The Bottleneck To Good Technique

- If you don't coordinate your breathing and catch...your entire stroke can be impacted. That's why your breathing timing is the bottleneck to good technique for many swimmers we work with.

You give very good advice, and the pictures and red lines help explain things well!
Great video, I think this is a really important tip for intermediate swimmers who have got stuck with their technique!
Taehwan Park. What an amazing freestyle technique! Perfect.
A different cue from Brenton that worked better for me than “pull into your breath” is to start turning your head to the side as the contralateral hand enters the water. It’s more or less the same moment, and the former cue had more tending to over-rotate
Think of the lead arm catch as pulling the face back down into the water after the breath has been taken.
Thank you. Very clear explanation. Very practical videos. Very efective instructing using that red markers on the videos.⚘️
Brilliant! Thank you so much. Your videos make a big difference and are very helpful to people across the world . I wish, they could be translated in many languages.
I think this can be my silver bullet. I am a right-hand person. I've been struggling with bilateral swimming, especially left-side breathing. Also now I even doubt that I am doing my right side correctly. Looks like I have a slow recovery with the left. Thank you so much. Let me get back to you with any changes.
Funny thing (or not) is that I'm also right-handed but contrary to you I can't breathe to the right side.
@@inz_uzi Do you swim bilateral? If so, it is good. Yeah, honestly I've thought my right side is ok but now I need to check it carefully. I am gonna practice this and find out more. I think this will give me a solution. I hope you get yours as well.
@@sungmyonglee5280 As I wrote I can breathe only to the left side so I don't breathe bilaterally.
I doesn't bother me much. Bilateral breathing is overrated.
@@inz_uziI guess you are a fast swimmer. But I have an injury in the back. That is why I do bilateral swimming as my doctor's advice. I do not know which one is better. Just my idea is that if we can use both sides I think that is good. But we know it depends. I am just looking for a confy way to swim. Technically, I am not good enough to explain anything about swimming to you. Hopefully, you will make your breathing confy soon. Cheers~
I've found my flaw on the left side breathing while practicing along with your video and advice. It is not exactly checked numbers or time but roughly if my right-side breathing takes 1.0sec, the left side takes 1.2sec or so. What I mean is I tried to stay my mouth unnecessarily long out of the water while left side breathing. So moving the head back to water neutral position right after inhaling as quickly as possible I feel definitely more comfy than before with my kicking and arm stroking. There might be another flaw(s) in me but for now, I think I should get used to this through more practice. Thank You So Much!! Thank You "Effortless Swimming"
Great swimmer, great tips!
Pulling into the breath is definitely something I'm finding really helpful to lock in the breath time nice and early. Now to figure out why my lead arm is sinking!
Danke!
haha jokes on me, I freestyle laps with a snorkel. I am still learning form :) but this information is still helpful.
Very informative video. Thanks for it. I have noticed a rotation in the body in this video before forearm and hand finish its catch. Is it right?
I breath just like that, and I do notice this swimmer has the same asymmetries I have-- more roation on the breathing causing the catch following the breath to start a little rotate (not with the body flat
) .
I tend to lift my head at opposite side from stroke. Is this the wrong way and costing me time? Recently started swimming
What's the typical mistake? Head turning back into the water too early (before the catch), or too late?
Too late
My timing when I’m ‘sprinting’ (relative term I can’t sprint) is horrific. I don’t think it’s AS bad for anything longer
Any vídeos about butterfly ?
puedo conseguir este video en español? gracias
Hi... I was born with a club foot which was operated upon. So I have zero mobility in one ankle of mine which is stuck in a 90degree position. It atrophied my calf.
So that leaves me with one normal leg and one very weak leg which I can't bring to pointy-toe position because I can't move my ankle.
This non-symmetry leaves me with a skewed kick which takes me all around the place. I have no balance.
This leaves my feet sinking, and my lack of balance makes it extremely difficult to learn how to breathe in the freestyle position.
Can anyone please help? I'm supposed to swim daily to help relax my scoliosis affected spine. Yeah. I'm fked 😅
I wish he was breathing bilaterally. Honestly, not so many videos out there with bilateral coordination of kicks, breathing and catch/pull phases.
Do we kick down at the time of finish of catch?
I think the strong kick (on the same side as the catching arm) occurs just before or the same time as the catching arm starts. So it is strong kick, weak kick, weak kick, strong kick, no kick no kick, repeat(4 beat). Or strong kick, weak kick, weak kick, strong kick, weak kick, weak kick (6 beat), or strong kick, no kick, no kick, strong kick, no kick, no kick, for 2 beat kick. All using a 6 beat rhythm.
@@edwarding4355 In this video, swimmer is kicking at the finish of catch.
It looks to me he is kick at the start of the catch on the same side of the catch. He does kick at the end but these kicks are not that important or necessary.
Yo review the 4x200m freestyle from Tokyo 2020. Both male and female

This only matters if you want to breathe air.
