It's more of a 25 yard pool , it took him 8-9 strokes per length , while michael phelps takes avg 12 strokes in a 25 meter , just check out other professional swimmers race or past Olympics
Awesome! 9 to 10 strokes per 25 meters all under 15 seconds! That is something Very few people can do. Thank you for sharing with all the measurements on the screen as this swimmer is so smooth it is hard to believe that he moves that quickly.
I kept telling myself, "Well, I bet that's a 25y pool that he's claiming to be a 25m pool..." - All of it to make myself feel better for seeing somebody make a sub 60 100m (what is that a 53/54 100y equivalent?) look so freakin' effortless. Seriously, your technique, streamlining, etc. - a thing of beauty....and envy lol. Non-swimmers don't quite understand/can't appreciate the performance you just showed here.
Yeah, it must be definitely 25y pool. There are 25 segments, but if you look at the start, when the swimmer is streched at max, he takes up 3 segments lenght, which in a 25m pool would be 3 meters. Unless he is 215cm tall, this is for sure a 20y. Anyway it is still awesome, I hope someday I can swim like that, or at least close to it
Each segment has 6 discs, meaning, this is for sure a 25y pool. The ones with 25m have their sameller segments with 10 discs. The person lenght is about 12 discs, thus meaning his is about 1,82m tall.
I find myself thinking "good angle of the head, the eyes looking 45° to the front. Good wrist position, good catch... The legs don't create drag..." With your voice in my head 😂 it's very relaxing to watch this guy!!
What i find especially inspiring about his freestyle is his use of the arms and hands- the line he draws from the top of his fingers through the arm. It's perfection
..//.. So we are all born with sin, but in order to get to HEAVEN we would have to be sinless, bc HEAVEN is a place w/o sin. This was not possible, but through HIS ONE AND ONLY SON JESUS CHRSIT, (GOD in the flesh) HE lived a perfect sinless life, and died the death we deserved as sinners, being crucified and whipped and tortured and suffocating to death.

