Based on the video description, here are five key areas to improve for better front crawl swimming: Head Position: Current Issue: Looking forward causes the hips and chest to drop, increasing drag. Improvement: Look down to keep the head in a neutral position. This helps keep the hips higher, reduces drag, and minimizes neck and shoulder strain. Rotation: Current Issue: Insufficient rotation leads to more drag and less efficient propulsion. Improvement: Rotate from side to side up to 90 degrees with balance. This reduces body drag, enhances glide, and helps maintain a streamlined position. Arm Recovery: Current Issue: High arm recovery can strain the shoulders and waste energy. Improvement: Use a low, semi-circle arm recovery to reduce shoulder strain and conserve energy. This keeps the shoulder elevated naturally and avoids excessive lifting. Foot Flick: Current Issue: Bending the knee too much during the kick can delay the stroke and reduce effectiveness. Improvement: Keep the legs straight with a slight foot flick to press down into the water. Use a two-beat kick to aid rotation and maintain stroke length. Catch: Current Issue: High arm entry and push can cause inefficient body position and shoulder strain. Improvement: Aim for a lower arm entry (40-45 degrees) to maintain a streamlined body position and avoid pushing water down. This reduces strain on the shoulders and improves catch efficiency. These adjustments will help improve efficiency, reduce drag, and make your swimming more effective.
Just watching you swim I see the harmony between the water and you. It is relaxing to watch. You could easily create a meditation video of you swimming for an hour and with a bit of background music.
Everything you say here Adam simply makes sense, but watching you actually demonstrate each part just clarifies it all. I love watching your easy, lazy, but efficient stroke and that great glide you get each time.
Just started open water swimming and your videos are helping a lot, currently concentrating on breathing and rotation, aim is to progress to the two beat kick once I get my head around the left arm/left leg right arm/right leg bit as my coordination isn't the best!
Saw this video yesterday, and today I tried a couple of your tips. Thinking about kicking, as a tool to keep my body horizontal, actually helped me a lot and made me more efficient. And more rotation... I have also a bigger frame. Those two, made my stroke more efficient, as I always do 10-10,5 strokes per 25m, today I did 9 every lap. I’m pumped!
That’s great if you want to follow my system to do the stroke you can subscribe here to learn it. I talk you through the process here: vimeo.com/ondemand/oceanwalkertechnique
Glad to see all of these tips because I've been doing all of these things, except I just taught myself lol. The foot flick thing everyone calls me crazy for, but it's so efficient!
That’s great you should checkout my online coaching it takes you through the stroke with drills and body position etc. vimeo.com/ondemand/oceanwalkertechnique
This video is a the perfect guide to properly swimming for me. I listen to it all day and especially before I swim.. it’s very logical and effective..thank you Adam..
At 71 years old, I'm a latecomer to freestyle. I'm not very tall (5'7'') and manage 22 strokes per length. I can comfortably swim 1.5 miles though the speed is not great. I think the lack of speed is from poor timing but from watching this video, probably lack of rotation as well. I have mastered the two beat kick and feel balanced in the water and keep my head horizontal (i.e. facing the bottom of the pool). I am slowly getting faster and can outlast much younger swimmers so I'm fairly happy. Thanks for the video.
Ohhhhhh Voooooowww Sir !!! Pleased and satisfied to watch a thorough video Tutorial on the very basic stuffs of swimming.!! Nice Clear video picturisation, Amazing Voice, Crystal Clear Recording, Justified Reasoning behind Every Drill / movement,........ what else a beginner should need ?!! Nothing...!!! This is enough to put / set you in the right track / position to learn Swimming perfectly..!!! Thank you soooooo much Adam Sir for availing this lovely video tutorial at no cost. Lord Swaminarayan bless you and your family 💕💕🙏🙏👍👌 and your Team so much.
I am a beginner and by far this is the most elegant style of swimming I've seen. The way you are easing through the water is a treat to the eyes. Camera work is incredible too. How are you managing with a 90 degree turn to breathe amidst the waves?
Man - the front crawl is so technical. Im a biker, have tried swimming several times over the years but always get beat by not being able to breath. This is a really good video - really useful. Some of the stuff like the foot flick - have no idea, but will def try rotating more. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers for the info , I Have just started open water swimming at 61 , I enter local races but always seem to have the geezer in the canoe paddling behind me as I am the tail end charlie . However I will take heed of your advice , I will improve from my 50 minute 2km time , Many Thanks
The thing with body rotation, and how it reduces drag, to me anyway, is that your top side shoulder comes out of the water which means you have less frontal surface area to drag through the water. I like how you link the arm pull to the kick on the same side. Every one does this, even if they don't realize it. So many focus on the recovery arm and linking that to the kick on the opposite side. Hips actually serve as a universal type joint transferring energy from one end of the body to the other. Land based sports go from the feet up through the hips, to the shoulders, and out the fingers/hands. In the water, you have nothing to anchor on with your feet, and the action in the water is from the pull. Pulling arm starts the body rotation, hips follow, then recover arm completes the shoulder rotation. Shoulders rotate independently from each other. The pulling arm is your anchor spot for swimming....
I think that the feet lead the rolling in these videos before the arm pulls. I think this is initiated before the boost from the kick and this is achieved by a change in balance brought about by moving the feet to the side. Same as if you stretch out arms and feet clamped and then role in the water.
