    I have been swimming quite regularly, most of my life, and usually swim between 1500 m and 2000 m/ session 2 to 3 times per week. I have been slowly implementing and practising your various tips on being more streamlined and efficient in the water. I am making great progress and am swimming, more relaxed, and with fewer strokes per 25 m length with the same effort (ie. a lower heart rate). It does take practice, but it does work.

    Effortlessly Swimming have taught me to swim and now help me improve. The best by far. The catch training and other courses are well worth the money if you want to swim better. I recommend Effortless Swimming to everyone who swims and wants to swim better.

    Your video is one of the best swimming videos on RUclips. It's wonderfully simple.
    Recently I have found that by timing of my "explosive exhalation" exactly, I can take advantage of the lungs automatically (almost explosively) inhaling air as a natural reaction to the exhale. Now I am getting more air and I am feeling less tense in the water. Before I was almost panicking for air especially while gliding after the push off from the wall. My whole experience has benefitted from this one small change to my breathing.

    I started lap swimming since Feb.. I watched other lap swimmers from time to time. I was amazed at how many of them can swim non stop without the right form. The posture is closed, half push and pull (arm motion not fully extended), slow mo, gallop like breathing….you name it I have seen it. Yet they swim lap after lap without stopping.
    My front crawl is textbook but I cannot swim more than 50m without a rest. I am new to swimming and swimming laps. Watching ppl swimming non stop in bad forms makes me depressed…..

    • @lennylan3223

      That's called garbage yardage. Better to concentrate on good form because, eventually, it gets embedded in muscle memory. Your good form will braille gradually pay off.

    I get the smoothest stroke from listening to rhythmic music which helps me keep a consistent tempo. Always load music I love because it makes swimming seamless! I eartily recommend getting an underwater audio product- makes all the difference!

    I just started swimming fairly regularly after not being in the pool for years. I can only do 50 yards at a time before being out of breath. My stroke is fairly good, I could swim 75 but it would be difficult. I used to be able to swim over a mile. I'm just going to make slow, incremental progress. I can cycle all day long, but that's a very different type of activity. Slow and steady build of fitness is my goal.

    • @amitpatilamit
      @amitpatilamit 2 месяца назад

      I have seen a lot of swimmers breathing on even strokes. Sprinters doing 2 and others doing 2-4 strokes per breath. I'm not sure it's a completely wrong way to do it. As long as it fits your natural breathing pattern and you are not losing your body balance, I think it should be fine.

    • @lennylan3223
      @lennylan3223 2 месяца назад

      If you're a novice, I would recommend breathing from both sides because bilateral breathing will force tou to roll to both sides. Accomplished, highly efficient swimmers don't need to breathe to both sides bc they already roll enough to both sides.

    After a few years of swimming, and watching countless swim videos, I got tired of getting tired, and ended up frustrated. Haven't swam in almost a year. You want my advice, join a masters group, and/or get one on one instruction. I haven't taken my own advice...yet. Not sure I have the energy for it anymore.

    • @lennylan3223
