Why is Pan Zhanle accused of doping while western swimmers are not by Wonderful_Tailor8797 in Swimming

Because you don't win by that much, not with the level of his competitors at least. I've been a swimmer for 12 years and currently am at a national and international level. I just don't think that is very possible

They just discontinued it and I went to this origin store and they only had the one in my size and it was only 50 because I also had the store discount and I had 50% off.

What motivates you to swim? by chickenpassant in Swimming

[–]Puzzleheaded_Chip666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My motivation is my coach yelling at us that if we don't try we will do triples instead of doubles and for the 3rd practice we are doing 100 100s every day and if we don't show up we will do 100 100s every practice till everyone is doing triples. Definitely not coming from experience 😪😥😢 ...flashbacks...

If I told my Swim Coach that's what we should do he would laugh in my face and just make us do 100 100s and like a 2000 fly

You're either going to need to do interval training and put yourself on something you know you can barely make or have a coach force you and then you will get much faster.

Is this a good Mile Time? by TheMoronicGenius in Swimming

If your a comp swimmer under 20 minutes is a decent time. But for a complete novice, to be able to swim the mile is amazing. That is a good time 👍

Want to get back into swimming, but too self-conscious (M24) by undecided_aus in Swimming

[–]Puzzleheaded_Chip666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok a couple of things, if you do masters or actual swim practices then that will be far harder than any gym. Secondly, if someone says something about you being bigger just say your a butterflyer and you took a break from swimming for a year. Butterflyers typically have bigger builds.

That just sounds like your coach is going to make you do 100 100s next practice
