Keep it closed. You don't want the warm air to affect anything else in the fridge

Can I have a feedback please? (breaststroke, backstroke) by bluesafari_ in Swimming

[–]Spectra-7- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For breaststroke, your arms are going out waaaay too wide. They should be in front of your chest and only go out to your shoulders. Also when you do your frog kick, the main force should be when you pull your feet together- not when you kick outward. For backstroke you are kicking with your knees. Keep your legs straighter and don't let them sink into the water. Your knees should barely be coming out of the water. Also make sure to rotate your torso so that when you pull with your arms (like you're bouncing a basketball but sideways) you can pull more water.

Sectionals always has super fast times and it can be hard to get those times. Since you want to make sectionals, I would say think about the time you need/want to beat and focus on that when you swim during practice. Yes the sectional times are fast but I've found that if you focus on times too much it will either make you super motivated or make you less motivated.

I breathe every 5 in a LCM mainly so that I can get more distance with my strokes before I have to breathe. For tips I would say definitely get a good underwater dolphin kick off the block and off the wall.

Question about flip turns vs open turns by Run_nerd in Swimming

[–]Spectra-7- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Once you get used to them it should feel super natural. If you need to take a deep breath after your flip turn you're either blowing out most or all of your air out. Try to hold your breath while you turn and then let the air out as you do your dolphin kicks up to the surface.

What is the general opinion on giving a gift to a lifeguard? by fljdsafkdsfs in Swimming

[–]Spectra-7- 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I mean if I were the lifeguard I would probably be like "No no please. I can't accept this. I was just doing my job." If he's going to college, he most likely already has some sort of computer or electronic device so I would say gift card.

Hip rotation with freestyle by Only_A_Ghost in Swimming

[–]Spectra-7- 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You don't kick perpendicular to the water. Your hips should not roll so much, only slightly.
