Is it better to exhale thru your mouth or nose?
Thank you so much Dan for this video! These are exactly the main points Mark touched on with me yesterday and it is very helpful that i can revisit those points through your videos! You guys are amazing and can’t thank you enough for all the help and guidance! 🙏 -Lireydis
Finally got to 4 strokes before I come up for air. Also finally learned to flip turn but that takes me back to 2 strokes so I can catch up on my breathing. Can’t sink to save my life which could be a good thing.
Amazing 🙏🙏
I love swimming even in high School ,on the swim team ..Great exercise 😊
Best coaching
Is it harder for tall people to float?
Thanks a lot, really helpful for me as a beginner
Well, no one makes them the way I think they should be made.... I don't really like the longer fins, mostly because when I see people using them at the pool (I swim over arm side stroke and am on my side most of the time, so I see everything) they tend to initiate the down kick with their ankles at about 30 degrees flexed and I call that "runner's foot". The only fin out there that is "ergonomically correct" are the Positive Drive Fins/PDFs from Finis. They have a little bit of fin on the big toe side, and more fin on the little toe side. This naturally turns your feet inward, which is the optimal position for max propulsion. What they don't have that I want is tiny holes in them so you can feel the water flowing between your toes as you kick to the front and back sides of your body. This is one of those "feedback" things I think is necessary to improve your power, and to make sure you are kicking down as well as up. I need to punch some small holes in my PDFs for that flow. I have heard that using fins can improve ankle flexibility. I guess this is true if your ankles are loose when you kick, the fin will just put a little pressure on your ankle. I do use a snorkel for most of my kicking laps. I make sure to vary cadence and amplitude on my laps, going faster and bigger kicks. It is important to have race pace laps as well. I do like a snorkel too.
Hey there! You bring up some excellent points about fins and technique. I agree that fins won't necessarily "fix" a kick if the technique is off at its core. For swimmers who initiate their kick incorrectly-especially if kicking from the ankle at a flexed 30 degrees-fins can reinforce poor habits. That's why it's essential to focus on learning a proper kicking motion before relying on fins. If the fins just become a shortcut or a way to mask inefficient kicking, the issue will definitely show once the fins come off. But it's not always about the fins themselves. The problem often stems from improper weight distribution in the water rather than the fins' design. Drills like single-leg kicking with a fin (while keeping the other leg bent at 90 degrees) are great for improving balance and helping swimmers correct their kicking technique. Also, the "runner's foot" or "runner's kick" you mention doesn't always come down to flexibility alone-it often has to do with ankle strength, too. Fins can help in this area, as they improve leg endurance and strengthen muscles, eventually leading to a more consistent and powerful kick. So, while technique comes first, fins can play a supportive role in building the right strength and endurance to maintain that technique over longer distances. Thanks for sharing your thoughts! 🤝
Gotta love swimming with fins ❤
Fins are definitely a game changer. I use them every time I swim 😅
Great video Dan! I’ll try the drills with fins next time I’m at the pool. Thanks!
I quit using a kick board years ago, and tool to using the snorkel. Then on another channel, the guy suggested using the kick board for the breathing stroke on the fly. The reasoning was that with the breathing stroke, you can't engage the core the same way you do on underwater or regular fly. To compensate for this, pretty much every fly swimmer lifts their heels slightly out of the water on the breathing stroke. That actually makes some sense. One other thing, feet and fins. The optimal foot position for dolphin and flutter kick is slightly toed in, and ankles rolled over. The propulsion in these 2 kicks comes from the side of the foot and not the toes. Our feet are very 3D, and not at all flat like frog feet. For fins, the only ergonomically correct fins that promote proper foot position are the Positive Drive Fins (PDFs) from Finis. The traditional frog feet make you point your toes out straight out behind you. The PDFs have a lot of fin on the little toe side, and very little fin on the big toe side. After figuring out that the gymnastic toe point didn't work, and going pigeon toed worked better, it cut my time in half for a length of the pool on my kicking laps. For those of us who have stiff ankles, the side benefit of going pigeon toed gives us another 10 to 20 degrees of toe point. I never could swim breast stroke without using a scissor kick. My feet will not stretch/point out to the sides at all for that kick...
At age 76 learning breaststroke, with both knees replacement… My left leg bends a little less than right one. And my moving forward is restricted a little. How can I solve this problem ?
Great tips sir. Thank you again

it is hard for me 😢
Helpful… Thank you 🎉😊
Thank you for the feedback! Don't forget to subscribe!
