My swimming has improved so much!
I won some 1-2-1 coaching with Rebecca and immediately signed up to the app. It works well and sync.s with your watch so you can follow the plan in the pool. It counts the lengths and measures rest periods so it works really well for me. The plan works towards any events you have and I’m so pleased I’m almost considering not going to my Tri club training!!!
I have now done the two events I was training for, the Bantham Swoosh and the Serpentine Super Six (miles). I felt ready for both and both were completed very successfully! Thank you!

Excellent
I’ve been using this app for about 2 months now and have been really pleased with it. I would have said I was a fairly good swimmer before, I’ve done a few long distance events, but didn’t really feel like I was progressing or getting any faster/more efficient. I’ve signed up to swim Windermere end to end 2027 and I think fear probably prompted me to get some help!! First thing I did was log the event, and it’s created a training plan that is geared 100% to me, and has made swimming 11 miles this time next year seem possible. I’m already swimming with an improved technique and therefore more efficient and faster. The sessions come straight through to my Apple Watch so I don’t event have to think about what I’m doing when I get to the pool as it tells me for each interval. The training videos are excellent and to make it better, any conversations with the coach are with an actual person so encouragement and queries are answered without the frustration of dealing with AI.

Integrations
Thankfully they offer a free trial so I didn’t have to pay and had enough time to realise how incredibly poor this app is. They claim to offer syncs to garmin so the workout is on your watch. This sync doesn’t work. I am. not sure whether they think people are taking their phone to the poolside to read the set . If not instead you are forced to manually copy down the set which basically leaves you paying a premium for a fancy ui.

Best swimming training
I used this app ahead of my two marathon swims this summer and it was perfect. Lots of good technique support, good distance building and the wee videos are really helpful. It syncs well with my Garmin watch and you can even send in videos for personalised analysis! If you want ultimate swim training without paying for a personal Coach this is it

Swim training
I have only started free style swimming proper since April. I found a great swim coach ( I tried many!) who I now have just dropped to using twice a month because eventually I want my technique to get to a near enough perfect state. I started using Catch a month ago because I wanted to improve on stamina and having scripted sets makes pool swims more enjoyable. This combined with physicality of a in person coach keeps me on track and enables necessary tweaks in my technique. I am so impressed with the ease of use of the app and I genuinely feel like I am becoming a much stronger swimmer. Of course this stuff takes a long time , but it’s so good to feel like I am improving in myself and my swim coach sees a big difference. I have my first mile swim event this weekend and then catch is going to take me to my first 2 mile swim in September. Excellent app and thank you !
