In this episode, we have a swimmer who's stuck at 1:50/100m pace for his 400m and more swims. His 100m PB is 1:31/100m.
We cover why he needs to:
- Enter further in front of the head
- Increase his stroke rate
- Go deeper with his catch and pull
- Exit closer to the hip

What do you think, is there anything else this swimmer should do? Let me know in the comments

@legaldesigndo 5 лет назад

1) Push phase with palms facing back wall, fingers pointing down. To me it seems he releases the push too early. 2) Around minute 14:00 you can see a frontal view of the swimmer. He seems to be very wide, big shoulders, big muscles. And his arm extension is sort of too wide. His frontal drag is noticeable. He could reduce frontal drag by extending arms a bit more and close the gap between shoulders and neck. 3) a better extension, better push, improved rotation because of that push will help gliding. 4) with an increased stroke rate, being not a good kicker he might consider a 2 beat kick pattern that could also help reduce energy expenditure and close the gap between legs

Spot-on analysis. He also swims up hill a lot.

@markshaw5018 4 года назад

Quite a good swimmer. But would the suggestions you make greatly improve his time.. Eg could see him being able to do a 1:10

@katebeedot6964 Год назад

Seems to me that his kick is not as "straight leg" as it should be and that's why his knees are diverging. Just a thought. Thank you for your videos, helped me a lot in a very short time 😊

@mamteusztadeusz9826 5 лет назад

I can't get over how informative your videos are. Amazing job

@SuperOCHomes 5 лет назад

Your analysis gets me excited to jump into the pool and check my form. Your videos give me a new awareness in the water. I love refinement and this has lead me to my love of swimming. Thanks for your help.

@tolikb8701 5 лет назад

Please keep up these feedback Fridays... Really can't express how great your work is man!

@dapianoman20 5 лет назад

I want to say a HUGE thank you for all the vids you've posted! I only started swimming properly 4 weeks ago and have gone from doing 25m in 22 seconds down to a PB of 15 seconds this morning. I don't have a coach so it's pretty much completely thanks to your training tips! Thank you so much and please keep up the content. It's been a monumental help to me!

@RemekKinas 5 лет назад

Thank you for posting this video! I recognized myself on it. Absolutely fantastic analysis which helps me a lot!

@Wheel333 5 лет назад

It does look pretty good form. Legs look a little low with a bit too much bend in the knee. Thighs need to connect to core. I would do dry land core workout and some fin kick work, dolphin and flutter drills. I like all your other points. 🙏🐬🙏

@kerambeach 5 лет назад

Awesome video! That should be a series, 1.40, 1.30 etc... Many thanks

@EffortlessSwimming 5 лет назад

thank you!

@_muzzles 5 лет назад

Good idea! that would be cool to see the progressive technique differences between 1.50, 1.40 ... 1.20 etc.

@legaldesigndo 5 лет назад

Interesting how a 1:31 swimmer is stuck at 1:50/100 in a 400...I have had some of my swimmers there. Great video, as always!

@ccastans 5 лет назад

@@legaldesigndo hi! This is my case! It"s been helpful to think about rate! I will try to increase recovery speed too!

@qkayaman Год назад

Really useful videos, been learning a lot from them. It's amazing how technical everything is, and I find there's always a big discrepancy between what I think I'm doing (or what I want to do), and what I'm actually doing. I wish I could have even this pace! Currently hovering at 40 mins per 1.5 km swim.

@marvin674 5 лет назад

His form looks really good. I wonder what my technique looks like under the water. Great video! The most informative swim videos for me. Every week I find myself with a new aspect to focus on in training! Great stuff. Greetings from germany

@claudioghibaudo6248 5 лет назад

Thank you for this video. Very helpful analysis!

@LikeKoby Год назад

Around 6 minutes I went "oooohhh". The importance of the hand, elbow, and shoulder being aligned under the body in the pull position to crate speed is shown very well there.

@feimberg 2 года назад

This guy swim so much like me it's astonishing. I also have a slow stroke rate and very shallow catch and swim currently at 1:50. Trying to fix it, but always easier said than done

@leighschvartz 5 лет назад

Amazing video. So insightful!

