What are your swimming targets? Let us know 🏊♂️
1:20 100
6:00 400
16:00 1000
Sub 60 sec 100 short course
Getting under 1:10 on 100 backstroke
sub 50 on the 100 freestyle
500 meters or 550 yards in sub 10:00 for ocean rescue.Unfortunately I'm currently at 13:45!
I can easily do a sub-2 for 100m in a kind of all out effort, but keeping those 2min pace for more than 300-400m max is where I fail at
I am almost at the point of breaking 2:00, I improved lately. When I swim by myself, in main part of the swim session I do some technical drills, quick 50m x4-x6 (time 0:53 - 0:56), and 1x-2x longer distances (400m-800m). The main thing for me was the streching: in front you reach as far as you can and try to catch the water as much as you can (this will also force the rotation), and always remember about correct leg movement (do not bend the knees too much, in down movement keep your feet streched to the back and fingers pointing inside, do not overkick). I swim 3x a week (looking to achieve 4x a week), mainly freestyle, but not only - sometimes I have a full session of other style. And basically that is it.
BTW: In Poland the swimming pools are open for you only if you have a licence of national swimming association or the one for triathlon, or if you train at a sport club or school. Aqua parks are all closed.
This video is perfectly timed! The pools opened again this week and I’ll definitely be chasing that 1:xx
I was at 1:55 down from 2:20. Then Covid hit and pools closed. Now I'm back at 2:10, trying to break through the 2min again. Besides consistent training, I had a guided swim training. Very insightful for me.
I will try one of those routines next time, thanks for the ideas!
Thanks team. Some great ideas there for us
If 2 minutes per 100m is the target, I would strongly recommend joining a club or otherwise getting some coaching. It's really hard to make the technical improvements needed without coaching.
Great content!
I never thought this topic would be relevant to me as I was way slower than 2 min ... Suddenly...it's now relevant 🤣
thank You, Heather! I'm definitely stuck at breaking the 2min mark
Wow, this video reminds me that i could barely swim 50m lanes without tiring out. Now i'm swimming 1:40/100m. Instead of watching videos like this (which are ok btw), i'd recommend you join a Masters group wherever you live.
Now I'm down to 1:28 for 100m full out but couldn't hold that pace only hold 1:40 for 400m maximum .
It seems the local Master group are just showing up writing the session on a board and swimming away. Never seen any coaches around. Don’t know if that’s normal or not. Really friendly guys though.
@@jm6734 Not my limited experience. All our Masters groups in Utah USA (there are several) have coaches that are on deck working with everyone in the water. If you're lucky enough to have a choice between Masters groups like we do, maybe find another? If not, a private coach session is very valuable for improving.
@@nathanmclain9027 Alright, that’s sounds great. Unfortunately few coaches around here and even the one the triathlon club hired is doing the 'pretty' pool strokes thing..which is kinda ridiculous. But we’ve got a fantastic new 50m pool. Once this pandemic is over I’ll travel for tri and OW camps. You’re right. Good coaching is invaluable.
In the first set you mention "Drills", but you done say which specific drills we should be doing?
really good video.
I average about 2:10/100m over a 1.5k swim (with some rests). I can probably swim a fast 100m in about 1:30-40. Think my problem now is endurance/swimming fitness and improving my leg kick
I used the advice in this video, and today broke my PB and did 100m in 1:52 :) Thanks GTN!
Well done!
Wow! It’s so amazing
I’ve only just managed to consistently dip below 2:00/100m and it felt like I’d won a race 😀 I’ll never be a swimmer but I will get faster👍
Congrats…It’s my goal too
For some reason i read breaking 2 for 200m and I was like Holy smokes GTN setting up the bar real high
I have access only to a 50 m pool will you please adjust these workout session for a 50 m pool as well?
Whats the difference from swim, paddle and pull? Is there a vid?
ex swimmer here ; technique, technique, technique; is how you do it! get the efficiency in your stroke then it will all fall into place; oh! and keep your fingers and thumbs together to grab as much of the water as possible.