I currently swim 100m (short course) in 1.04 and I probably spend double of effort compared to him. Thanks for sharing this experience I will definitely try your approach once the swimming pools will open again.
The head position is very interesting. Almost always totally immersed (bum up), also demonstrating great natural flexibility in his shoulders plus a superb inherent feel for the water ...................... part of the recipe that makes up an Olympian i guess . I am envious !
The differences compared to the last video... - deeper catch and pull? - faster pace - 25 meter pool vs 50? - swimming cap? :) There must be a new video with full comparison soon!
@@kalpeti1 Interesting observation :) but that must be just an optical effect (parallax?) since he's close enough to the camera. According to Wikipedia, he's 190 cm.
With the 4-5 dolphins kicks underwater to start each length, he's effectively cutting each length down to 15-17 meters of actual freestyle stroking. So there's that.
That's Sun Yang's technique. When breathing and the left arm extending kick only once, when not breathing and the other arm extending do continuous three kicks.
Trying to imitate his style - I love how he moves his arms and hands. It is the most beautiful freestyle swimming I have seen so far on the Internet. Today, I timed my 100 m freestyle (with a pull-buoy between my legs), imitating, or at least trying to, his hand and arm movements. I got around 1:30, which is 45 seconds per 50 m. Not great, but considering everything, I guess it is OK. I just got back to the swimming pool in June (it is October 3rd today). I hadn’t been swimming for 8 years, and even when I had been swimming, it was only for a couple of months at a time, with breaks in between. Also, I know I lose seconds by not doing four dolphin kicks after the turn. Sometimes I do none, and sometimes I manage one little dolphin kick, but with the pull-buoy, it is not as easy.
I’ve been focusing on kick timing. Weirdly, his kick is asymmetrical. Left arm catch = strong left leg kick. Left arm finish = medium right leg kick. Right arm catch = strong right leg kick, BUT Right arm finish = NO KICK. Weird. On one side it’s two kicks and a recovery. On the other, it’s a one-beat kick. I’m working on the Strong, Medium, Recovery on both sides. Any explanation for the asymmetry?
I’ve also been working on it. The kick with the catch definitely helps the rotation. It also boosts the body forward so you can catch quickly without losing purchase on the water. This is the major kick. The medium kick is at the end of the stroke, which is the most powerful moment and it occurs when the recovered arm is streamlined. This is the fastest moment in the stroke. It’s not unlike the butterfly kick when the arms are finishing their stroke. It still seems weird that he only does it on one side. When the arm recovers, the legs don’t so muck kick as they recover to set up for the next big catch kick. I’ve been practicing this with and without small fins. Using fins, withvery little movement and a *snap* at the right timings, you can go really fast with little effort. Wish I had been practicing this years ago.
Joseph Purdy - After my previous comment, I saw a video on this technique. It’s a four beat kick. Three on one side and just one on the other. I believe that this is a compromise. It’s like a six beat kick, but conserves energy. Looking forward to a politician with the balls to end this pandemic, so I can get back in the (local, indoor) pool and try it.
Really good style but pool lanyard is 26-27 blue and white stripes. He is 3 or 3'5 stripes tall. If he is 180-190cm tall then each stripe is 60-70cm long maximun. 27x70= 1890cm. The pool is no longer than 20m.
beware of lense distortion. In his 1.10/100m long course he was averaging 1.7m/stroke with 12-13m underwaters. Put the same here with only 9-10 strokes and you have your 25m
Hum, it's a 25m pool, so he has more opportunities to glide and dolphin kick.The only change I noticed is in his right hand entry, which is directed a little bit more downwards, when compared to the first video.
Wasn't the 1.10 long course?Great content as always cheers. Fyi your channel came up when chatting with a stranger in the pool, South coast of the UK. You're getting about mate
I have seen your freestyle and I'm very impresive about your stroke, can you tell how many meters you are swimming under water before you start swim on the surface?
holy crap him at a comfortable pace is 59 seconds, when I'm going full speed mine is like 55, and by the end, I'm dying, I hope someday ill be fast enough where I can be comfortable and swim it, I doubt it though.
Hi Tristin, I'd say you'd have to go back to basics and work on your stroke technique to do it. However in his classic book "The Science of Swimming" James Counsilman said that a major stroke change will slow a swimmer down for a few months, but it may be possible to change technique bit by bit. I haven't swum at all for years and am quite old now but if I do get back in the water I would work almost entirely on stroke technique and not go for any speed until good technique was established. The other thing is pacing. Just going half a second slower on the first 25m of a 4x25 hundred metres, maintaining the pace for the second 25m and giving it all you've got from 65 or 75m could improve your time by half a second to a second. You need to practise this as it feels quite different. Almost all club swimmers I've seen go off too fast and then have to slow down. The same applies to all distances
@@josephpurdy4664 Hi Joseph, I'm no expert though I have done a lot of miles in training. The best advice I can give is to use a snorkel so the breathing doesn't disrupt the stroke and swim slowly so you can really focus on getting the movements and timing right. For movements and timing Effortless Swimming has some of the best advice I've found. It takes time and lots of repetition to establish a good habit. Only then start to breathe without a snorkel, then increase pace. In his book "The Science of Swimming" James Counsilman, who was the father of modern swimming training, says it takes months for a swimmer to make a major stroke change successfully and start to improve on former times. I find it helps to practise the movements you want out of the water. Personally I think it's well worth the time spent developing a good stroke. If you can get someone to video your stroke from different positions above and below water that should be very helpful
John Melville Thank you for the reply. I never realized that a snorkel could help with that part of the stroke because I rarely use one. Thanks for the help! i’ll be sure to look into the book!
@@josephpurdy4664 The Science of Swimming is an old book now and much of it will have been superseded by improvements in almost every area but Counsilman's thinking is very good.

That does NOT look like short course meters, more like short course yards. With that tempo and estimation of his speed with reference to the lane line in the background, this is 100 yards.

