| Description | Ben Lecomte’s historic 5,500-mile swim from Japan to San Francisco is a feat that can’t be missed. Ben's core mission is to raise awareness for ocean health issues. The Swim investigates key topics such as pollution and plastics as he swims closer to the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, discovers potential consequences from climate change, and examines how factors like ocean currents can impact his progress along the way. Seeker explains every aspect of our world through a lens of science, inspiring a new generation of curious minds who want to know how today’s discoveries in science, math, engineering and technology are impacting our lives, and shaping our future. Our stories parse meaning from the noise in a world of rapidly changing information. In this episode, using ultrasound and a prototype waterproof monitor, medics and researchers watch Ben Lecomte's heart closely. Can examining his EKG waves in ocean waves help us prevent fatal heart disease? |

Injury Prevention Exercises for Swimmers
After 15 years of long distance training, Chloe Sutton never had any injuries. She believes that it is because she began this shoulder strengthening routine that she practiced after every workout. Shoulder injuries are extremely common in swimmers due to the repetitive nature of the sport. Fatiguing in the muscles that support the shoulder and scapula lead to injury and pain which is often referred to as "swimmer's shoulder". Add these exercises to the end of your workout to strengthen the supporting muscles in your shoulders so that you can keep swimming for a long and healthy career!
