A new paradigm in swimming training is born in Forlì, in the heart of Romagna: an innovative method dedicated to expanding opportunities for swimming. This revolutionary approach is not limited to offering simple swimming courses, but is committed to creating a unique and engaging experience for each individual. Based on three fundamental pillars, this method redefines water training:

1. The Goals: At the heart of it all are the individual goals of each swimmer. Whether it is to improve performance, achieve a certain level of fitness or simply enjoy the water, our method adapts and customises to help each individual realise their goals.

2. Individual Capacities: We recognise that each person is unique and has different physical abilities and goals. Therefore, we strive to design training programmes that take into account the specific abilities and needs of each swimmer, ensuring a safe, effective and rewarding training experience.

3. The Fun: Training must be fun and rewarding, to allow us to move those intrinsic motivations that allow us to give continuity to exercise and not feel fatigue. With our method, we ensure that each training session is a positive and engaging experience that leaves a smile on every swimmer's face. Whether swimming for pure pleasure or pursuing more ambitious goals, we ensure that every moment in the water is fun and rewarding.

These three pillars form the basis of our approach to swimming training. With a strong focus on personalisation, safety and fun, we are determined to transform the water training experience and take swimming to a new level of excellence and satisfaction for all enthusiasts.

In the vast panorama of technical services for swimming pools and professionals, a new wave of innovation is emerging to raise expectations and performance in the world of swimming: Swimbox. With the aim of extending our impact and spreading the benefits of our innovative approach, we created the Swimbox Mastery project. Aimed at industry professionals such as sports facility managers and pool managers, this project aims to improve the user experience and offer highly customised swimming training programmes to their users.The Swimbox licensing project offers the opportunity to integrate our training method into existing facilities, allowing sports facility managers to stand out from the competition and offer a cutting-edge service in the aquatics industry. Participants will have access to a full range of resources, including certified training programmes, ongoing technical support and comprehensive training materials.

In addition, sports facility managers will have the opportunity to use the Swimbox brand and benefit from our brand's reputation and experience in the swimming industry. This collaboration will enable them to offer their prospects high-quality and highly customised training programmes, thus helping to improve the overall user experience and promote greater engagement and loyalty to the facility.

With the Swimbox project, we want to open the door to a new era in swim training, giving sports facilities and pool operators the tools and resources they need to offer a cutting-edge service in the aquatic fitness industry. We are excited to partner with industry professionals to transform the water training experience and bring the benefits of our innovative approach to a wider audience.

The vanguard in Technique

A vanguard in water training, but not only, that is transforming the way teams, coaches and facilities themselves approach the aquatic experience at all levels.

The Future of Swimming

Swimbox is a complete ecosystem dedicated to the art and mechanics of swimming, evoking the title of the book of the same name published two years ago by author Alessandro Resch. Taking advantage of modern communication techniques and the latest developments in the field of training, Swimbox offers an unprecedented experience for those who want to push their limits in and out of the water. In fact, Swimbox is not only aimed at pool swimmers, but also at open water and triathletes, who will always start from pool swimming for their own exploits.

A Customised Approach

The beating heart of Swimbox is customisation. Each person is a unique individual with unique needs and goals, and our platform is designed to adapt to each individual challenge. From beginners to professional athletes, casual swimmers to water enthusiasts, we offer a customised approach that evolves with the prospect. Smart Coach, in fact, is the pivotal element that brings you closer to every part of Italy and the world, offering the opportunity to be in contact with a coach at any distance and at any time.

Collaboration and Innovation

In an increasingly connected world, collaboration is the key to success. With Swimbox Mastery, becoming part of a global community of swimming enthusiasts, coaches and industry experts is one of our must-haves. Our platform offers not only high-level training, but also a fertile ground for the exchange of ideas, collaboration and continuous innovation.

Where does it come from?