@niallmor27 4 года назад

Extremely helpful. Thank you.

@phxrsx 5 лет назад

Looks like he isn't rotating quite enough?

@dave597 5 лет назад

Great analysis! I would agree from the side view, hand entry seems too early and a bit low. Also at 8:25 needs to engage the scapula more, with upper arm, shoulder tighter towards the chin/cheek area so the arm is above the shoulder (not crossing over but more in front of the head rather than to the side) if you compare left and right videos, the entry points is much wider on the left, it should be more like an arrow. what do you think?

@EffortlessSwimming 5 лет назад

Agreed could enter more aligned with shoulder

@marcelveldhuizen125 5 лет назад

Seems somebody secretly Made a video from me swimming all very recognizable 😉, thanks for your comments these are really valuable. If I ever need to travel to Australia I definitely would appreciate attending one of your swimming camps

@EffortlessSwimming 5 лет назад

Thanks for sending your video Marcel - send a new video in 2-3 months and we can do an updated one 👍

@marcelveldhuizen125 5 лет назад

Effortless Swimming , hahaha it was definitely not me but I have the exact same timing and suspect similar challenges. I will ask my daughter to make me one 🙂🙂🙂🙂

@eugeneclark5316 5 лет назад

Excellent video!

@phxrsx 5 лет назад

That early hand entry by the head seems to be slowing him down the most.

@devidia 5 лет назад

I'm actually kinda confused. It's generally told to have a high elbow catch, and the higher the more power you can create. But if you want to aim for the diamond shape you compromise a bit of the high elbow for this. So what is it basically? go for the high elbow or the diamond?

@MrTheoden003 5 лет назад

Don't you think he needs to work on the kick? That's very similar to where I am with my swimming and I blame part of it to my lack of kick.. Would love the feedback. Cheers.

@pacpac22 4 года назад

hi im a short man , my weakness was leg kicks now its improved took me nearly a month to coordinate my strokes with kicks I am using 2 kicks and 4 kicks for 100 m swim . however it's so hard to break my record 1.40 sec , is this because my arms and legs are short , or im not strong enough. btw im using correct front crawl technique well not 100% correct but im confident to say its not sloppy . do i need to be just more stronger swimmer and do weights?

Hello - trying to find the 5 core principles video.. Please can you post a link. Thanks.. I’m around 2:15 pace for 400m so trying to get sub 2:00..

@z2168231 5 лет назад

for a 10mins clip you have 4 advertisements, thats 2.5 mins apart, quite annoying.

@billymills383 5 лет назад

there are about 8 advertisements that i have seen. i'm trying to be nice because this information is very valuable and its FREE, but this constant interruption of ads is making not want to watch any more on this channel.

@theprofessional438 5 лет назад

I agree with everybody else, great video. There are tons of swimming channels lately and with great informativ Videos like that you are managing to put yourself in front. I wish you a lot of success with your channel and keep up the good job.

@gingerbadjie9670 5 лет назад

@chenliang5263 5 лет назад

Thank you for another great video. He swims just me (almost exactly) so all your suggested correction will definitely help!

@stephenwong2006 4 года назад

I think he needs to rotate his body a bit more on his right arm pull

@michaelnystrom9578 5 лет назад

I swam 100’s and 50’s today at 1:26 avg (25 yard pool) with a 29 avg stroke rate and high stroke rate of 36😫😩😳what’s the safest way to get more strokes going??

@ChillerSession 5 лет назад

Where did you get the strokerate data? I can’t believe you have a strokerate that low if 29 means half a stroke per second. :-)

any tip on how to film yourself with a phone underwater? do condoms work as a water protector?

@EffortlessSwimming 5 лет назад

Yes they are the best waterproof cover, they work 99.9% of time. It’s the time they don’t that it gets expensive

@fabian13333 5 лет назад

@@EffortlessSwimming Thank you, I feel like I have a better form and style than the guy in the video but still my 100 time is 2 min so I am wrong. If i have a great video I will send for your great analysis.Mutch respect
