I was on a one day course yesterday, when a coach did video analysys after our swimming, and basically of all of us has done all of those mistakes, especially overrotating when breathing, wrong stroke timing and lack of efficient grabbing of water. It's so important to know what happens under water and how to fix it following coach advice. I couldn't agree with his statement that flexibility of your shoulder has no influence on your stroke. You show something completely different and that's a point. Because of many year spent in the gym, I have so rigid shoulder and that's why I can not use high elbow movement. It makes make shoulders hurt. It's time to start extending range of movement in my joints.
@siskatrainingsystems it was a course conducted stationary in my city. I would like to put all of the advice into practice, but it's seems pretty tough. Nevertheless, I really enjoy your videos. Regards
Bro I can’t wait to do this stuff next session! Something just clicked in my head. Good clear instruction, love your obvious passion and enthusiasm. Keep it up!
If you lack the shoulder mobility to do a proper streamline with your upper arms behind your ears (like many of us 40+), which is best: arms & body flat to the surface but hands not together, flat body & arms /hands together but arms bent, or arms straight & hands together but arms not totally flat (eg upper arms next to cheeks)? Love your vids 👍👍
Well, the sculling was on your news letter you sent out this week, and I have never been able to find any benefits from it. I guess if I was a breast stroke swimmer, it could have some benefits. That being said, some take to swimming like a duck to water. Some have great difficulty in getting the "feel" of the water. With my over arm side stroke, the low side arm does a breast stroke recover pull, so pretty much identical to the "dog paddle" exercise. As for body position/posture, and snaking through the water, biggest cause is not having proper or good core engagement. Not rigid like a board, but more like a coiled spring.
Usually when you are taking about the pace you can hold per 100 you are speaking about threshold pace …so something you could hold anywhere from 1-2k depending on your ability
Nice. Here's a snake when become tired. I will watch for sneaking. For the first 100-300m i'm sometimes at 1:20/100m... for the last 2.5km (of 4 or 5) my speed drops dramatically to 2:20-2:50/100m.
What is one of the most common/regular uses and purposes of salt ? It’s typically found on tables in restaurants and homes to add to food so that the flavor of the food becomes enhanced…that’s what sculling does to your feel for the water that is my point …thanks for watching
@ when you are trying to convey some probably very useful info, the music is basically the same volume as your voice and it’s really heard to tease them apart and it is distracting.

Ahh Robo , if we went for a swim together I’d show you what sculling could do for you …thanks for following as always 💪👊
What model are the goggles at 2:40? I need that kind of nose bridge.
Blueseventy Contour Goggles …wish you all the best 👊
I love skulling!!
Right on! 😎🤝👊
When people quote a 1:30/100m pace…how many unbroken meters are they assuming for that pace?
Usually when you are taking about the pace you can hold per 100 you are speaking about threshold pace …so something you could hold anywhere from 1-2k depending on your ability
You dont have to maximum extand thru your shoulder. The extand comes from the lates
Of course lats are involved as well, but you can’t have a bent shoulder in the least bit
Too bad you cannot give more than 1 thumb up. Thanks a lot !
I appreciate it thank you!

That’s quite a dramatic drop, but way to work hard..keep going!

Like salt is to food. .. safe to assume you've never been diagnosed with hypertension?

dude get rid of the music, I can barely hear what you are saying.
Thanks for the feedback, which part in particular was it the most annoying for you ? Or just the whole video??
@ when you are trying to convey some probably very useful info, the music is basically the same volume as your voice and it’s really heard to tease them apart and it is distracting.
Great stuff , i listened to your advice in my latest video check it out , after the intro no music