I can't breathe when swimming. That's the biggest challenge I'm having. Even if I'm able to bring my head out when swimming, something just gets my lungs blocked 😞
This is my long term goal here. I don't know it is even possible. When I swim with rapid tempo I have pace 1:24-1:30 with avg. 8 SPL on 25 m pool course.
What type of kicking is that? Looks more like a flutter kick to me and it isn't continuous. What proportion of propulsion is from the top half of the body Vs kicking from the legs?
I am new to swimming but leg movement is different from what my coach said. He is bending from knee and giving a jerk. Wondering whether it is different technique??
How does this time translate into 100 meters in open water (starting from idle position in the water, no wall push-off)? I'm asking because I never swim in a pool, only in open water.
I do not think anyone can give you the right answer. Salty water lifts you up, hence makes it easier to swim.Turns help you rest your arms, plus its a bit of speed boost if it is done right. My guess , he would go around 01:03 - 01:04 /
Just depends on the swimmer and were the open water is/ temperature. Me personally 5k in the pool 58minutes but 5k open water time is 1h 6m. So you would have to compear your time's in the pool to open water as everyone is different.
Each of the black and white stripe should be about half a meter, assuming this guy is 1.8m tall as his body cover about 3 of the stripes. I count the black and white stripe and I have a hard time to believe it’s a 25m pool. This pool seems to only be about 15m long.
same thoughts. and he swim with almost full stops, but there must be constant wave at such speeds. everybody can try to reach 1 minute per 100 speed with fins, and it is not that speed as in this vid. look at 1500 races, they have 1 min for 100 speed and compare with his 😊
Judging by the lane lines, where the T's are on the floor, and guessing how tall the swimmer is, this isn't a 25m pool. Unless the swimmer is about 2.5m tall, but I doubt that. The pool looks about 21m. Still smooth though.
I'm really struggling with breathing for this stroke. going side to side every 3rd stroke for breath. is it ok too do what this guy is going just coming up for air that often? Even if swimming this stroke for 40 mins a time?
It is simply amazing ! Looks like no effort at all but still so fast... I was wondering how it corelates with open water swimming ? If this is 59s/100m what would be Your avg. in open water or Tri ? Have You ever tried and measured ? Thank You for all the materials - it is great inspiration for me :)
@@Martinexefer Thanks! How did You calculate it ? It would be super fast considering that olympic gold for Rio Men's Open Water Marathon Final avg. is above 1:07/100m

Haha, same with me! Seems to me like he's got an invisible propeller attached that gives him that much extra propulsion at such a low stroke rate. :)

Meanwhile on the very same day I did an amazing job of doing 100m in the style of an old potato being pushed uphill....
Ahhhh, but we all have to start somewhere !
Ah, but you did do 100m. ^_~
It looks like he has a 3 beat kick if I'm not mistaken. Didn't know that was a thing
Anthony Bruno are you talking about the little double kick on the one side?
Its personal preference i think. Sometimes i would do that too
That's just so satisfying
Time to cry ...
Jk, time to work harder. Gosh ... he was not even kicking!

So we are all born with sin, but in order to get to HEAVEN we would have to be sinless, bc HEAVEN is a place w/o sin. This was not possible, but through HIS ONE AND ONLY SON JESUS CHRSIT, (GOD in the flesh) HE lived a perfect sinless life, and died the death we deserved as sinners, being crucified and whipped and tortured and suffocating to death. So HE could repay our debt of sin, thus making us able to go to HEAVEN. You see GOD loves us so much that not only did HE do all that for us, but HE made it free, GOD made is so that all we had to do to accept this free gift was to but our FAITH AND TRUST in JESUS, in what HE did for us. Thats it, that's all we needed to do. And in doing so HE will use us, in order to spread HIS love to others, to be vessels of HIS grace. I am just a mere peasant, but even though I am a peasant, GOD honors me like HIS child. HIS love for us is not comprehendible. All HE asks is that you love HIM as HE as loves you first. GOD BLESS.
Inspirational.
I want to cry
How many degrees is his rotation?
Perfect Video. Thx so much!
This is a reminder to us all: long and strong, long and strong!
So he does two kicks per stroke on his non breathing side and one kick per stroke on his breathing side. Looks so smooth!
It looks so good. I wish I could swim so well some day. it does not have to be fast but smooth
with just 4 beat kicks; amazing
Very clean!
Is this the same as Adam Ocean Walker’s technique?
That does NOT look like short course meters, more like short course yards. With that tempo and estimation of his speed with reference to the lane line in the background, this is 100 yards.
i second that. its yards.
Wrong it’s Filmed in Queensland
Australia. All SCM..... none of that
Old imperial measurements!!! 😂😂
@@andrewthomas8737 He is also an Australian Olympian. 1:47 200 free in the relay final.
And he held the World Cup 200 free
Record til Danas broke last year.
Dan also won a medal in Kazan
2015.
An Amazing young man.....
Once In a lot of trouble with the law
And looking at a prison sentence
To turning his life around.
@@andrewthomas8737 You said the pool is in Queensland Australia. Which pool is it?
Is this really a 25 m pool? It feels like 10 m ... 🤔
Currently at VA senior champs! 22.02 50 free tonight
Why did the timer stop 0.5 seconds before he touched the wall?
Very powerful dolphin kick though. And all his kicks are very powerful. Can see from the waves they creat around.
What is your best time when you're putting in max effort?
Look slow but yet so fast ! Graceful swimming my lad 💪

