Hi, may I humbly suggest some catch up and pseudo (wrist line trigger, catch up) drills for the swim, to see what happens. The hand on exit looks a bit "floppy", suggesting that you are not finishing the drive phase, leading to the arms having to hurry the recovery and the hips not properly driving the stroke (chicken and egg!). I can't see the trigger point to release the lead hand from the side. You are quite tall so the front quadrant style of swimming may suit you. Some under water shots would be nice, but dependent on not getting anybody else in shot and the pool giving permission. Enjoy the training! Jon
Hey Jon, you may absolutely suggest swimming advice! Thank you for that, I’ll look into what you said and give it a shot. I’ll try find a quiet time at the pool for underwater shots too. Thanks again!
@@FinchFitness awesome! Thanks for coming back to me. I’m just getting into triathlon now myself so have been enjoying it so far with the goal of one day having a go at an Ironman. Keep up the great content 👍🏻
hey, why dont you use the same headphones for running? i am thinking about buying some for swimming and running cause the ones i have now are always falling out while running... 🤣
Hey Mattia! I actually just used my swimming headphones on a run this morning! They worked well. I use the Shokz OpenSwim. The only downside about using them is they don’t have Bluetooth. So you can only listen to audio files you have downloaded onto the device.
@@dsd6538 Yeah, it’s the old fashioned way! No Spotify or Audible. You need to download the MP3 files you want to put onto the device. Google can help you acquire these files 😛 Shokz do have Bluetooth headphones in this style, but they’re not waterproof.

Enjoying the series so far. Keep it up. Have you got a target time for your A race? Or perhaps a few possible taregts!
Thank you Graeme!
At this stage I'd really like to get sub 11, with sub 12 as a backup target!
I'd also like to beat my mates also competing ahaha

Great video again really enjoying the series! Keep it up! Can I ask what watch you use for your runs?
Thanks Dave!
I used a Garmin 945 for a couple of years, but very recently was gifted a Fenix 7X Pro for my 30th!

@@FinchFitness ok, yeah that's kinda 2005 style with no bluetooth xD
@@FinchFitnessI honestly don't get it, how you put music or audio books on this thing 🤔 Spotify is not compatible I guess. Can you explain? 😄

@@FinchFitness thank you 👍 I am now also thinking about such headphones as they probably take the monotony out of the swim
