Swimming EVERYDAY For 30 Days

- I went for a swim training every day for 30 days to see how much faster I could get. I swam 110K in about 35-40 hours in the pool. Here`s the video about the process.
Thanks for watching!
Sven.
I swam everyday for 4 months before covid struck. I was swimming 1 hour a day and doing about 1500 metres per session. I lost 15kg (33 pounds). I've just started swimming again trying to lose more weight but I'll admit that my motivation has waived. I can only be bothered to swim about 750metres in 30 mins. But this is going to be my week getting back into it.
Wow 15 kg, impressive! Yeah I always just tried to focus less on numbers and more on showing up and enjoying the movement/flow of things more when I hit a little bump in my motivation. You got this, good luck with the comeback to swimming! 👏🏻🙌🏻
@@SvenVee thank you 😁. Literally just finished my swim then haha. 750 metres in about 30 minutes. But hey it's a start haha. Look forward to watching more videos 😁
Thank you and congrats haha, you're on that good track! 😄
I'm swimming every day around 700 M and now I just completed exactly 2 months I lost 7 kg
Exactly my situation right now
Re starting my swim journey
3 weeks in and swimming 2km every day and working my way up
Best thing I ever did.
So glad I came across this video! Great content. 👍🏽
That's awesome! 💪 Thanks for watching. And I absolutely agree. Swimming is just awesome 🙂
Started swimming again yesterday, going through your whole progress whilst recording and talking myself through it all, this gave me so much motivation and things to look forward to. Thank you
You got this! Thanks for watching!
This is great content and you've motivated me to start swimming again. Cheers!
That's awesome to hear! Thank you, I appreciate it 🙌🏻
@Jacob Thorpe the swimming pool in the vid is long course. 50m.
Thank you for the motivation to take on a new challenge! I just finished my 30 day swim challenge and was able to swim over100,00 meters! I had brain surgery at 40 five years ago and the recovery has been brutal! This challenge was difficult, and I finally feel like an athlete again! Thank you!
Wow congrats that's amazing! That's an incredible feat, Janice. 👏🏻
I'm happy and grateful that this helped to motivate.
🔝🔝🔝
Love it, very cool video! Impressive what you accomplished in 30 days with regular training 👍 shows how much the mindset and other factors can influence a race. Congrats on hitting the under 1min mark again 🎉
Thanks so much Michael! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Yeah I'm quite glad too with that result 😊🙏🏻
The Little things mean a lot , like shaving your body hair .It actually makes you swim easier , p.s I once beat someone in a race at a swim meet by barely a second lol.
I think with swimming especially if your tense, you won’t perform as good as when your loose and having fun. Your body needs to flex and for that it needs to be relaxed but still have burst of energy, which comes with excitement of having fun and adrenaline.
Couldn't agree more and has always been my experience too. That's why it's so important for coaches to train their swimmers' mental approach to races too. Meditation etc. can work wonders. Thanks for watching and the input!
Exactly. If ever I feel sluggish and as though I’m fighting to gain speed, I tell myself to just relax and chill out and take the pressure off myself and then my speed picks up because I relax.
Awesome video, really enjoyed the challenge videos recently
Thank you Emma 🙏🏻
Growing up on an island swimming is a normal thing to me. it's been quiet a while now didn't do this kind of stuff . Thanks for sharing this information Sven .
Thank you for watching, I really appreciate it 🙏🏻😊
Truly inspiring video! As someone who swam year-round in highschool and decided not to swim in college, I can say that you have inspired me to get back in the water some.
That's awesome! I'm honoured that it motivated you man, good luck and have fun! 🤙🏻
Used to play polo,
Getting back into the pool is like coming back to home. All the memories and hard work you had in there with some friends, man I love the water.
Went yesterday, shoulder clicked, swam 700 m total, sucked, but felt amazing after!
:)
I can relate. I still get that tinge of adrenaline just thinking of a competition in the pool haha.
Thanks for watching!
This video is SOOOO underrated you're chill, extremely attractive, motivational and really good at youtube good job bro keep it up.
Edit: and hard working
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that! 🙏🏻
@@SvenVee Just speaking the facts, good luck for the future.👍
LMAOOOO what did the extremely attractive have to do with anything
Love the video. Swimming is my freedom. I love to fly thru the water. It is so important to challange ourselves. Your a Champ kid. ❤❤
Thank you so much! Yeah swimming is great. Will be swimming more again this Spring 🏊🏻♂️
Hey Sven, this video was awesome. From a guy in a very similar position as you as a swimmer, but from a perspective we’re my mental health has been down recently, this really speaks to me as a way to get back doing something that’s going to improve my life in a few areas.
Do you still have the notes of the workouts that you were doing for this challenge? I would really want to see them and try to create a program that works for me based upon them
Ah thank you so much Adam. Yes it really upped my mood and mental state at the time too.
Unfortunately, I can't find them anymore. I just looked, but I think they got thrown out with that little notebook thing since it was all used up a couple months ago.
