While Lauren and Alex will be sharing their secrets to becoming some of Britain's fastest athletes and how their tumble turn speed has been pivotal in their success. Likewise, swimmers will get the opportunity to develop the Backstroke to Breaststroke Medley cross-over turn during their time with Will, who will breakdown and explore how this turn sets you up for the third section of your IM race.