@@stephenperry5972 Well, you need underwater video to see what is going on. Without exception, the pulling arm starts/initiates the shoulder rotation, slightly before the hips and the kick on the same side starts. this is easier to see in slow motion. I commented about this to Gary Hall Sr. from the Race Club (gold medal Olympian), and his response was some thing like 'even with the windmill stroke (this is how the men swim the 50 meter sprint) that shoulder does roll a fraction of a second before the hips do.' The kicking foot is 'spring loaded' but doesn't fire until just after the pulling arm starts. Funny thing about rotation, the shoulders rotate independently from each other, but the hips are fused bone, and rotate at the same side. Pulling arm starts the rotation, hips follow, and then the recover arm completes the shoulder rotation.
Feet go first which drops the hips before the shoulders to create the core power. My shoulder and arm drops as a result of the feet roll, then a kick followed by a pull as I feel transition on to my side.
another great vid, everything you say REALLY works. Love my swimming but cardio-compromised big time, so efficiency is everything. All I’m doing is managing what breath I have (+ I flip-turn as well, keeping t pressure on monitoring what’s going on within)… kudos to you for clarifying it all.
Thank you!. I went from barely surviving a triathlon swimming breast stroke. To doing an Ironman in one month from this video combined with advice on every 3 stroke breathing ':)
A low head position is great but I used to train in a crowded public pool. I had to look forward to avoid colliding with other swimmers. It was a real problem
hi there - great instruction but I am unsure on point 5 what you mean when you say the arm should be lower and at 45 degrees ? Can you clarify please. Thanks
Very helpful video. Your explanations are easy to understand and follow. I've already worked on some things in the pool this morning, and am back to rewatch it for better understanding. Thank you!
All good stuff! But could you compress it into one quarter the length? You’ll keep a lot more viewers that way, and more people will get the sense of what you are saying
I swim almost everyday for a mile or so from May till October in the sea, freestyle mostly and breathstoke when I need to rest a bit, non stop swim, I need like 30 to 45 mins for a mile, depends on currents and waves, also from time to time I need to look forward cuz of jellyfish, now I added paddles and fins, 100m open water around 2min pace, but with fins and paddles 2 15 2 20, also depends cuz of currents etc. I'm 31. Is this considered a good time? God bless, love your videos
After a two year hiatus due to back injury back in the pool and soon ocean. Left the 6 beat behind for the two kick. This is very helpful. I need to rotate more which i can do. Just one question. Is the pull with my right hand simultaneous with the right foot flick or is it kick before pull. I’m pretty much at the same time. Thanks. This is great.
great tips, i tried some of these techniques in the lake today, i felt really good. The lower arm entry was especially good for me b/c ive always felt weak on the catch. I found it challenging to keep my head down while working that shoulder rotation. more to work on! anyway +1 subscriber
I am 70 years old swam for years freestyle, swim with head down, hip rotation. I lane swim in my local pool in the UK but started getting out of breath after 250 meters.
Yes on my online coaching system you can practice my drills to develop the stroke. Here is the link to subscribe to sll videos: vimeo.com/ondemand/oceanwalkertechnique
It's hard to keep looking down when swimming in the sea during a race, as you need to see what direction you ae going in. I swim bettering the pool, than open water.
It would be very helpful to give context re the swim distance for your teaching. I race 1k and 1mile races in Hawaii. I never compete in 3k or 5k. Every distance is a different creature. Rotation clarification would be helpful too. I listened and read others re all this most of it messed my technique up. IE shoulder rotation long distance is about 70 degrees, hips 40 degrees, legs 10 degrees. The shorter distances, faster paces rotation is reduced and 2 beat kick replaced w 4 and 6 beat kicks. Over rotation often leads to arms crossing over probably the worst mistake. Anyways like your videos but for me I find watching Olympic swimmers at different lengths of racing slowed down helps best if competitive.
buenas tardes MR ADAM buen video dando las pautas para una mejor eficiencia en el mar solo una consulta como formar un semicirculo con el brazo de recuperacion ,cuando ya se termino la fase acuatica del brazo osea el tiron para avanzar , lo que emerge del agua primero es el codo del brazo con el antebrazo relajado como tu cuerpo en ese momento esta inclinado casi 90 grados al moverlo para adelante antes de clavarlo donde se formaria el semicirculo ? le agradeceria su respuesta para mejorar mi tecnica
El brazo debe estar relativamente alejado del cuerpo, a una distancia ancha, es decir, no encima. Esa es una consecuencia del "brazo bajo" que menciona Adam. El semicírculo se forma allí: a una distancia lateral del cuerpo, y lo dibuja sobre todo el codo, a resultas del movimiento del hombro, claro está. En este vídeo se explica con gran detalle la relación entre rolido y recobro, con una demostración en tierra y vídeos de nadadores profesionales: ruclips.net/video/Y8epxPuNJ58/видео.html En general, es un gran canal para técnica de natación, con énfasis en una técnica de crol eficiente, para larga distancia, como la de Adam
@@FranciscoTornay francisco buenos dias 1ro agradecerte por la explicaciin a mi pregunta ya tengo una idea mas clara a esta tecnica solo como aclaracion ese semicirculo q lo forma el codo esa linea imaginaria q forma un ( semicirculo)se formaria mirandolo al nadador de arriba hacia abajo (vista de planta) no seria en una vista de costado (vista lateral) una vez mas gracias y tambien por el link

