead of anyone else globally. In one of his newest videos, “Perfect Starts,” Dressel breaks everything down in just 10 minutes. It has already garnered 138,000 views – and for good reason.

The video begins with what Dressel refers to as “Step Zero”, transforming your pre-race routine into a well-oiled machine. Whether it involves a series of jumps, arm swings, or a personal ritual, consistency is crucial. Following that, Dressel discusses block positioning, offering insights on elements such as foot placement and the ideal stance for a powerful start. His counsel: maintain elevated hips, relaxed arms, and a focused mind.

To reinforce these teachings, Dressel presents three transformative drills: Donkey Kicks to enhance leg positioning, Medicine Ball Throws to coordinate arm-leg synchronization, and Standing Jumps to perfect clean water entry. His philosophy is straightforward: mastery requires time, but small, consistent efforts, what he terms “pennies in the piggy bank,” culminate in a “million-dollar launch.”
