• I ANALYSE MY OWN STROKE -~-
This is Feedback Friday #4. For this video, we will be talking about breathing. Breathing is the #1 cause of errors in freestyle. When you breathe late in freestyle it creates a flow on effect that results in less power, more drag, and overall slower swimming. This video will help you understand how to breathe in freestyle with the correct timing. If you like to see more of these videos, let us know in the comment box.

This is probably the best swim advice I’ve gotten in 5 years. “...as the opposite hand enters” has made the difference! Now I can get down the lane faster and not swallowing water.
great
Haven’t worried much about technique until the past 6 months; coming across effortless swimming. Of the feedback Fridays I’ve found this has been the hardest to relies and change. Comments like windmilling and “nothing out in front” caused me to think am I doing just that. After a month of trying to change technique, the only way has been to focus on holding the glide on the forward hand, recovering the back hand to meet the forward hand before committing to the pull. In the mean time I’m sure all else has gone to hell but think that can be recovered once this becomes automatic. Great swimming videos and will be doing one of your freestyle clinics soon.
By doing this your swim will become so fluid. I don't do it automatically at moment but I clearly see the difference. Thanks a lot !
This is excellent, going through step by step, with illustrations and slow down. Finally I understand what steps I need to do to get the timing for breathing right. Thanks a lot.
My favourite watch to date. This has really clarified exactly when to initiate the breath, and is already making a positive difference to my stroke. Thankyou.
Your videos are just amazing. I started swimming during the pandemic (ocean) and your videos keep me going. Without them I am not sure I would still be swimming. Thank you so much for all your brilliant breakdowns and insights!
First video I've seen that actually gives a real break down of how to break in water
2:55 "It's very hard to get much power when your head is to the side".
Spot on and perfect timing to say that! Just look at that other person in the next line ;)
Great video. I will take this advice and use it on my next swim. Sidenote- inspiring to see how fast the really good swimmer is moving compared to the slower one in next lane. Awesome!
She's got a good technique, love it
Thanks very much, this video on timing is really helpful.
really great videos! They are helping me so much with my swimming, I have alreadty increased my stroke speed and length times significantly since subbing to your channel, but it would be awesome if you did some more stuff with breast stroke :P
FINALLY !!!!! The answer!!!!!
1 of your best Brenton !!
I have been doing this wrong for 40 year or so. Now trying to finally get this right :)
Awesome! Thanks! Though at first that lovely Aussie accent made "late" sound like "light" !
Just learnt basic freestyle swimming from one month with drills but missing to properly to breath while freestyle (sometimes running out of breath)...❤ Will accomplish this sooner.
Thank you! I’m into slow & long distance swimming. So the right time to initiate the head rotate to breath is when the hand enters the water and the latest time to complete the head movement back to look down would be when the other hand enters the water?
When practicing at 1.5sec/stroke with 2-beat kick and every 4-stroke breath, I was taught to keep front quadrant style. Came across with your video when searching for how to breath smoothly. But at 1:40 of this video, the swimmer position is a bit different from what I am learning now. "Why You Can't Swim Front Quadrant Freestyle
" at 10:08 is more of what I am aiming at. But the breathing timing and sequence are still difficult. Any difference if swimming in front quadrant? Felt like not enough oxygen even when doing 2-stroke breath at the end of 50m lap. Tried breathing out through nose (and a bit mouth to clear airway) before the head turn but still felt gasping for more air when breathing in. Appreciate for all the amazing contents your shared on UA-cam.
Started using the tempo trainer to time my two beat kick rather focusing on my stroke rate...found it much easier to keep my pace when focusing on the legs vs the arms. the arms just flowed naturally in time to my leg kick. Kinda weird.
yeah...its that way
great comments coach !
Legend!
Thanks so much . I will be a real champ soon ;)))))
me too
That’s exactly what I need, I always sink and hale in little air when breathing in freestyle, now I get the reasons and solution and will put it into practice this afternoon at pool.
what is reasons because i sink as well
I'm definitely one of those "late breathers". I find it hard to breathe just when my hand reaches the water without swallowing water.
Amazing.
yeah
I can't kick independently with my arm movements. During my right arm stroke, I kick left leg and vice versa. This is causing many issues like the drag, less speed, and awkward body posture. Can you suggest how can I kick independently?
me too
Try excercise with a kick-board. That way only your legs are moving, but I guess you already fixed it after 11 months :)
very nice.
Where can you submit footage for technique review?

Idk😏
I'm a newbie but ain't you meant to keep your stretched out arm floating on the water to assist with gliding?also only paddle with one arm at anytime? And ain't you meat to keep your elbows as high as possible when paddling to produce more efficient andpowerfull stroke? Like I say I'm a newbie so any advice would be appreciated..
Gliding = loss of forward momentum. Your hand should catch straight away. As soon as your hand enters start to drop the hand/keep the elbow high and pull straight backwards by engaging the big lat muscles.
When exactly do hips drop a bit? Also her head seems high all the time isn't that how u strain neck which is my problem.
her whole torso is high, that's because she knows how to swim. Look at the olimpic races, the swimmers have half of their body off the water.
I am confused about the message at the 1:40 mark..
