Dax & Elvis go OFF on why American swimming is falling behind internationally… and the answer is KICKING. The national-team director Greg Meehan finally admitted it: weak flutter kick + weak underwaters = cooked on the world stage. Elvis: “Club teams treat kicking like an afterthought — I only got good when college forced me to care” Dax drops the biomechanics bomb: “Kick from your knees, not your hips. Especially if you’re Black and built like a powerlifter — stop tearing up your quads!” Real examples: 9-year-olds going 1.11–1.13 for 100 kick, another girl drops from 2.10 to 1.19 in months. Why Lochte & Phelps ruined the underwater game and made everyone forget how to actually flutter kick. If you’re a coach, swimmer, or parent tired of watching kids sink — this is the uncomfortable truth the sport doesn’t want to say out loud. 🔥 Like, comment your 100 kick PR, and subscribe — we’re dropping the realest swimming takes every week.#Swimming #USASwimming #Kicking #SprintTraining #NightSwimPodcast 🌙 Night Swim PodcastWhen the pool lights go out, the real talk begins.

Penny Oleksiak gets hit with a two-year ban for three missed tests… but is this actually a big deal, or just anti-doping politics? In this Night Swim clip, Elvis and Dax use Penny’s situation to unpack how the drug testing game really works at the elite level: Why three missed “whereabouts” tests = automatic suspension. What it’s like to log your location 24/7 for six months at a time. How easy it is to fall out of the testing pool and quietly use banned meds. TUEs, prednisone, inhalers, Adderall and other “legal cheat codes. Why drug makers are 12–14 steps ahead of the testers. NCAA microdosing stories, miracle injury drugs, and false walls at meets. Why swimming is probably way dirtier than fans want to believe. 🌙 Night Swim PodcastWhen the pool lights go out, the real talk begins.

The CSCAA Dual Meet Challenge were supposed to “revolutionize” college swimming…But did they? Or was it just chaos wrapped in overalls and weird bracket rules?In this clip, Dax and Elvis break down one of the strangest meets we’ve seen in years — including why the format confused everyone, why no one could understand the scoring, and why gimmicks cannot save the sport.We dig into:The NCAA / CSCAA attempt at innovation — and where it went wrongWhy the rules made zero sense (even after reading them seven times)Why swimming keeps trying gimmicks instead of fixing the productSwimming in overallsWhy marketing is swimming’s Achilles heelWhat actually makes a swim meet entertainingWhy ideas FROM swimming people usually make the sport worseAs Dax puts it:“If the idea comes from within swimming… it’s going to suck.”“Our sport is so inbred we don’t know our cousin from our uncle.”🌙 Night Swim PodcastWhen the pool lights go out, the real talk begins.

Did Ozempic just become the newest performance enhancer in sports? Dax and Elvis break down whether GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy actually give athletes an advantage — and whether they should be considered a legal “cheat code.” They discuss Ozempic (semaglutide/GLP-1 agonists) as a potential performance enhancer: appetite suppression for quick fat loss, but risks like muscle wasting, under-fueling, GI issues, and poor recovery. Elvis mentions a TikTok he did asking if it should be seen as a PED, with comments debating muscle loss vs. benefits (e.g., dropping 5lbs for faster times). Dax shares his personal experience with ulcerative colitis causing rapid weight loss ("Daxempic"), using it as a disclaimer for his views, and criticizes using it unethically for efficiency over hard training. They touch on dangers for athletes (e.g., high-volume training on an empty stomach) and why it's "sketchy" for race weight, though okay for medical use like diabetes.🌙 Night Swim PodcastWhen the pool lights go out, the real talk begins.

Dax & Elvis go DEEP on the current generation of “super suits” – Mizuno GX Sonic, Arena Carbon Air², Speedo LZR Pure Valor 2.0, TYR Venzo, etc. Are these new double-layer, triple-layer, air-trapping jammers actually bringing back the banned 2009 polyurethane era… or is it all just marketing hype? Elvis tells the wild story of racing in a 2017 suit that literally kept his dead legs kicking when he was completely out of shape Dax explains why he felt ZERO difference between briefs and the newest jammers Why every Olympic cycle magically drops “10% faster” suit tech right on time The secret double-layer trick that supposedly still traps air (even though it’s “illegal”) Are today’s kids breaking records because of coaching, genetics, more Black & Caribbean talent… or because the suits are low-key juiced? 🌙 Night Swim PodcastWhen the pool lights go out, the real talk begins.

Dax and Elvis dive deep into Dressel's announcement of training with Steve Jungbluth at JAX. They break it down hard: he's lost that killer swagger, stuck in limbo with commuting between Gainesville and Jacksonville, half-assing elite training/recovery, and prioritizing "nice guy" vibes over GOAT mentality. Dax calls it out - "He's doing everything right as a nice guy, everything wrong as a killer sprinter" - while Elvis adds he needs to "get that dog back" and even jokes about being his "cupcake" sparring partner. They tie it to broader athlete mindset stuff, like being selfish to reclaim dominance (deadlifts and verts aside). 🌙 Night Swim PodcastWhen the pool lights go out, the real talk begins.

Dax and Elvis dive deep into the controversial Enhanced Games – the TRT-fueled meet paying swimmers millions while World Aquatics watches from the cheap seats. Is it a greedy publicity stunt, a much-needed wake-up call for pro swimming pay, or the ugly basketball-style grind the sport desperately needs? From $200K salaries to questioning who was really juiced back in the tech-suit era, the boys hold nothing back. Clock it. 🕐💉 Night Swim Podcast When the pool lights go out, the real talk begins.
