Inside with Brett Hawke

Ben Proud is a World Champion sprinter from Great Britain. Last summer he placed 5th in the 50 Free at the Tokyo Olympics. At the 2016 Rio Games, he was 4th. He is a member of the Energy Standard swim team in the ISL, swimming for James Gibson.  Ben grew up in Malaysia the first 17 years of his life. He swam on the swim team but didn't take it seriously until meeting Francis Kiu, who changed everything for him. Coach Kiu is now the Head of Performance Swimming at British International School of Kuala Lumpur.   After seeing huge results, Ben moved back to England and swam under the tutelage of Jon Rudd at Plymouth Leander. Coach Rudd is now Ireland's National Performance Director. After Coach Rudd became Ireland's National Performance Director, he met up with James in Turkey.

"There was a section on breaststroke which I think if you coach, or if you know somebody that coaches, or if you know somebody that knows somebody that coaches, have them listen to Dave Salo for 15 minutes talk about breaststroke because I think there is just a lot of really, really good stuff that literally any coach can emulate in terms of just communicating about the stroke. He's got good words that he says about breaststroke and you can take those words and you can use them in your practice and it would probably help you." - Chris DeSantis on The Swim Brief Podcast This clip is from Episode 207 of INSIDE with BRETT HAWKE featuring Coach Dave Salo.
