I think of forming a vortex. Feeling that. On front of the leg.

I have a background in competitive swimming and worked as a beach lifeguard for several years. I'm currently 60 and compete in local sprint triathlons. My swim training consists of 2 sessions per week, session 1) 400Mx6 (tempo) and session 2) 200M warm up, 100Mx8 (75 race pace w/25M sprint finish) and 200 cool down, twice. For a total of 4800M per week. Currently my open water race pace is 1:18/100M. I can do a 1:07 100M sprint. With run and bike and strength training I just can't work in any more time for swim training. I'm looking to move up to the Olympic distance do you think I can do this and be competitive (in the swim) with my current training schedule?

The main issue is he doesn't have a proper pull, taking the arm out way too early. That messes up his timing, breathing, balance... I would just focus on that and the rest of the stuff will fix themselves.

We will also love to hear that he is swimming 2.10 and improoved to 2.00 after your school. As I'm sure most of the amateurs swim at around 1.50 - 2.10 at long range.

How fascinating! Do you think the feedback would change for someone swimming 1:50-2:10? If this wasn't a fit triathlete with a high stroke rate they'd probably swim like what you want to see with the same fundamental challenges: - body position (low hips, try correcting with head position) - entry (early and not set up for a good catch) - catch (dropped elbow) - finish (press back) The next time you watch a swimmer you can't relate to, focus on the fundamental skills Brenton is looking at, not the times or stroke rate. It'll help learn to coach yourself.

@@SeanPoulterok. here are the facts - he swims around 2.20. as he swims with full stops which is clearly seen even with a little speeding up made in the vid.

Hello, coach. I haven't replied for a long time and haven't sent a video to participate in the meeting for a long time. I am practicing on my own, but I have an important self-experience. If you don't have a good body position, head, waist, hips, heels, and raise your head when the body turns sideways, all good techniques will no longer have their advantages.

@fabianmathar354016 сағат бұрын
Just like you I mean no hate, but maybe your technique is just worst. I can't stress enought that this is not meant as hate. If you have the possibility have someone film you, so you can see for yourself how you swim. People myself included think their technique is better than it is because we think about being in a straight line, a high elbow, not looking to far ahead and all that good stuff and because we think about it we assume we are doing all these thinks but without seeing ourself it's hard to know if we are even close to getting it right

When the hand starts the leading edge vortex and the displacing stream tube of the arm generates the additive quanta of toroidal vortices, the stroke begins with a lateral stretching of the unified array of cycles to where the catch begins with the initiation of another leading edge upon the vortex shear and every finger dances out another vortex street ... or not.

If you are an amateur like me, I noticed that it is cool to look advice on KZread, BUT we must think ourselves. This technique with very long pull is for long distance. If you need sprint the right technique will be as a man does in this video, as there is no time in sprint for long pull and long glide. -Most of KZread advice are for long distance and low speed 😉. -Most of advice are from school of sports for teenagers with flexible shoulders and body😉. Stay healthy! Good luck!
