How Did She Swim So FAST Only Using Legs!?

Спорт

Maggie utilized her unparalleled underwater dolphin kick to outpace her rivals, relying solely on the power of her legs. This video unravels the mystery of how staying submerged longer can turn the tide in competitive swimming, despite the seemingly insurmountable odds of trailing in 7th place at the wall. Witness the moment of disbelief as Maggie, without her glasses, awaits the revelation of her victory, a testament to the blend of physical prowess and mental fortitude. Join us as we explore the history, technique, and psychological strategies that have shaped the world of swimming, from the pioneers of underwater speed to Maggie's modern mastery. Discover why not everyone can harness the power of the depths and how Maggie's story challenges our perceptions of limitation and possibility in the quest for Olympic glory. Prepare to be inspired by a journey that transcends the bounds of the pool, proving that sometimes, the key to success is found beneath the surface.

    The back stroke guy lives here in Oregon, though I haven't met him. It was a revelation to me that there was less drag under the water than when swimming on top, and after thinking about it, it made sense. I do remember a video by Gary Hall Sr. where he used his 'velocimeter' to check several different swimmers doing the dolphin kick. One woman actually generated more thrust on her up/back side kick than on her down kick. It was the video where I learned to swim with toes pointed in slightly. When seeing people trying to prove underwater swimming is faster than surface swimming, they always show it in back stroke, like the one with you and your brother. Don't think I have seen one that compares it to swimming freestyle of the fly. One other point is the Lochte rule in fly where you have to do the dolphin kicks on tummy because they think there is some sort of advantage to dolphin kicks on your back. I have yet to hear any explanation that makes any sense to me, as to why there can be any mechanical advantage.

    Yes, underwater swimming without surfacing could be faster. Look at animal world, most creatures swim under water most of the time. Otter, for example, exhales before surfacing and only inhale shortly after surfacing to maximize underwater time. To them, swim fast could mean catching food or starve to death. Humans got a long way to learn on how to swim.

    Make sure your arm on the non breathing doesn't go down too fast when you breathe in. If you lower it to quickly you'll have less support from the water and you'll sink faster. Also, try overdoing the rotation for now. When turning your head out the water look at your armpit and then the ceiling.

    Berkoff got a slow start because they started weird back then, the horn off start was not always uniform so it led to false starts and you often slipped off the wall because nothing to push off of. Sure Suzuki had all the things you said but I think the reason he won was due to the start, he was lucky with his and David was not. Berkoff had gone faster in prelims. Also did you see Gretchen Walshes 50 free split on her relay? Those underwaters could give Maggie a run for sure!

    Races should be about the stroke and not how long they can stay underwater and do a dolphin kick, let them dive and have that 15 meter limit but after that they should go straight into the stroke from each wall and not be allowed to do dolphin kicks, which isn't the stroke in the event in which they are competing. That way one is using the stroke virtually all of the way in the swim and not for only approximately 35 meters for each 50 meter lap.

    From freediving videos I know that there is oxygen in the lungs. It's CO2 which makes you take breath. You can build CO2 tolerance to improve/extend usage of O2 from your lungs. Warning!!! After overbreathing you can clean too much CO2 from your body and then use all the O2 from your lungs before signal to breath. You can pass out (in the water) and die. Be carefull.