I tried for years to breathe every 3rd arm pull with freestyle. I could never get past 100 yards before I was gasping. I have to breathe on every other arm pull. I guess this is part of why I swim the gallop style of freestyle rather than the even beat freestyle. With backstroke, I have to breathe every arm pull. don't know why. Maybe I just burn a lot of O2.
It sounds like you’ve put in a lot of effort to find what works best for you! There’s no one right way to breathe, so it’s good that you’re adjusting to your own rhythm. Breathing every other stroke is actually common among many top swimmers, including open water pros like Gregorio Paltrinieri and Ana Marcela Cunha. It helps maintain a steady oxygen flow, especially over long distances. The gallop style is also widely used by swimmers with a dominant side, so you’re not alone in using it! For backstroke, try focusing on longer, slower exhales to see if it helps you feel more relaxed. You’re doing great-keep it up and don't overthink it! Let me know if you need any more help.
As far as having a dominant side, I swim one length breathing on one side, and the next length breathing on the other side. I am more bilateral than most people, in part because of playing a lot of handball as a kid and doing competition Hacky Sack/footbag (the generic term) which requires a lot of equal use of both sides of the body. I have tried longer and slower strokes with back stroke, and also tried a faster arm cycle, but both end up needing the breath on every stroke. Just the way I burn oxygen I think.
i finally learned how to chill like that today! I wish I’ve learned it sooner.
When I learned proper positioning and relaxation when floating I could float with ease Before that I was trying to hard and actually thought I could not float 😆
I hear you! It’s amazing how much easier floating gets when you relax and let the water do the work. So glad you found that feeling in the water!
Great video loaded with tips!
Glad you enjoyed it! Don't forget to subscribe!
1:35 ummm 💀💀
A true teacher created this video. Thank you
Thank you for the feedback! Glad you found the video useful.
It's extremely easy to float, however it can be challenging if you don't know how.
For sure! Proper body position is the key to floating.
If I did this down at my local pool the lifeguards would probably jump in thinking I'm drowning
How is this done and for how long will you stay afloat?
My breaststroke is suck 😢 how can I improve my frog kick I use Kickboard can you help me
So well explained Dan! State of mind is critical and water will mirror your mind. I tried it, more calmer more easier, more frantic more tougher.
Glad you tried it out! You're absolutely right-staying calm can make all the difference in the water. Keep practicing with that mindset, and you’ll see how effortless treading water will become for you!
I fell into a water when I was a child too and I never went to pool. I am 31. And trying to learn to swim but although I put myself so loose and dont stress, the fear of drowning all of sudden comes back out of nowhere ans I cant do what I was just able to do a second ago in pool. I cant stand in pool without touching the edge. I am scared that I will loose balance and will fall down and drown in the pool. When practicing kicking too, I think if I am doing correct or not and I feel down and I cant kick correctly any more. My mood affect my performance in water again. I am having hard tom to let my hands go and kick. I am learning to swim in 1.5meters pool and my height is 165cm. So the water is till my neck, I wonder if this is too deep for beginner with so much fear of water like me.
I would say the sweet spot would be the water up to your chest. Every time you get a panic attack, refer to this video and remember this reaction is the way your brain protects you. Spend more time with your feet stying on the floor and face in the water. Feet off the floor, face in the water holding the wall. The key is getting to the point where you experience anxiety but can control it. Let me tell you that you are amazing and trying to confront your fear instead of avoiding it. Greetings to Egypt for NYC. PS I miss Red Sea
I gave up on this video at 1.22 don’t waste any more time.
I got your attention for 88! Success 🎉🥳
Thank you for uploading. It's a very important topic for my aquaphobia, because during my childhood I was injuried when I was swimming in a river in Africa.
Thanks for sharing your story, and I am truly sorry to hear what happened to you, especially as a kid. Aquaphobia is tough, but I am glad to hear you're starting to face it! Sometimes, taking it one step at a time truly helps. You got this, and I'm here if you need any help!
I'm fear of being drowned in the water because I was injuried in the river during my childhood. So, I'm unable to swim today.
I fell in sea water when I was a child. Since then I am afraid of water. Now I enrolled in a swimming class and slowly overcoming fear of water. Now I am able to dive in to 4.5 feet pool without fear.
how long did it take you until you felt comfortable in the water?
@@danswimnyc 15 hrs. But haven't been to the deep end. The pool I am going doesn't have a deep end. So once I am very comfortable in free style in shallow water may be in next 2 months. I am planning to try deep end with a coach. Things like sculling, egg beat kick.
Thank you for sharing
