Excellent discussion!

Thanks for sharing! 💪

Good result at the sprint 💪👌

Love it! Thanks for sharing! More videos please 😊

11:40 👍👍👍👍👍

Vid was too long, where do you exactly talk about hips ? Thank you

Sucks about the DNF. Come back stronger 💪👌

The wind tunnel sounds amazing 👌

Wow that is a big improvement for one practice

Drive from the hips. I can add that to my technique. Thanks.

So then He’d Belgiums with 19 ID with Conti 5000 S could be beaten by a The same tire on a wider ID hoop will work better because of better rolling resistance. But at 260 lbs I can’t go as low as none Clyde’s. If I get 25 ID and 25 rubber (conti) . Will the width stay the same. Asking because I don’t know how much wider my Tarmac can take width wise. Where can I get some info to learn from..?

i would say he looks too down , front quadrant swimming is not present, crossing center line and crossing, breathing pattern could be sooner instead of every 4, also toes could be more pointed

very good analysis and drills... Did the swimmer improve his time alas?

That is, hands down, the best analysis of the potential gains/ improvements for any swimmer I've ever seen. You have a stunning mastery of stroke pathology and remedial action. Really useful. It might sound a bit antiquated but, thanks for posting. 👍

Good stuff!

Thank you, Steve! Very helpful.

This was helpful, thank you Steve

These videos are awesome!! Keep them comin :) Thank you!

Thank you!

Good lil vlog!

Considering all that is supposedly wrong with the swimmers technique, and he is still able to achieve a 1:30 per 100m tells me that most videos not just this one, do not emphasize, or cover the topic of the swimmer's natural ability, timing and synchronising of all parts of the body movement in executing freestyle. I think catch and pull technique are only beneficial once the position of head, hips, legs have been corrected, and breathing cycle has improved to maintain perpetual movement in the water. I am a beginner and swim 2:30 per 100m, but swimmers with really bad technique swim past me all the time

Good explanation. He carries a lot of tension in the recovery phase of the stroke. Arms are not relaxed. Thanks!

Merry Christmas, thank you for this content

With every single freestyle and back stroke video I have seen, the pulling arm initiates the body rotation, not the hips. This holds true for the kicking exercises where you are using body rotation as you kick, which I do a lot. Shoulders rotate independently from each other, hips are fused and rotate as one unit. Pulling arm initiates the rotation, hips follow along with down/front side kick, then recover arm finishes shoulder rotation. I do a lot of catch up swimming. Consider that one of the best freestyle exercises ever. Get full extension, and rotation, and 2 beat kick.

I was having a bit of difficulty understanding a lot of what you are saying here, mostly just not translating to me.... Could be me. His feet are terrible for position, being bent to 60 or 70 degrees rather than being straight/at 0 degrees or even less than 0. They create huge amounts of drag by pointing to the bottom of the pool, and no thrust on the down/front side kick. and almost nothing on the up side. This problem is common with runners who swim. Going pigeon toed can gain you an extra 20 or so degrees of dorsi flexion. As for his arm pull, for sure he is not getting as much distance per stroke as he should. I couldn't really tell, but it looks like on his arm pull his elbow is leading his hand, which means no vertical forearm, so a much less efficient arm pull because his arm is slipping through the water rather than grabbing it. He is crossing over with his right hand, but that is on the left side of the screen. This also leads to him snaking sideways through the water. Another point, as a coach from Speedo said, 'suck in your gut like you are trying to put your belly button on your spine. This greatly improves body position, keeping your legs higher. Every bit as critical as keeping your head down. In 'stretch' mode, with push off the wall just strong enough to get me to swim speed, I can get 10 or slightly less stroke cycles or 20 arm pulls per length of the pool. In full sprint, it is more like 22 to 24. I know one distance swimmer who can make it in 10 to 12 strokes, and he swims catch up style for his races. He is 'different'. I consider lengths where I minimum strokes per length to be an essential part of just about every practice. Interesting that when he does the catch up drill, he is not crossing over. His hand entry could be better. I never considered air bubbles on the back side of your arm to be a problem, but don't know. For sure he needs to work on that. Trying to remember if he has a good catch? The wrist needs to flex 20 or so degrees before the 'set up' where you start your power part of the pull, from 45 to 135 degrees.

You two make me laugh 😂. Happy turkey day 🦃!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Looking forward to this series! Here are my name recommendations: The Madison or Monday transition with Cindy and Steve The Monday Shift The Madison Freestyle or Mashup based on the request for random topics I would like to hear your thoughts on balance as I struggle with being the Debbie downer in my circle of peers when I want to focus on personal gains. This is a challenge especially in the holiday season. I also like your news letter topic that talked about fighting the holiday gain that came out last year. Last, I constantly fight my self to keep it simple and would be nice to hear your thoughts on gear vs. self improvement (pace, weight, etc).

Metaspeed Edge Heel drop 8mm vs Alphafly Heel drop is 4mm. Generally, smaller heel drop puts more strain on the achilles so would make sense that the Asics feels better.
