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 backstroke master Matt Grevers, who is currently on a training trip in Columbia, Missouri, where he’s able to swim and be coached by his brother, Andy, the head coach at the University of Missouri. Grevers talked to us about how he’s stayed motivated and fit during this quarantine period, and mental and physical hurdles he’s had to get over or still trying to clear.
Ultimately, Grevers does think taking time out of the water could be a good thing for older swimmers, as he thinks they don’t need the kind of intense conditioning to be back to race-ready form that younger swimmers may require. And as a fun tidbit, Grevers threw in the race that felt the best in his career, which may surprise you.

He does make a good point, however the show that Curzan put on this weekend could make a counter argument.
It is impossible to dislike this guy.
indisputable fact. If you don’t, you may be a robot designed specifically to for this purpose… and even then, it would be a challenge
….don’t call him the gentle giant…. just saying….
As much as I love my home state and the Mizzou facilities, “training trip to Columbia, Missouri” just doesn’t really evoke jealousy 😛
You’ve obviously never hit up Cafe Berlin… although to be fair, maybe not the best time to do that re: Global Pandemic

Oooh going to try that next time I’m up that way…menu looks really good. Would help if they put one in Jeff too to bring their good place to eat count up to 1.
I’ve not spent a lot of time in Jefferson City, but there was a really good barbecue joint there that I liked very much.
hahahahahaaa
One time I was in Jeff two days for work and because of time and proximity ate at Madisons four times. Some ppl look at me like I have two heads when I tell that story.
