On SwimSwam Podcast, we’re giving you an in-depth listen at all things swimming. Host Coleman Hodges welcomes guests and guest co-hosts alike to get perspective on our ever-changing swimming universe and break down the past, present, and future of aquatic sports.
We sat down with Dave Salo, the man at the helm of Southern California since 2007 and the guy who everyone wants to swim with because, let’s face it, he makes a boring sport fun.
Salo talks about his development through swim, starting with his own swimming days and how he didn’t really like it because he just went back and forth and didn’t get a whole lot out of that. Once he started coaching, he started to do things his own way. You take a desire for fun combined with a scientific approach (PhD from USC) and what you get is the Salo style.

Does he address the P.E.D. use?
When will you guys interview Gary Hall Sr?
One of the very best as well – that could be so nice
or Greg Troy
Another great podcast. Dave Salo is a great ambassador for the sport of swimming and not a bad coach either! LOL Very interesting and entertaining.
Great podcast! His private talks during the ASCA Clinics are great as well!
Sprint Salo’s beard is magnificent.
…..agreed!
Best Quarantine hairstyle I’ve seen so far
Dude, you grew your hair out to legendary status and then cut it off?!?!
Yes , that was a weird move from Coleman lol
I was lucky enough to visit his lecture in my hometown in Ukraine in 2012 (or 2013). This is great when world class coaches travel so far to share their experience.
Ukraine?! Wow… that is awesome. I was excited that he agreed to talk to us via zoom call, and I still felt like I learned so much
Yes! It was a 2 day event – theory and practice in the pool. Too bad 90% of our coaches didn’t understand English and the translator wasn’t great as well 🤪
lol
This is great! Dr. Salo is one of the best.
