Yeah more practice and trust the process, blow air out of your mouth so no water goes in. You should aim to breath all of your air out before your face exits the water so you can just breath in when you lift your head out of the water. Let me know how you get on 👍👍

Hey, if I’m understanding correctly you are breathing every two strokes to your right? Which is absolutely fine, that’s how I teach my more advanced swimmers as it mimics the natural breathing rhythm of your body during exercise. I prefer to swim that way too. However, as always it’s about finding what works for you and your end goal 👍

@@AaquaticsUK No, i am actually breathing in every stoke. I hope that’s not incorrect. I have tried to breath every two strokes but somehow not being able to do so.

Ahh I see. I’d aim to see if you can try to stretch it to two strokes per breath. So right arm(breathe), left arm, right arm(breathe). Blowing out your air underwater. If you need some tips or exercises to practice this let me know 👍

@@AaquaticsUK yes please. That would be really helpful 🙏🏻🙏🏻

If you need to practice while standing, it won't be possible in deep water so get comfortable in the shallow end of a pool if you can touch your feet on the floor. If you can't do that, the rest your head against the wall or bar to practice floating before trying away from the side. I know it is difficult to practice this one by yourself, but remember - I am a heavy person and that small kickboard can keep me afloat. Breaking that mental barrier can be tricky, but with persistence you will get there. Let me know if you need any more help!

@@AaquaticsUK thanks for your inputs. 🙏🏻

The kickboard is your best friend. If you are sinking then we will have to look at your body position. Try pushing and gliding on your back from a wall with the float. Just kicking, no arms to start. Once you are comfortable with this you can begin your arms. The next step would be to repeat those steps but without the float. If you aren’t comfortable pushing off straight away, stationary floating can help you too. Let me know how you get on 👍

In the beginning, if you use the words 'in, out & together to time the kick and the arms', you will find that gets you close. Then, as you progress and start looking for speed and efficiency, the kick comes slightly after the pull initiates. We will be doing an intermediate series on this in the future. Let me know how you get on 👍

Work on the body position. Practice floating on your back with a kick board and then begin to kick your legs. Slowly progress to the arm with the kick board and then you can change to alternating arms still with the float. When you feel stable enough, try kicking on your back to get floating. Once comfortable introduce a single arm. Then onto both. Let me know how you get on 👍

@@AaquaticsUK thank you 🥰🥰

Are you able to blow air out of your nose. Practice standing in the water slowly lower your face a blow air out of your nose. If not try increasing the volume of air you are expelling out of your mouth, as if you were blowing out a candle. Let me know how you get on 👍

Thank you for the feedback and I’m glad it was useful. Let me know how you get on 👍

Let us know how it goes 😁

Hi Sharon, four is too long yes. Consider this, you wouldn’t run and hold your breath so why swim and hold your breath. Make sure you are blowing your air out underwater to control your breathing and you’ll find yourself a lot more relaxed and ready to take your breath in when you lift your head. 2 or 3 strokes per breath with front crawl. I prefer 2 when I’m really exercising but 3 is fine too (and some people prefer it). Try it out and see which is best for you, let me know how it goes 😁

@@AaquaticsUK thanks for reply !! I breathe out underwater .. also watched your video on breaststroke esp legs as I feel I’m not getting anywhere , I did try it with the kick board but held it in front of me and kept wavering from side to side but will try it where you suggested !! You make the videos easy to understand so I can go away and test it out Thankyou

Depends on how many area you do per breath. As I mentioned, I teach beginners to breathe every 3 arms. When you transition to a pool workout, breathing every two arms will speed you up and be more efficient (and you will breath to one side only). 3 is good, therefore you’ll breath to both sides. Hope that helps! 👍

Thank you very much! I’ll get one recorded for you and post it soon. Give me a few weeks 👍

That’s great to hear, thank you so much!

Thank you very much. Absolutely I will do a video for you in the near future. Give me a few weeks to get it recorded and out for you 👍

@@AaquaticsUK thanks, I'm sure you guys are going to help other people too 🙏🙏🙏

Sure, that is the trickiest part. I use those words to time the actions and get you moving. But when you drill down into the stroke you find that the legs snap and you use that snap the propel you forward as the arms pull to lift you out. So in more advanced technique the legs go before the arms by a very small amount. I will do a video for you soon to explain the exact timing - but if you need any exercises or help, get in touch with us by email and I can help you out!

Thank you very much! 😁

D'étonnant

So that is more of an advanced technique and yes can be useful in pool conditions. This is more of a broad explanation and something I teach beginners to be able to sight themselves in the pool. I will mention this advanced technique in our future advanced series 👍

Happy to help!

You are welcome 👍

What was the problem?

You're welcome!

You are very welcome 😁

Technically both. You start with the shoulder initiating the pull. The elbow bends and helps get your hand moving and the shoulder brings the power. I will do a video on high elbow pull - but that will be part of our swimming advanced series. Thanks 👍

@AaquaticsUK Thank you my friend

You're welcome 😊

You're welcome!

Thank you for the comment. Make sure you are fully exhaling underwater, and breathing in when you lift your head out of the water. Practice standing still, exhaling for three seconds underwater (blowing bubbles) and lift your head to breath. If you are still struggling let me know and I’ll make a video for you to explain how to practice 😁 good luck!!

​@@AaquaticsUK Yes please make a video, I'm still struggling, I feel like after I exhale fully in the water, and I turn to the side, I don't have enough time to breathe 😢

I will do! Give us a couple of weeks and I’ll get one out for you. But in the meantime, make sure you are extending your arm full and pulling all the way back. That will give you enough time to fully inhale and also benefit your stroke by pulling back more water behind. Let me know how you get on and follow us for your video 👍

Thank you for your kind reply, I did standing practice for breathing that time I can do easily, at swimming freestyle timing is a big problem still I am struggling please please make an easy breathing video sir, it will be useful for me

My big problem is exhaling under water

You are welcome!

Thank you very much!

Apologies. We had to have the fan running in the pool, we have tried our hardest to improve the audio in our newer videos! Thank you for the suggestion 👍
