    Recently back in the pool after a 15 year lay off (now in my 60s) and gave this technique a go after watching your videos. 4th time back in the pool and did 2k and only stopped because the session was over. It really does feel a very efficient way to swim longer distances. Thank you.

    Great to see the catch-pull so clearly and in many different water types. I see how you keep your arm out and balanced until the catch. Pull doesn’t start until it reaches parallel with the catch arm. Nice demonstration. Thank you!

    Does the pull initiate the twist of the torso, followed by the kick - or is it the kick that initiates the torso twist, followed by the pull?

    @kevinabalo Рік тому +1

    Similar to the stroke I use, but better finely tuned regarding the kick sequence. I learned to swim by copying the best swimmers in the pool ... . now I'm copying you!
    But don't worry, not many people are fully able to copy.

    You do a wonderful demonstration, Adam, but just tell me: do you only turn to 90 degrees sideways when catching a breath - and on the non-breathing sides - turn just to about 45 degrees? On another video you stress the always "still head" so turning sideways would apply to every stroke.

    Kind of ballet dancer in water. Beautiful stroke, fast, efficient, consistent and seems someone attached in the sea nature. Thanks for this experience and lesson Walker. I'll train this style in my openwater swimming indeed. One question: if we need more speed may I keep this style little fast or could change to flat ? Thanks you so much man!

    • @adamwalker32
      @adamwalker32  3 роки тому +8

      No completely different mechanics. Feet turn to take fromt arm in to the water. No spearing of front arm or driving. Only pulling on your side, therefore pulling less body mass, maximising more momentum and glide. Front arm is deeper, recovery arm wider. More things but gives you an idea.

      Hi Karla, I'm not sure if this will motivate you or not, I learned swimming at age of 46, alone without going to any class. I was have to do after operation in my back. now I can swim 100 M in less than 2 minutes, effortless swimming. One of key factors is I never stopped practicing, watching, reading about freestyle swimming.

Head position, but not in this video, cause he swimming in open water, and he has to raise his head slightly more. Kicking, you can see he extends his leg and do single kick but strong synchronising with gliding.
      All the above allowed you to swim faster, longer, with less effort, and this is the difference, for people like me who are not competitive swimmer.
