Clement Secchi. 2024 French Olympian's Journey To Bronze Medal: Episode 190

In this episode, we are joined by French Olympic bronze medalist Clement Secchi following his experience at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Clem tells us what it was like to experience the support of the home crowd as a member of Team France, including seeing all the hype behind other French swim stars like Leon Marchand, Florent Manaudou, and Marie Wattel. Clem surprised no one when he disclosed it was Flo Manaudou behind the now-infamous shirtless on-stage party at Champions Park and that humble Leon Marchand was the last to take his shirt off. Clem also shares his swim journey with us, which has taken him from France to Montreal, Canada to Missouri, USA and back to Marseille France again as he’s ascended to become a world-class swimmer. We talk about his training influences including how he learns from the innovations of Olympic champion sprinter Cam McEvoy and is working on functional strength to apply it to the water in new ways.
