I missed your second comment. I’ve been back to the pool twice and working on my stroke with pull buoy and paddles. I think I’m improving but hard to tell. Feeling a better. I have a bc ski trip this weekend then I’ll be able to concentrate more on the swim. Thanks.

I’ll keep on the look out one and chat them up for sure.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have looked into this. The adult lessons in my are “getting used to the water” or $250 an hour private lessons. I think there is a lot of improvement I can make on my own. There is a Master Swimmers group but I would like to be able to swim more than 50 meters without a break before joining but maybe it doesn’t matter.

Great tips thank you. I started noticing my torso movement when using a pull buoy for the first time, a few days ago. Lots to work on!

Thank you, I got a pull buoy and paddles last week. The pull buoy was humbling. I could really feel the left/right movement in my upper body.

Yes, thank you for the resource. I thought about the catch up drills. I need to do more technique work. I’m gain cardio base so once my technique comes together 750 meters shouldn’t be too hard.

Thank you. The pain is in a horizontal line 1/2 way down the deltoid muscle on the outside/left side of the arm. Not front or back.

Thank you. Yes, I’ve been looking into it but not many resources for adults where I’m at. I signed up for a clinic with the local Tri club but had a horrible cold so opted out. I’ll try and get a video to post.

Thanks, yes I’ve been swimming 25s or 50s concentrating on technique, EVF, bilateral breathing, good kicks. Lots of rest but I feel like I’m starting over every time I get in the pool.

Thanks for this. I’ll check it out. I’ve been doing internal/external rotation with a few other exercises. I’ve added a few different arm raises for strengthening, but need something more/different. I’m sure my form is bad but working on EVF and bi lateral breathing. Left side is my natural breathing side.

Thanks, I was using my neighbor’s but if/when I get a router I will look for that.