I don't exactly understand what you mean by rotation 90 to 90 degrees at 2:44. Do you mean +45 to -45, or +90 to -90? Can anyone tell me the correct degrees of rotation and what the disadvantages are for over-rotation? Thank you!
90 degree angle basically on your side with balance. Hip bone underneath you with head still. Checkout Vimeo if you want to learn the system. vimeo.com/ondemand/oceanwalkertechnique
I'm just learning to swim, and naturally my head was down, but I started looking up to look at where I was going I thought that would help you be faster.

I love swimming. I start at 5, I already have 51 and I still love water. I was very good in 100 butterfly and 100 freestyle.
The most complete sport in the world. Simply beautiful. When I'm in the water I feel like I'm in another dimension...hard to explain

@@joeekaps5840 Just a superhuman. 1 stroke is both arms
@autokar123 So how is a stroke counted. Each pull or every 2 pulls?
@@joeekaps5840yep. Full motion of one arm is a stroke. Catch, pull, recovery

When you say max. 90 deg rotation, are we talking 90 from centre each way, or 45 deg each way (giving 90 deg total)?
90 degrees rotation from the enter. Basically side to side
Looks great, but how do you navigate? What about spotting? No lines on the bottom of the sea.
You sight separately 👍
Hi Adam What do you think about Florian Wellbrocks stroke vs Ferry wertmans stroke they do the 4 beat kick in competition to get that extra speed
Great Video, thanks
great tips, i tried some of these techniques in the lake today, i felt really good. The lower arm entry was especially good for me b/c ive always felt weak on the catch. I found it challenging to keep my head down while working that shoulder rotation. more to work on! anyway +1 subscriber
Good stuff!

I am 70 years old swam for years freestyle, swim with head down, hip rotation. I lane swim in my local pool in the UK but started getting out of breath after 250 meters.
Sorry can you bullet the 5 tips?
I think i missed the third
Thanks that helped a lot.
You're welcome!
Many coaches recommend 45 degree rotation. You recommend 90. Can you opine on this discrepancy?
Hello while taking breath water going into my ear. I am not getting proper form. What should I do?
Have you tried ear plugs they really help
Can u please send me a link which is related to breathing
Do you have any drills to do to be like yours?

Thanks very much
You are fast, Sir!
It looks like he’s going 20 mph
😂
The flow is 20mph, he‘s actually swimming backwards!
Where I can watch your stroke and kick both underwater and above water at the vision of water level.
You can watch it here: vimeo.com/ondemand/oceanwalkertechnique
When you say 90 ° rotation you mean 45° by each side as I see in the video ?
Side to side. I roll to the flat position and kick my hip bone underneath followed by a pull to maximise the momentum and glide
It's hard to keep looking down when swimming in the sea during a race, as you need to see what direction you ae going in. I swim bettering the pool, than open water.
You can sight separately 👍
It would be very helpful to give context re the swim distance for your teaching. I race 1k and 1mile races in Hawaii. I never compete in 3k or 5k. Every distance is a different creature. Rotation clarification would be helpful too. I listened and read others re all this most of it messed my technique up. IE shoulder rotation long distance is about 70 degrees, hips 40 degrees, legs 10 degrees. The shorter distances, faster paces rotation is reduced and 2 beat kick replaced w 4 and 6 beat kicks. Over rotation often leads to arms crossing over probably the worst mistake. Anyways like your videos but for me I find watching Olympic swimmers at different lengths of racing slowed down helps best if competitive.
