Learn to breath then it's eaay.
I have been trying for years on and off. Front crawl I just cant get into, blowing out me arse after few lengths so couple of breast stroke, then crawl etc. Then get bored after 20 lengths and think fk it. U really wish I could like it!Any tips!? My lungs feel shot after a few lengths
How often do you breath? I'm no expert, but if you slow your stroke down and just focus on breathing, then start focusing on the stroke.Any tips!? My lungs feel shot after a few lengths
Have a search for breathing drills to find some that suit you. Effortless Swimming do some really good videos, this is a decent one:Contemplating a triathlon. First swim today in years. Breathing is all over the place. My general fitness is decent as I run and cycle a lot. Got some serious ours in the pool ahead of me to get this up to speed

Bilateral breathing? That's the ideal as it keeps you balanced and straight and keeps you comfortable breathing on either side, which is important for triathletes I guess, so they can see competitors either side of them. But if you find you need an extra breath at certain points you could take a breath after 2 then go back to 3, or do 2-3-2-3 etc.My daughter's swimming teach has them swimming on the third arm stroke to the opposite side of the arm that is out of the water. Seems to work well

Also your local pools should do technique improvement sessions.I do bilateral breathing (every 3) but only to stop any inbalances (tightness down one side etc) which would lead to more injuries , ive no idea what is best breathing pattern for out and out swimmers though

I don't care about competitors, sighting is the most important.Bilateral breathing? That's the ideal as it keeps you balanced and straight and keeps you comfortable breathing on either side, which is important for triathletes I guess, so they can see competitors either side of them.

You not fancy it mate ?Good tri club in Fulham if near there
No mate my hammy is fecked .... if i ever get over it i may go down the tri route, running only hasn't really worked out for me , too many injuriesNa, due to stop running again soon to do another rehab for strength. Hard enough to get the time to go for a run these days nevermind tri training. Dont reslly fancy it. You back like?
Maybe faster but concentrates more effort in your core and upper body imho.SMB swimmers .. often see people using those floats between their legs , it is solely to get technique of arms/upperbody right ? does it also make you go faster due to less hip rotation eventhough not kicking legs ?
I felt I become a bit over reliant on mine and seemed to be blowing out of my arse when not using it.SMB swimmers .. often see people using those floats between their legs , it is solely to get technique of arms/upperbody right ? does it also make you go faster due to less hip rotation eventhough not kicking legs ?
