Really appreciate these videos, hard to find solid info on SOAS and such. Hopefully gonna get in summer of 2023 right after I graduate college. Keep them videos coming 👌

Thanks, I know the feeling. There isn’t a ton of information out there. I’m just giving my first hand experience and insight for others. Stay tuned more to come. Much appreciated

Good tips. Hopefully you continue to document your journey through the pipeline.

[@evanjohnson4133]

Thanks and that’s the plan going forward

Good info, and really nice form! I was wondering if you have any advice on fighting the urge to breathe. I find that after 50m or so my lungs are dying for air and I can't maintain the streamline off the wall.

Thanks. Swimming is all about conditioning and practice. Swim x3 times a week, you will see the difference. it’s about breath control and rhythm/pattern

Being a corpsman, how come you weren’t attracted to DMT or SARC?

[@evanjohnson4133]

I came in as a reservist and it wasn’t in my contract. So I was assigned to hospitals and clinics. DMT is a C school and SARC is attached to a marine unit/command. I am in the process of going Active Duty as an Officer

@@evanjohnson4133 Gotcha. What about DMO?

[@evanjohnson4133]