Drills to include - using a pull buoy; do the below as separate drill sessions.
armpits, - drag your thumb up the side of your body until its in the armpit; helps get that elbow out the water.
Catch up - (with or without pull buoy) keep your arm stretched out until your other arm catches up don't start the next stroke until both hands touch out front - helps slow down the stroke and encourages the extension.
only focus on fixing one thing at a time.
now running that's my nemesis.
Thanks.
Re running: try Jeffing.
I can't seem to break the 2:15/100M. I copied all three of your workouts and will try them for the next few weeks. I belong to a swim club but I don't seem to have improved my swim time. I'll keep you posted on my progress if any.
What is a good stroke rate?
How does pace in a 25m pool with flip turns and the best technique you can afford compares to pace in an open water with some wave, people around, a buoy to look at and the additional buoyancy due to salt and wetsuit?
Great question.
Did you get the answer anywhere
or what was your experience?
so I weight 300 pounds, im 6'4 and im only 16. My time right now is 54 for 100 and Im trying to beat 50. Any tips for that? Other than losing the weight
Would this pace be achievable with a 2 beat kick or would you expect to need to be doing a 6 beat kick? Which beat do triathletes usually do over sprint and Olympic distances?
Depends. I can 2 beat basically the same speed I can 6 beat. My 100 pb is 1:12 off a push. Without ever timing one I imagine I could two beat like 1:16ish. But I mostly 2 beat so I’m used to it
I think it’s really interesting that I have an idea of a decent swim time, as I was always a swimmer, but I have no idea of decent times for bike and run! If 2 mins per 100m is a swim goal, what equivalents are there for bike and run (20k bike and 5k run for instance) I’m pretty sure I’m way off any run goal 🤣
I think that would be around 5' km running and 27.5 or 30 km/hr cycling.
I don't see 2 mins as a fast pace but rather a one that goes well with the effort needed on the other disciplines.
@@Blond0Sonic I don't see 2min per 100m fast either, so your assessment is great, thank you. Judging my performance by it, I'm doing OK! I'm mid 50's now, so I'll take those times! I'm up on the bike and current run times are slightly slower, but not by much! Swim on the other hand - smashing it! Lol!
I used to nail 1'10" back in the days. I think I'm quite far from 2' now so it's a bit sad. On the other hand, I know that it's doable and you're right, you just need to keep at it. Your videos are helping me getting back on track so thank you!
It mad swimming, the harder I try the slower I go
my usual time is 1:39 I go 49.50 first 50m and 49.50 second 50
wow. I'd be happy with a decent time like 2:20 or 2:15 per 100m...
👍👍
Second?
are we talking 2 min/100m on a distance swim or as a sprint? ...
third?
I get super tired after just 50m
first?
My technique is total crap. I know this. I find it incredibly difficult to fix issues that I can't really see.
I hear you bro, same with me!
😂 it’s funny how easy it is to spot crap technique in other swimmers, while knowing I’m pretty bad myself, wasting energy without speed.
I cant for the love of god break the 1:30m mark, im 5 seconds short and risking and entire year of training
None of these swimmers shown have a EVF
I will start by losing 60 pounds 🤪
If it takes 2 minutes to swim 100 meters, then you're not really swimming freestyle.
0:06 bad flipturn, too far from the wall
L bozo 100meters in 2:00min is so easy like 10 year olds on my team can do even without flipturns
Perhaps this is what most people want... I dunno, but IMHO your channel has this tiresome style of information overload instead of really focusing on one or two things so we can actually learn something. I’m back in school watching the teacher blabbering away as I’m slowly fazing out, but stay around for the nice swimming footage.Yes, this may sound harsh, but I dare say your infotainment is a wasted opportunity. E.g. The Lucy Charles swim video analysis was excellent, but generally I don’t expect to learn much at all clicking on your videos.
Whats 300m PULL ?
What the heck is 25 meters drill??
how the hell are you supposed to go faster than 2 minutes per 100m in training if you can't do 2-minutes per100m in the first place lol