We see a right kick during left hand catch followed by left kick during left hand pull
In ua-cam.com/video/wvVZZy-8fv4/v-deo.html
is is said that we want a left kick during left hand catch follow by a right kick ruing left pull.
So its opposite?
Whats right?
(Also the hip is proclaimed going down here, wheres in the Smooth 1:10 clip it is going up?)
Bellissimo
Question, i thought you should hold your air as long as you can,only blow out when you ready to take another breath. Having air in your lungs allows you swim further-not to sink. Correct me if I am wrong. Thansk
If you don't breath out, your lungs take all oxygen and transfer it into CO2, your lungs will be full of CO2 and there wont be any place for oxygen, when you come up, you'll start gasping for air. lungs always has air it will collapse if it doesnt, having more air help you float easier, you still can float with low amount of air but you'll sink little bit and you'll need strong and faster catch and kick.
@@ahcryz2543 Thanks very much, this makes sense now. I should practice more.
try it effective!
Yea. I have seen most of world class swimmers doing the same.
It's very very easy if swimming teachers actually tell you all this instead of showing you how they do it.
i have a question , when u should breathe in free ?
like every 2 stroke .. every right catch ?
or every 4 ? ... or every 3 both sides ?
or hold it as much as u can . for 6 or more and don't count just breath when u are out ?
As far as I know, most professional swimmers breathe every 2nd stroke, on the same arm. I breathe every 3rd, changing sides.
That depends on your technique, stroke and distance you are swimming.
For example, if you have a loping (or jumping) technique, then the only option you have is to breathe every 2 strokes, meaning you only breathe to one side. The loping technique is most used in the 200m freestyle. If you have an even technique (lets say Park Tae Hwan ), then you can breathe every 3 strokes, - to each side. What also matters is the distance. So if you are swimming a 50m freestyle, your best interest would be to breathe as little as possible. In a 100 m distance, it really depends on the person. I personally breathe every 4 while swimming 100m. For the longer distances, it is not recommended to breathe less than every 3 strokes, as your body will start to lack oxygen and your muscles will lactate causing them to burn. That's it from me :)
I do as much as I can because when you breathe, you slow down a little
Do every 3rd when training so you don't favour a side.
Every 3 strokes (bilateral breathing) is the best for stability. Even strokes will make you snake up the pool. Five strokes you might run out of air 😮💨
Can you plzz suggest me any cream , lotion or gel which will protect me from the water during swimming i mean from chlorine water
Buy a soap that wash the chlorine
@@fabian13333 and also, use a good moisturizing lotion after your post-swim shower.
Also limit time spent in the hot tub if you can.
Everyone says a different thing. Some say it's when the arm in recovery passes the head we should start turning the head to breathe.
Is it incorrect to breathe always from the same side: always on right or always on left? Breathing with my head turned to the left is definitely more difficult, and my coordination suffers. Comments please!
LClover Viewman yep. It will always feel odd, but stick with it. You just have to get used to it. To get a real feel for it, go down one length breathing to your right, and then come back breathing to your left.
breathing is difficult for me
yeah
Same here man😣😣😣😭😭
Jacky try correctly you will be successful
Yes I also suffered for breathing but now after trying a lot and watching videos on UA-cam I became successful
U can also do the same my frnd
me too!!!!!!!
yassssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol
👌👌👌
02:45 lmao the guy next to her doing it correct :D
yeah...and they spelled center like centre
Huili Palmer that's how we spell it here in Australia. 😀👍
oh... sorry
Is the video of the female swimming sped up or is that actual speed?
Harry Shissler actual speed
really.
switch hands assertively
This is the hardest part for me. as soon as my body rotates to inhale, my legs start to sink like a titanic.
🤔
I still swallow water in my mouth . Why is that ? Thanks
Breathing too light?
Why i can only breath in the right side?
are you right handed which why you feel comfortable doing right side breaths, i also do right side breathing tried left and lost the whole form of swimming. It will need practice to breath on left side
I can breathe only once or twice, after that I get tired and gasp for further breathing.
That's ok, breathing is overrated
Have you fixed this problem? If not try to exhale all air before breathing in, and dont take too long to breath, do it every 2 strokes
@@ahcryz2543 Thanks for the advice. I will try it now onwards.
@@gautambhatta Np, tell if it worked.
@@ahcryz2543 tomorrow I am resuming. After tomorrow's swim, I will let u know. Because of corona pools were closed. Though it opened earlier but I did not take the risk.
How is that woman swimming like that...when I try I get tired and even feel like I'm drowning. It is almost effortless with her. I know it isn't strength (definitely not I'm physically stronger) , and I question VO2 max as I've had a high reading on that. It has to be technique and 'flexibility'... but it is difficult to get the stroke right. It is easier said than done. Another thing, which is never mentioned is that swimmers should be in a form of hypoxia and certain people handle that better than others. It has not be measured in swimmers but I believe they are dealing with a mild form of hypoxia while swimming, more so than people who are on land.
its all about the breathing. I would get tired after 3 strokes cause I wasnt exhaling completely. Now I manage an entire lap. It's not much but it's progress.
I don't mind spending all day breathing, it sure beats spending all day not breathing.
Haha look at the pro blue cap guy go beside her
I want to swim all my stocks faster for Special Olympic
Weird accent🤔
