@MrBraindead101 2 года назад

Always loved 200m - the combination of speed and stamina makes it so difficult. Though now I'm focusing on getting a good time for 1500m. Before covid, managed to get to 21m15 but would like to do under 20m.

"Lean into the catch, put your body weight into the catch". Never heard this advise and it sounds great!!! I'm trying this first thing in the morning tomorrow. Thank you!!!

@backstroker3078 2 года назад

Excellent. It finally clicked today: proper rotation and just enough arm glide help reduce the front body resistance. Rotation is shoulders and hips in unison. This will really help me! I finally get it. Can’t wait for pool work tomorrow.

@SBoots29 2 года назад

Great video as always. Looking forward to move from the lake to a swimming pool soon.

@KeithHiew 2 года назад

Continuous learning from videos like this is an attitude. Many people pick up the stroke, can move in the pool, and they think it's already okay and stop learning, so you see many people swimming ugly and it doesn't change, especially with the freestyle.

In watching the Olympics and all the swim trials, I noticed a big difference in the breathing patterns between men and women. In all of the races over 50 meters, the men all breathed every other arm stroke and were swimming gallop style, which is a quick 1, 2, and then slight pause before next arm stroke cycle. The gallop style swimmers also tend to porpoise more rather than swim straight line. The women were more of a 2, 2, 3 arm stroke cycle. Katie Ledecky is one woman who swims gallop style. After the Olympics, one swim channel coach mentioned this fact and stated that women differ in how they process lactic acid and oxygen so it is possible for them to do a different breathing style. I do prefer shorter distances, but do swim a 3 mile set once a week. I do like the rush I get from sprint sets, 25, 50, and 100. Only have a standard pool to swim in, no metrics here... Standard work out is about 1800 or so yards kicking and 4000 swimming. My kick needs a lot of work.... Favorite stroke is the old over arm side stroke, which was dropped from competition, in favor of the much slower breast stroke in 1900 because breast stroke was more gentlemanly because there was less splashing. Only record for it was set in 1895 when a swimmer from England swam 100 yards in 1:02.5. Not faster than freestyle, but faster than breast, and back stroke, and maybe even with the fly.... Thanks for turning me on to Precision Hydration. I can now swim as long as I want with no cramp issues.

Thanks for another great vid GTN🤙🏽! It’s the little things that seem to get me still. Great tip Mark about finishing the stroke. Will work on that this week. I’m also continuing to work on rotation, so the description of the right position was a good reminder. Any tips on how to increase stroke count? Im able to hit over 2k meter now, but at a nice easy pace. Would like to begin increasing my speed. Any help is greatly appreciated.

@scottbarclay6 Год назад

I love the GTN videos. I think with all swimming strokes an important aspect is to try to breathe relaxed and to go at a pace that suits you best. I am still struggling with the front crawl breathing and am still swallowing in water. I just struggle to get the bow wave even when I try and pull through with the catch.

@elliegrimes7712 2 года назад

The last 3 points are what my swim coach is constantly telling me to do. “Use your lats! Rotation! And all the skills n drills!”

@michaelkahler240 Год назад

Thank you for your detailed description I have just one query to rotation. From my point of view it should be as less as possible in order to avoid wasting of speed and power, isn't it? Kind regards

@rayvelasco2059 2 года назад

Most Excellent ¿

@zzsql 8 месяцев назад

I'm doing a Half Iron in 2 1/2 weeks and I need to focus on my swim until then. The best advice I've seen in a while are how we should use our back muscles to pull down on the crawl stroke. (Freestyle is a race type btw.) Can you talk about how best to engage back muscles here?

@MrBraindead101 2 года назад

Excellent video! Not a thing in it I don't agree with. Glad you started with body position, the more streamlined, the less effort.

