  • A very common issue in freestyle is when a swimmer's legs sink. This doesn't usually have much to do with how hard they're kicking. It's more about posture and core engagement. Watch this video and follow this drill progression to improve your body position for a faster and more efficient freestyle

    Thank you. After giving up years ago, I am trying again to learn to swim. These videos are so helpful. And why are commenters worried about her make up. Obviously, when making a video that people will watch over and over, one might want to look her best.

    I did 6 of these drills yesterday and they helped so much while being fun at the same time (I did feel sore the rest of the day so maybe it was too much fun 😂). I was finally able to move a significant distance while kicking. The improvement on the overall freestyle won't happen overnight BUT this helped tremendously to improve body position awareness and it gave me tools to check each individual component of the technique. THANK YOU!

  • @laveenr
    @laveenr 5 років тому +2

    Drill no.4 single balance breath that's the most important and toughest, if you master it you can swim longer and faster without gasping for air.
    Thanks for the video.

  • @danieliskander9680

    The problem with many beginners swimming techniques is bad training. Many start with a friend teaching them the dog style. Where you simply famble in water ..mixing short free pulls..hands wide apart ..head above water while doing frog kicks. Once one is able to float with this mixed tech it is hard to learn the basics.. one finds it hard yo do proper techniques and refuses to learn.
    In my experience it is easier to train one who cannot swim at all than one with these mixed motions.
    With free style..start with leg strokes.. master the leg strokes ..then learn the arm pulls...then learn body rotations then breathe.
    All these can be learned in two sessions. Provided the student is good at listening

    Thanks for the video. I think you may have hit on something I never gave a moments thought to when swimming… having an actively engaged core. I’ll try to incorporate this into my swimming next time I’m out.

    • @mrwillwgp

      Yeah! ENGAGE your core! Sometimes we forget our bodies have everything to do with actually swimming!

    Thank you Chloe for the video! I was stuck with leg sinking for the longest time, until I tried the drill #4 and I finally figured out which core muscle to use to keep the feet up. In addition it corrected my bad habit of pushing my hand down to breath. I swim so much more efficient now. :) By the way drill #1 still seems impossible to me...
