2024-08-31 11:00:03

🏊🌊 #120: Go through the water on the fly, not high above it. Practice this sequence, one stroke with no breathing, one stroke with only goggles out, one stroke regular breath. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-08-26 11:00:03

🏊🌊 #119: Why not do a reverse catch up on freestyle. Instead of your hands catching up at the front, let them catch up at your hips. Make sure to have a good hip rotation and spend the same amount of time on both sides of your body. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-08-21 11:00:03

🏊🌊 #118: Double arm backstroke is the keyword this weekend. Keep your head and chest at the surface, don't let it fall under the water and pull arms straight back as if you were holding onto concrete blocks. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-08-06 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #115: Underwater swimming is a good way to feel your stroke. Try swimming a few meters under water and don't slack of on the recovery - work against the water, then pop up for a quick few meter sprint. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-08-01 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #114: Let's work on rhythm and constant arm motion during freestyle this weekend. Do not focus so much on the high elbow catch, instead focus on maintaining a constant cadence without decreasing speed. Each time you glide, your body slows down and it takes extra energy to pick up the speed again on the next stroke cycle. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-07-31 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #113: Improve your dolphin kick by exaggerating the wave. Get on your side with the bottom arm extended and top arm by your side. Dolphin kick from side to side as if you would like to kick the lane rope. The kick should involve your entire body, so get waving.

2024-07-26 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #112: One of the biggest hurdles we have when learning to swim is our flexibility. Forget about swimming this weekend and just give it a stretch and get in a habit of stretching those ankles, shoulders, lats and neck, so you can leverage your swimming body to full potential.

🏊🌊 #111: Training for triathlon might seem insane, but if you break it down to the basics, you just need to do something every day. Be it swimming or core workout or transition routine. What are you up to this weekend? Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-07-16 11:00:04

🏊🌊 #110: You should count your strokes when you swim and see if you can decrease the number of them per 25 or 50. There is a balance somewhere for you in terms of how many strokes you should take. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-07-11 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #109: Try this swimming progression swim with fists, then swim with hang loose sign, then move on to swimming with the Vulcan salute and finally with you normal opened hand. Have fun. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-07-01 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #107: Don't fight the water! Slow down and find the path of the least resistance. How about pressing your chest deeper in the water to lift those legs up. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-06-21 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #105: To practice your breaststroke kick, you can start on your back :). Lay on your back, arms along side of your body and do the breaststroke kick. Make sure that your knees stay below the surface pressing your hips up and your heels can even touch your fingertips when you bring them to your butt. #swimtip Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-06-16 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #104: Learning to breathe to both sides is one thing, but being able to maintain a straight body line while breathing every stroke is quite hard. Try it out. Breathe to one side and then right away to the next every so often and see if you can maintain a straight swim. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-06-11 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #103: Don't feel like you have to swim full butterfly all the time. Shorten the distance and do one arm swimming with proper body/arms/legs coordination. This is much better for you than swimming full butterfly. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-06-06 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #102: Watch your shadow on the bottom of the pool when you swim and look for deviations from a straight line (it will keep your eyes on the bottom and help you see the issues). Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-06-01 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #101: Swim a longer distance like 300-500 and in the middle of each lap do a 360 degree flip in a nice tucked ball and continue swimming. Make it very smooth, engaging your body, so you do not need to use your arms to continue swimming. The momentum should flip you over all the way. Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-05-31 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #100: Can't grasp the butterfly motion? The undulation movement comes out of your sternum and the rest of the body just follows, so next time you are in the pool, lay on your stomach, arms at your side, face into the water and only move your chest up and down and try to create a wave. Don't forcefully kick with your legs, let them follow in the wave. Keep the back of the head at the surface (if that is tough, you can move your head up and down to help with the wave, but eventually you want to get it stationary and only use the sternum).

2024-05-26 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #99: Change up your freestyle stroke a for a bit and if you swim with high elbows try straight arm swimming and if you swim with straight arms, try high elbow recovery. You'd be amazed how different it feels and you might find something you didn't know before. Furthermore, recognizing that something is off in your stroke or the ability to change your stroke is all part of swimming education and will make you a better swimmer in the long run.

2024-05-21 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #98: Don't try to struggle with full stroke butterfly. You will get more out of swimming one arm butterfly drills. So, don't feel like you are cheating or being lazy. One arm butterfly will allow you to focus on technique for longer period of time. Also, try breathing to side like in freestyle instead of forward during the one arm swimming :).

2024-05-16 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #97: Doing a 2 beat kick is not easy to master, so why not start from vertical position. Float vertically in the water with your head out, arms at your side and kick with one foot to rotate your body the other direction (of course you already know you have to use your opposite hip to drive your body :)) Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-05-11 11:00:03

🏊🌊 #96: Hips Hips Hips. It seems simple, but try to think of your freestyle swimming stroke starting with the hip roll. You have to drive your top hip down in order to have smooth transition from side to side. "Say no to swimming on your stomach and get skating from hip to hip". Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-05-06 11:00:03

🏊🌊 #95: ?While swimming in open water, you need to be able to sight (raise your head) to see whether you are swimming straight or not. When you do this, your legs drop which causes you to loose speed. Next time you sight forward, increase your kick speed for a slight bit during the time you are raising your head, this will keep your legs from sinking too much.

2024-05-01 11:00:03

🏊🌊 #94: Do not bring your high elbow freestyle approach from your pool to the open water. Open up your stroke a bit more by not bending your elbows above the water too much. Keep those arms more straight when going through the air and you will will feel much better rhythm and by swinging your straighter arm, you will have more momentum in it.

2024-04-26 11:00:03

🏊🌊 #93: Hips are an integral part of swimming. So use them. Each rotation you do in backstroke or freestyle starts with the hips. Get use to it by doing some vertical kicking while rotating hips from side to side after 6 kicks. Roll your hips :). Find more swim advice at https://www.360swim.com/blog 🌊 Keep on #swimming

2024-04-21 11:00:02

🏊🌊 #92: Composing your swim workouts isn't easy & even though there is a lot of workout samples floating around on the net adapting it to your ability is not much easier. Keep it simple. Pick one area of your stroke to focus on & just evolve your workout around it. Why not work on kicking this weekend with a good vertical kick set 10x30s ON / 30s OFF and keep the body nice & tall (no toilet sitting postures).

2024-04-16 11:00:03

🏊🌊 Swimming Tip #91: Get back to basics this weekend and challenge yourself to slow down and work on side balance drills and rotation drills, so basically you only need your legs :). Bring fins to make it more fun and so you can focus on body position and not trying to survive. Keep those hips at the surface and eyes on the bottom of the pool when not breathing.

2024-04-11 11:00:03

🏊🌊 #90: Let's do some resistance training this weekend. Grab a pair of shorts with at least one pocket and swim a set of 10 x 50 where you have 10meters/yards all out swim for every 25. The rest is easy. Work on rotating your arms as fast as possible while maintaining 6 beat kick (3 kicks for every one arm stroke).
