@RickMartinYouTube 4 года назад

Thanks for remembering us. Other topics: breathing, stroke mechanics, good cross training for swimmers to make them better, proper kick, how to avoid burnout, etc. My biggest hurdle as a novice has been breathing properly and relaxing, as having endurance. I'm good for about 4-6 laps and have to stop. Goal is to swim not necessarily fast, but for a longer duration.

@RickMartinYouTube 4 года назад

@@jimmyb3845 thanks - I play a lot of different sports and find I'm over analytical on technique - so I think you're right once I relax and just allow the stroke to happen, it'll get easier. Thanks for the comment.

@ASMRyouVEGANyet 3 года назад

Try yoga for swimmers

@vestibulitis 3 года назад

Think of having a long body and slow down your stroke so you glide as long as possible - 3 secs or so - before the next stroke. You’ll have your hand and arm and shoulder in a long reach in front of you which will encourage body rotation in the torso, hips, legs, and feet. And, a cheat tip, the less you kick, the longer you’ll be able to go. Kicking is more tiring than getting smooth, long, slow pulls during your stroke.

@krislozano0703 3 года назад

As of now i complete one full go without problem but approaching the end i feel my lung capacity just won't let me.

I know NOTHING about pool etiquette etc I just long to look like those gorgeous am swimmers that are gliding thru their lanes as a splash and kick like a 5 yr old ! Rotfl !