@roopaliredkarajgaonkar6760 4 месяца назад

Wonderful piece of advice,Sir But it so happens, primarily when it comes to a child of ten years old who is a beginner, the inhalation and exhalation of air turns out to he a big problem. And then comes the synchronization with the leg kick and hand strokes. Could you kindly put a video focussing on these aspects. Thank you.

@nightsfalling 2 года назад

I’m more aware of having a better technique in the pool, but it goes all over when I swim in the Ocean. I try to remember and follow it but is harder with the chop and the waves. Is there a way to transfer the training from the pool to the open water?

@TheAndrisyahriza Год назад

please video the hand after getting out of the water, how the hand position, how far to raise the hand and the angle, also how far to throw the hand etc, thank you

@xuanloc5759 2 года назад

Correct me if I am wrong - in the clip it looks like too much of an angle when you rotate and on your right side, guess about 90 degree. Should or should not you rotate that much? Many thanks.

@Csabeszification Год назад

Do I see it well that at the end of the breathing phase at the hand entry they dropped the other arm and in this case there the catch is missed?

@DublinDapper 2 года назад

@RickMartinYouTube 2 года назад

how you expel air during the swim and during the flip turns is very important it seems -

@connorcolleavy873 2 года назад

One for coaches corner, started swimming again after a number of years away from the pool. After I get out the pool I feel very faint and sick. I don’t eat much before swimming - just a quick snack bar for energy about an hour before. Am I just going too hard early or could it be something else? Like going from horizontal to vertical position too quickly?

@karinaniskanen1386 2 года назад

Cold water in the ear may mess with your sense of balance - I get dizzy from getting cold water in my ears so I always wear earplugs. Could it be the same for you?

@connorcolleavy873 2 года назад

@@karinaniskanen1386 it could be, never experienced it before when I used to swim. Might have to give ear buds a try! Thank you

@hencocronje2091 2 года назад

Ear plugs also did the trick for me👍🏻

@elliyeti73 2 года назад

If I hadn't swum for a long time I would have exactly the same problem. It was usually because I would dive in, swim hard for 2-3 laps and then stop. When I'd check my heart rate it was sky high 200+bpm. Take the first session and especially the first few laps easy. You don't want your heart rate to spike.

2:19 She is pulling her right arm with a straight arm rather than a bent, high elbow. This is not optimal arm position from which to generate propulsion.

@tureencahill Год назад

i do all this perfectly but still cant swim more than 20m....swimming is a black art

@karinaniskanen1386 2 года назад

I would have thought that rotation would also count as "basics"? 😳🤔

@markthrelfall3577 2 года назад

Yes and no. Obviously everyone has their own take on this, but I find that focussing on rotation too early can leave you confusing and messing up some of the core fundamentals. From experience I’ve found it much better to bring rotation in once some of the core movements have been ironed out. But yes, you are correct, it’s a very important part of the stroke

@karinaniskanen1386 2 года назад

@@markthrelfall3577 Thanks! I am rather new to freestyle and I feel that there are so many tecnical details to work on, so it is good to know which ones are most important to focus on

@samelgore7575 2 года назад

I think we should stop calling swimming effortless...to limit drag you need to maintain a streamline position through core activation (far from effortless)....Then forward propulsion which requires pushing large amounts of water backwards through paddle like action...I don't hear anybody calling rowing effortless...Swimming is an intense whole body activity that is very enjoyable if you can get it right.

@myb1161 Год назад

Very true. He probably just used the wrong word. I would have said "streamlined" instead of "effortless."

@irajtakbarzadeh8494 Год назад

Hi man what's up with the accent?

@temirlanotepbergenov4132 2 года назад

Good advices, but your swimming technique has some mistakes, your forward arm is at the low level, it should be straight horizontal for streamline position and smooth gliding.

Good, but there is no "right" or "wrong", there is "efficient" and "less efficient". Everything is relative. If a "pro Olympic champion see your swimming skills in this video, will find tons of defects, if someone who barely swim see your video, will find "fantastic"
