The Weekly Freestyle

The Weekly Freestyle Podcast hits the “nervy 90s” with plenty to unpack, from behind-the-scenes chaos to big moments in the swimming world. There’s talk of listener involvement and a potential chance to join an upcoming relay, alongside recognition from the Royal Holloway Colors Ball where a Coach of the Year nomination, Freshman of the Year win, and a crest award capped off a strong night for the club.A huge focus is on Cam McEvoy’s 20.88 world record in the 50m freestyle, breaking down the explosive start, race execution, and the ultra low-volume, race-pace training approach shaking up sprint swimming. The discussion digs into whether this method is the future or if it only works off the back of years of high-volume training and elite physical attributes.The episode rounds out with key results from the Paris meet ahead of British Championships, plus exciting news of a potential Weekly Freestyle relay team entering competition. There’s even a call for a guest swimmer to join the squad, before wrapping up with race pace training chat and a fast, fun finish.

This week’s episode of The Weekly Freestyle dives into the creative mind of Lily Csonka, exploring how spontaneity shapes their content and why some of the best ideas come in the most unexpected moments. From filming on the fly to scrolling through TikTok for inspiration, Lily shares the reality of bringing ideas to life and the challenges of working in an environment where not everyone wants to be on camera. It is an honest look at creativity without structure, where not everything goes to plan but authenticity always wins.The conversation also uncovers the balance between shyness and self expression, as Lily opens up about finding content creation therapeutic despite moments of embarrassment. Treating filming like a job helps them push past self doubt, while the positive support from the community outweighs any negativity. Along the way, they share their favorite swimming venues across Europe, from the vibrant outdoor atmosphere of Canet-en-Roussillon to the iconic Duna Arena in Budapest, while even dropping a surprising hot take on the famous Foro Italico.From unforgettable moments poolside to behind the scenes stories with elite athletes, including encounters with David Popovici and the British relay squad featuring Duncan Scott, this episode blends humor, insight, and real life experiences in the swimming world. Lily also dives into their unique swim cap collection and shares some bold opinions on the sport, including why freestyle is their least favorite stroke.

In this episode, Alex Sutton sits down with Sam Lawman to dive into his unique journey through the world of life saving sport. Sam shares how he transitioned from standard pool swimming into a discipline that blends speed, endurance, and real world rescue skills, arguing that while it demands more technical ability, it also offers greater longevity in the water.The conversation explores Great Britain’s position on the global stage, highlighting the strong team culture shaped by the strategic format of World Championship competition. Sam also reflects on one of the defining moments of his career, the unforgettable relay victory at the 2022 World Championships.Beyond life saving, the episode takes a candid look at the current state of competitive pool swimming, including criticism of the restrictive Olympic qualification process for the 50 meter events. Sam also talks about building his presence outside the pool through his YouTube channel, Slaw Swims, and touches on his achievements in masters swimming.A must listen for swimmers, life saving athletes, and anyone interested in the evolution of aquatic sport.SLAW SWIMS: https://youtube.com/@slawswims?si=YrsKi2u5AChNUQ-Z

In this episode, Alex sits down with swimming content creator Lily Csonka, who joins the show while visiting her hometown of Győr, Hungary before returning to her new home just outside Barcelona. Lily shares the unexpected way she entered the swimming world through volunteering at the 2017 European Youth Olympic Festival in Győr. What began as a simple volunteer role quickly turned into a life-changing experience as she found herself surrounded by young athletes from across Europe and discovered a passion for the sport that would shape her career.Lily reflects on her path from volunteering at multiple international sporting events to trying traditional sports journalism through an internship at Hungarian television, an experience that ultimately pushed her to create her own platform instead. A frustrating volunteer role at the 2022 European Championships in Rome became the turning point, where she began sharing behind the scenes moments with swimmers on social media. The positive response from athletes and fans helped her realize there was space in the sport for more personal storytelling and authentic content.Now building a growing presence in swimming media, Lily focuses on highlighting athletes’ personalities and the human side of the sport, something she believes is missing from most traditional coverage. She discusses the importance of social media in helping swimming reach new audiences, the need for federations and clubs to embrace modern content, and her recent collaborations with European Aquatics. With hopes of attending more major meets including the Mare Nostrum Tour and upcoming European championships, Lily is helping bring a fresh and creative perspective to how swimming stories are told.To support the show visit our link Patreon link - https://patreon.com/TheWeeklyFreestyle?utm_medium=unknown&utm_source=join_link&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=copyLink

The Weekly Freestyle is back with Olympic, World and Commonwealth medalist Freya Anderson, joining us for a candid update from her new training base in Stirling. She shares how she’s settling in after the move from Bath, adjusting to dark Scottish winter mornings, and getting stuck into competitive in house race sessions as part of the high performance environment. Freya reflects on a recent long course 100 free where her sprint speed is still building, but her technical work on dive starts, underwaters and turns is already paying off. In conversation with host Alex Sutton, we explore why skills still decide races at the highest level and how marginal gains off the walls can make a medal winning difference.At the heart of this episode is a powerful and deeply personal discussion about Freya’s long journey to an endometriosis diagnosis. After years of symptoms, misdiagnosis and being placed on different contraceptives while searching for answers, she finally received confirmation through MRI results and underwent laparoscopic surgery shortly after the European Short Course Championships. Freya speaks openly about the physical and emotional toll, stepping away from training for a month to recover, and the frustration of knowing something was wrong but struggling to be heard. She emphasises how common the condition is, why debilitating pain should never be normalised, and why she feels a responsibility to use her platform to raise awareness and encourage others to advocate for themselves.We also look ahead to a packed season including Edinburgh International, Paris, Trials, the Commonwealth Games and the European Championships as Freya continues building back to full speed. Beyond performance, we celebrate her sharing the Aquatics GB Social Impact Award with Hector Pardoe and discuss her Fast and Female initiative, which is helping young girls build confidence, connection and a sense of belonging in sport. This is an episode about resilience, perspective and using your voice for something far bigger than results