Generally I can just say that I went progressively further on average each week, with the first weeks just focused on covering the distance of around 2.5K every session (little to no sprints or endurance timed sets), to then incorporate more and more endurance sets from week three onward + longer distances 3K upwards to 5K. My endurance sets were usually 6x200m timed at around +20" to +"26 per three. Or like 10x100m with 4 progressively timed (+24" to +14") and one rest, times two. Or something fun and intense like 16x50m at +2"/+4". My rest was usually at 30-45 sec. I made sure to not do 2 heavy workouts after each other if I could help it. On the chill days, I focused more on technique sets, turns and starts, with maybe some short fun 25m sprints/climactics in there. I'd also recommend doing one session a week with a 2x50m sprint or something in there. Just to get that competitive feeling a bit again and keep things interesting. Hope this helps somewhat. Good luck man!
This was very well made 👍🏼
Thank you Ryan 🙏🏻
Great video. My story is similar. Swimmer from 8-16, came back in college years, then quit for a while then on and off thru the years. Trying to get back at it consistently and I found your video. I turn in 50 in 2 days and I want to be able to swim ironman distance in less than 1 hr by the end of the yr.
Hey Sven, nice work thanks for sharing
And don’t forget you had to turn in this 50mtr pool as well, in comparison to your pr from before. I think it’s really impressive! 💪💪👌
Thanks a lot Christian! 🙌
Man, a hug from brasil! AWESOME your video, congrats
Thank you so much!
How does a swimming workout or training session look like?
I’m a decent swimmer, I absolutely love it, but I have never competed or trained to get better. How should I start?
Bro great content... Iam subscribing
Please upload regularly..
Best wishes
How are you at 3k subs with such good content and quality?
I need more shares! 😄
But for real, thank you for the compliment, I really appreciate it 🙏🏻
I need to start swimming regularly as well as training using this for the good tips
Thanks for watching and good luck with swimming!
I am brand new to swimming , adding it into my workouts since my gym has a pool , is a cap necessary ? Ive seen other videos and they have it but you dont , so just was curious ? Need all the tips i could get thanks!
Depends on the rules of the pool. I generally did swim with a cap, just some moments didn't because it feels more relaxed. It's good to be more streamlined in the water (less resistance) and to protect your hair a bit though, so generally recommend it. Thanks for watching!
I started swimming when i was 3 aswl and stopped 1 year ago ( im 15) and i want to start again and get back on track but just dont know where to start
That's the f-ing problem with swimming and overall high performance sports man.
You train hard everyday and throughout those days it clearly seems that you are improving but when it comes to that moment it's as if you have done nothing before.
The only thing you can do is accept it and try to improve, until you hit a time that you will never break again
That did happen to me back in the day as well haha. Very relatable
Do you swim before gym or vice versa?
I am kinda confused between going to Gym or going for swimming.. Which one shall help me lose some weight if I stick to a deficit diet?
Swimming would help more, but beware that the cold water and calorie burn will cause more hunger. So overeating seems very common with quite a lot of swimmers post training.
I would honestly do a combination of both if at all possible.
@@SvenVee Okayyyy thank you so muchh!! Great video btw and sure I will try to implement all you said means a lot!!
@@sairraj8040 Very welcome man, good luck! And thanks for watching :)
Hey man what u think about me : 13 y/o 6,2 height 65 kg and I have some pudge. I am currently swimming 2000 calories per day + 2 times home to gym and return( another 550) and then I do some treadmill one hour 600 calories
My guy. You need to hit the gym. You're tall and skinny according to your stats. Don't worry about pudge. Train a bit of muscle and it'll even out super fast.
Why did you not do before or after pics? What was the point
Sharing the experience of a 30 day swim challenge 🤷🏻♂️
Did the same challenge. Amazing
Thats amazing
Thank you 🙏🏻
Good for you!!
Thanks Rita!
We have the same pb from back in the day my guy. I'm from ireland
*How often do you go swimming?* 🌊
For 16 years :)
Yeah you're way ahead of me 😅
hi lLove young man landk pic
@@SvenVee hi jan lLove you fb fiends
You swam 1:02 for 100metres before the training?
Yeah I did
Can't understand how it's possible to swim sub 1 minute. I've started swimming a few years ago, as an older adult and have a PB of 1:14 on 100 m. Can imagine eventually going down to 1:12, but lower seem impossible.
That's already quite fast!
In my case it's just cause I did competitive swimming for 10 years, so probably jot a fair comparison. Thanks for watching :)
@@SvenVee Yes of course, but sub 1 min is super-impressive either way. 😊 I'll keep my focus on 1000 m, did 15:34 a few days ago and sub 15 would be nice someday. I've done 400 m in 5:56. I start from the pool wall, and guess diving also could shave some time off.