A springtime of movement. Even better if in the water. At the Forlì swimming pool, the first customised group water courses have started, transforming a dream that only seemed unrealisable into reality: no longer a simple swimming course in the pool, but an all-round service completely dedicated to wellbeing and personalised exercise.

The Forlì swimming pool, together with the new Swimbox brand, wants to promote an approach to water aimed at improving health, offering tailor-made and customised programmes to recover from injuries, alleviate joint pain, stimulate the metabolism, and maintain a healthy and strong physique even as time advances.

A wide variety of customised training paths will be available, within which it will be possible to follow programmes aimed at enhancing the slimming process, counteracting and resolving osteo-articular problems, as well as hindering age-related physical decline. "We are proud and satisfied with this new adventure," explained Alessandro and Andrea Resch, the two founders of Swimbox and the training method, who have always been committed to promoting and raising awareness of a more conscious practice of swimming and its profound connections with the theme of health.

"The opening of this new method, which is having its first extensive test at the Forlì swimming pool, demonstrates how investment in water exercise has beneficial effects at all social levels for our city and beyond: it means more health for the old and new generations, it means an approach and education to movement aimed at psychophysical well-being.

The formats

Each course is guided and led by aquatic trainers trained by the Swimbox system, through a hybrid digital and in-person training system, so that they are able to propose customised plans to fit each individual's needs as closely as possible, even within mini-groups.

The training format? There are no longer individual lessons, but 'personal group training' with up to ten people, always lasting 60 minutes.

Courses for adults, but not only: even the little ones will have programmes designed specifically for them, divided into age groups of 0-3, 4-5, 6-8 etc.

The scientific benefits of water training

Having always been focused on training for the competitive world in water, then moving on to personal training on land, with the arrival of the Aspire Custom fitness proposal, the Resch brothers with Swimbox are now committed to creating the union between the 'dryland' world (dry) and the water world to improve people's health in a targeted and effective manner. Beyond words, there are at least three scientific reasons for this:

- The resistance of water: water provides adequate resistance and improves muscle strength and raises the metabolism more easily (to burn fat as the primary source of energy), increasing the cardiac function of each individual's body. Obviously, during training, the relationship between strength-speed and resistance in the water must be modulated, and this is done through specific training protocols, designed for different prospects, paying great attention to the technical phases of the gesture, through careful use of the levers of one's body, hands, feet, in addition to the use of any specific didactic tools that are first taught and then exploited.

- Gravity: the lower mechanical load and weight reduction favour a targeted and customised exercise without any risk to the osteo-articular apparatus (provided that the biomechanics are correct. Which is a fundamental part and targeted attention that differs from normal courses, just as when training on the ground with a team of

personal trainers at your disposal. In water, a great deal of work can be done, not only technical-coordinative, but also perceptual, thanks to the specific body control information provided by the trainers.

- New discoveries: water provides a further opportunity to develop the ability to explore different types of movement. After all, aquatic motor patterns have little affinity with terrestrial ones. In water, the body experiences new sensations, which in combination with land-based exercises can bring great benefits. An all-round sensory experience.

Tutoring

In the end, the presence of a Tutor who follows the evolution of the path by always providing the point of view of an expert, both on the B2B and B2C side, who knows how to make the activity converge towards the expected goals. A communication bridge between users, trainer and manager.

A dedicated service to ensure the successful and effective implementation of our method at sports facilities and pool operators. Our team of experts provides continuous and customised support, ensuring that each facility is able to maximise the benefits of our innovative approach.

The Tutor, a key figure in our service, is an expert in the field of swimming and aquatic training. He/she will be responsible for following the evolution of the implementation pathway at the facility, providing an expert point of view and guiding the activity towards the expected goals. The Tutor will work closely with the facility staff, providing advice and practical support to ensure the long-term success of the project.

Thanks to the presence of the Tutor, sports facility managers and pool managers will be assured of having a trusted expert at their disposal to guide them throughout the implementation of the Swimbox method.
