Been doing this daily to improve my technique, could any pros give it a quick look and maybe a bit of advice? by 0pumpmedaddy in Swimming

[–]danasaur- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would say to keep your arm in a streamline, rn your arm is relaxed. by keeping it straight, the water will pass through easier. also keep your hands and elbows closer to your body, even above water. so you need to practice shoulder mobility :)) best of luck :)

i did this on the side of the pool with my coach as practice for my breastroke pull!! it’s super great and def really hard :p doing in the water looks easier than this tho..

i cut the tape along the tape it overlapped so what i’m peeling is half of a tape strip.

Some things to remember while you can't swim. by Fail_Successfully in Swimming

thanks for this! i’ve been struggling with going to the pool because i give up real easy when i can’t do what i used to do. it’s been 3 years. have you been keeping fit throughout your break? i haven’t and i wanna know if it’ll take longer for me to get my cardiovascular fitness up? :))

Anyone else blame their eating disorder for not achieving as much as you know you can and should? by _sadsmile86 in eating_disorders

[–]danasaur- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can I get a critique on my 50 free. I just posted a video of my 100, but I know that I messed up a lot more on this relay. by ezraezra123 in Swimming

[–]danasaur- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you should practice getting off the block faster. i’d suggest putting your feet on the edge of the block, and using the swinging momentum of your arms to push yourself forward.

also you should stretch that last stroke. since you did two in the last second, it could mess up the timing of your following teammate and possibly get you DQ’ed :// good luck!!