You should make more swimming videos
If and when the pandemic is largely over and pools open again, I'll make plans for it! Thanks for watching 🙏🏻
@@SvenVee awesome, what about your swimming gear and maybe some good workouts at the gym for swimmers?
@@michaellaserinko6436 Great ideas! When I make another swimming related video, I'll try to include that!
Where was that swimming pool?
Germany
Hey Sven, found your channel and just realized that your are aus Deutschland 😅🙈
Welcome! And yes I'm half Belgian half German :)
Going on 7 days in a row with a 2 beat front crawl, I average about 45mins a day in the water
Be water my friend’s 🌊
Do you have before and after pictures
I think I might somewhere, but the difference isn't that huge. I was a bit more lean after 30 days and most of all my stamina became a lot better again!
Dude I have gain weight I want to loose and be fit again I'm not happy with my body as of right now because I have let myself go I want to make sure I don't let my self get weigh too far ya know
@@jacobconn6040 Well if you're overweight, then any cardio (including swimming) will do you good. Swimming has a huge cardiovascular benefit as well as some muscle toning, so I definitely recommend it for a nice trinity of benefits. Good luck with getting back on track!
I was at a pier at a beach when I saw a man swim as far as the eye could see, as he was getting closer and closer he eventually swam under and through the pier, and just kept swimming aggressively. I noticed he had a UCLA speedo on his butt lol
Must've been an athlete! Thanks for watching
Who is the mysterious man?
That a good video bro u can have more subscribers. just advertise u r self more
Thank you, working on it! 😊
Can you get shredded with only swimming?
Yes you definitely can. I think most swimmers opt for extra cardio workouts outside of the pool though, since swimming is one of those sports that creates a huge appetite (can confirm this). It`s all about controlling calorie intake
@@SvenVee why i am asking this, because i have problems with vision, that means doctor do not recommend do any dumbell or weight lifting exercises. So to hold my physical tone, like Zac Efron)))) can i get physical body by only swimming?
@@mikewazovski848 probably
Yes you can if you put a lot of effort into it and maybe get some form of personal trainer if possible.
Don’t expect to get good results after 3 months, it will most likely take 6-8 months, because you need to develop good core strength, good technique and a cardiovascular system that’s optimised for swimming before you can start doing 50-100 miles a month (as an example). These three requirements in my experience if you are going to do freestyle are very important.
why are you wearing a techsuit though?
To make it feel like a race and it's fun 🤷🏻♂️
I find it impossible to train in public pools because I can’t swim at a nice pace without bumping into people.
That is a bit of a challenge sometimes, but gotta woek with what you can get sometimes 🤷🏻♂️
Amazing keep going my friend , you doing great ✨🌱 🎞 🏊♀️

Thanks a lot man 🙌🏻
Sven Vee
Of course You very welcome my new friend !! 🎥💫
keep going !! ✨
If You have a moment pls stop by to my youtube channel “Optical Power” let me know what do you think 💭
I would love to have your advice Thanks !
Kader.
Welcome to my life
you actually used a real pool to swim and didn't do it in your bathtub, glad to know :)))
I LOVE SWIMMING SO TO BE A GOOD PERSON IMA SUB 😇🤗❤
Thank you! Swimming is great 😄
omg omg this is crazyyy..
Training everyday is harmful, no?
Not necessarily, especially with cardio-based sports. You can do low intensity, low resistance "active recovery" type of training as rest days. It's what most swimmers do at higher levels.
Do you eat a strict diet?
No I didn't (and still don't)
@@SvenVee would you say swimming and running will help me get from 16 stone (chubby build) to 12 stone toned/slim build
@@ryanbailey6996 Yes it can, but you do need to restrict your diet to some degree. I was just experimenting by trying to eat the same more or less, but exercising a whole lot more, so that works. So just make sure you burn more than you consume, but do it at a sustainable pace so you actually make lasting changes instead of yoyo-dieting
In the moment
Always 🙏🏻 thanks for watching!
WHY ARE YOU WEARING A TECH SUIT
For fun!
@@SvenVee AAAAAHHHHHHHH
Competitiveness is really sexy
Wow around 1 min/100m is a bad time 😳😳
It is what it is, can't all be Phelps 😄
@@SvenVee 😃no I mean, I think that’s an amazing time.
@@JohnHarryShaun Haha misunderstood, but thank you, it's an alright time. Nowhere near top level swimmers though 😄
You look like Elon musk
Blup 🐠
Jij ook, met je platvoeten
Trained from the age of 3? 🤨
That's when I started swimming!
Must be nice to be single and no kids lol
Agreed!
Kari ponnaya huttige putha
Wear a hat
No u
@@SvenVee I do. It’s just good practice at the swimming pool. Plenty of info why.
It will keep your hair out of the pool, keep hair out of your face so that you can focus on your workout, protect your hair from chlorine, keep your head warm, keep you safe, and it will help you swim faster…
First one being the most important.
I wear one 98% of the time haha.
Sometimes I just like the feeling of not having one on, simple 🤷🏻♂️