Truly amazing
Show some long course action please
Props to the camera man for keeping up
How tall is the swimmer, and what technique does he use?
Is it necessary to exit the hand as close as possible to the thighs?
Awesome. Is it normal to have such little foot activity though?
I can't breathe when swimming. That's the biggest challenge I'm having. Even if I'm able to bring my head out when swimming, something just gets my lungs blocked 😞
Do you exhale when your head is in ?
oh, smooth swimming is so good, that it even makes the air bubbles go up about a quarter faster than in real life. fascinating...
Just got 59 with Combat Side Stroke 100m. Trying to get that technique down with freestyle but it's hard learning on your own without any criticism.
Little kick, low stroke cadence, high distance per stroke?
This is my long term goal here. I don't know it is even possible. When I swim with rapid tempo I have pace 1:24-1:30 with avg. 8 SPL on 25 m pool course.
What type of kicking is that? Looks more like a flutter kick to me and it isn't continuous. What proportion of propulsion is from the top half of the body Vs kicking from the legs?
his flip turn is right hand to push water and body rotate to left
Excelente todo, y que buena coordinación de patada y brazada!!!👏👏👏🤩🤩🤩❤️🙌
I know that some swimming pools in USA are 25 yard (less than 25 meters). Is it true or false? What with this case?
I am new to swimming but leg movement is different from what my coach said. He is bending from knee and giving a jerk. Wondering whether it is different technique??
Why when i am more dynamic in the water and being a lot slower at the same time
How does this time translate into 100 meters in open water (starting from idle position in the water, no wall push-off)? I'm asking because I never swim in a pool, only in open water.
I do not think anyone can give you the right answer. Salty water lifts you up, hence makes it easier to swim.Turns help you rest your arms, plus its a bit of speed boost if it is done right. My guess , he would go around 01:03 - 01:04 /
@@thegosugamer1 thanks man. So, about 5 sec. slower in open water. Sounds plausible.
Wet suit help you to float easier. Less effort
Just depends on the swimmer and were the open water is/ temperature.
Me personally 5k in the pool 58minutes but 5k open water time is 1h 6m.
So you would have to compear your time's in the pool to open water as everyone is different.
How was this filmed?
Is this meters? Dont see a lot of 25m pools.
Each of the black and white stripe should be about half a meter, assuming this guy is 1.8m tall as his body cover about 3 of the stripes. I count the black and white stripe and I have a hard time to believe it’s a 25m pool. This pool seems to only be about 15m long.
same thoughts. and he swim with almost full stops, but there must be constant wave at such speeds.
everybody can try to reach 1 minute per 100 speed with fins, and it is not that speed as in this vid.
look at 1500 races, they have 1 min for 100 speed and compare with his 😊
He dose it with 8 to 10 strokes always I can't believe this. 😮. For me at least take about 14 strokes
Could watch this for hours.....😁
Judging by the lane lines, where the T's are on the floor, and guessing how tall the swimmer is, this isn't a 25m pool. Unless the swimmer is about 2.5m tall, but I doubt that. The pool looks about 21m. Still smooth though.
I'm really struggling with breathing for this stroke. going side to side every 3rd stroke for breath. is it ok too do what this guy is going just coming up for air that often? Even if swimming this stroke for 40 mins a time?
Interesting kick pattern, not 2, not 6...4?
ARE THE KICKS " TWO BEAT" PLease someone can answer thanks.
This is 100 yards ?
No it’s 25 meters, I train in this pool

Ácido Clorídrico anytime 😘
@@aram8495 you mean
Nobody: asked
It is simply amazing ! Looks like no effort at all but still so fast...
I was wondering how it corelates with open water swimming ? If this is 59s/100m what would be Your avg. in open water or Tri ? Have You ever tried and measured ?
Thank You for all the materials - it is great inspiration for me :)
1:05/100m could be a probably pace
@@Martinexefer Thanks!
How did You calculate it ? It would be super fast considering that olympic gold for Rio Men's Open Water Marathon Final avg. is above 1:07/100m
@@SwimmingLabJakubNowakowski Olympics Marathon Final is 10k long. The swimming part of an Ironman for example is 3.8k, so if they only did that distance the 1.07 it could be 1.05
@@Martinexefer Makes sense! That is around Brownlee's pace at Olympic distance. Thanks for Your comments !
@@SwimmingLabJakubNowakowski you're welcome
How tall is this swimmer? Armspan?
Interesting that he seems to kick his right leg in isolation but when he kicks his left he puts a small kick on his right as well, kinda asymmetrical
Who is the swimmer?
Great video! First comment with substance. 😋🏊🏻♀️🏊🏻🏊♂️
is this pool in metres or yards?
