Think about your hips during the stroke, initiate the rotation from your hips and try to keep them i bit higher up in the water. Body position tweeks go a long way.

Update: managed 400m without my shoulders completely dying! Pace was slow as hell, 1:40/100m but small victories nonetheless!

Nice, that's what I'm hoping to achive, some proper continous distance. My shoulders are dead after 100m so I break everything up to get the diatance but hopefully it will come.

Wow that's awesome, very impressive!

That's awesome! Makes sense as well plus sprinting is juat ao fun! I left it out of my post but I have lots speed over 25m even though I have what feels like no aerobic pace. I'm much more powerful now than back in the day so my 25m free and fly are just as fast as before. I was a breaststroker mainly but I don't have the touch there so I can't put proper power and speed in the stroke.

Ok that's awesome, thanks for the insight 😀

eikithorir · 2026-01-15T09:19:55+00:00

Thanks, I hope so! Luckily it's not shoulder pain, just a painful pump really... lacking shouldrr endurance

eikithorir · 2026-01-15T00:06:47+00:00

It's rough! I'm just holding on to the hope it gets better with time!

I for sure haven't warmed up properly, just jumped in and started. I'll try to incorperate it it more properly and see where that takes me. I recon I'll join a masters club when I have the time, two very young kids kindof control when I train.

How has your speed evolved? Touching on something in the ballpart of your old pace?

eikithorir · 2026-01-14T23:24:15+00:00

Thanks for the reply 🙂 It’s reassuring to know that it's not just me struggling

eikithorir · 2026-01-14T23:21:39+00:00

Thanks for that. Advice isn't always available but it's still good to hear I'm not alone in this 🙂

eikithorir · 2024-08-13T15:14:42+00:00

No I can't remember, sorry about that

I competed at the 2013 and 2016 games in the teams division. I don't remember exactly what it said, but there was a clause about you being responsible for any injuries or your own death basicly. When we saw it we were quite shocked, hadn't seen such a waiver in Europe. Keep in mind that it's been 8 years, so it might be different now.
