      I have been swimming 4 days a week in the past 3 weeks and I LOVE IT.
      Granted, I am bad at it because I am still learning, but I earned the lifeguards' and coaches' free advices just because they saw me trying so hard lol
      I will be attending lessons in March 🤞🏼.
      Swimming was always one of my wishes when I was a kid but my parents thought it wasn't necessary and it was too expensive. Now that I am an adult, I discovered how much I feel in my element when underwater, it's like I belong here!
      Best wishes for your progress and have fun.

I just joined my Y and am determined to get in shape, and swimming is a big part of the plan (my body can't take running, and walking isn't enough). My goal is to swim a continious freestyle stroke for my entire 50-minute lane time by my birthday in mid-June. I love the workout plans and will begin #2 today. My question: Can someone my age learn to execute a flip-turn effectively? Thanks - I will keep watching.

    Hey I just came across this video because I'm thinking about incorporating swimming into my fitness routine and I'm very new to it. My question is: because I'm naturally very skinny and I'm trying to gain muscle and mass from working out, will swing be a good addition and not hinder the gains in trying to make? Or will it end up burning too many calories and work against my muscle and size building goals?

    • @FaresKsebati
      @FaresKsebati  2 года назад +1

      Hi Deakon! Like all exercises, it definitely depends on what type of workout you're doing. If you're looking to build muscle, work on technique first and then power and speed later. There's a reason sprinters like Caeleb Dressel are so muscular! Hope this helps and happy swimming :)

    I'm having some trouble understanding this lol. I'm very much a casual swimmer, haven't really practiced any technique. Not since swim school when I was like 5 years old. (Although I really enjoyed swim school as a kid, and made an effort to manage all the challenges to get those little pin rewards, and I got them all.)
    But as an adult I didn't swim for many years until a few years ago, so I lost a lot of the skills I learned as a child. Now I can only do breast stroke, poorly and slowly. Barely well enough to not drown. So all this talk about technique is very confusing. But I can easily swim a kilometer which I do about once a week. It takes me about an hour to reach that distance. I don't need a lot of pauses, depending on how much effort I put in. If I'm just moving barely fast enough to stay floating, no rest is needed, and if I really put my back into it, I'll need to rest every 100 meters or so. So to keep things interesting I tend to just vary my intensity, basically.
    But lately I've been trying to improve my technique a little and found a way to be able to better line up my arm strokes with my leg strokes, helping me swim a bit faster. Although I still avoid having my head under water, because I have sensitive eyes and nose and the chlorine kinda stings there. Don't really know how to overcome that because my neck is suffering and my feet keep flopping down to the bottom of the pool, which is a bit annoying.
    Also I only swim once a week because that's kinda what I have time for, considering I also do muscle building 2-3 days a week at the gym, and then other life activities and chores get in the way as well. So, swimming is what I prefer for cardio, and staying healthy, as running around, biking, treadmills, etc, just aren't my thing. But, whenever my energy levels increase with healthier living habits (it's a work in progress) I'd definitely like to swim more often.
    I love swimming because it feels kinda like I'm flying, very free and lightweight sensation. It makes me feel one with my body. So it does wonders for my body image, despite what some others may say about the small, tight swim suits. I'm not even really aware of what my body looks like when I'm under the water, nor do I care.

      Great job taking the first step to beginning your workout! Maybe you may want to look at it from a different angle. Youre there to practice anyways and youre at the right place for it. Do you really want your workout lifestyle in the future to be dictated by two strangers in the present? What really matters is your dedication and effort and that is worth feeling proud about, enough to overshadow any potential embarrassment you might feel! All the best!
