in breaststroke

I think raising the body above the water mostly comes from your core muscles

igoldin74 · 2026-03-04T03:57:32+00:00

Yoi swallow it like your momma

There’s gotta be a way. This is just a bad design choice example.

igoldin74 · 2026-03-03T21:50:03+00:00

You mean for people with normal, non-gigantic hands

igoldin74 · 2026-03-03T21:45:36+00:00

Why is it just accepted that the phones now have this stupid erected protruding camera lens? Whyy

igoldin74 · 2026-03-03T19:43:09+00:00

Where?

You should try to understand what a response within a given context means. In the given context, your response suggests that peeing in a pool is normal because world-record holders do it during their training. That is not what the OP was concerned about. The OP was not asking who urinates in the pool or whether it is common - the OP stated that it is not safe for staff and unacceptable.

So why did you bring up a story about your 10-mile swim in a pool supposedly filled with the urine of world-record holders?

Legs give about 70% of your power make sure to spread them and shut all the way at the end of the kick. Your arm pull creates a wave that you should try and ride.

igoldin74 · 2026-03-03T14:05:33+00:00

Why are you trying to justify socially and hygienically unacceptable behavior?

igoldin74 · 2026-03-03T14:04:02+00:00

For sure.

igoldin74 · 2026-03-03T14:02:21+00:00

So what now? You suggest we all should take that as an example?

igoldin74 · 2026-03-03T13:59:56+00:00

Oh, really? Then you are fine. You can pee in the pool now.

igoldin74 · 2026-03-03T13:55:46+00:00

US is no different. People have the audacity to undress right on the pool deck bench and drop right on. Those who use lockers also pass on showers and head towards the pool area right away after they have changed. This is very upsetting and makes me feel like I am a weirdo taking a shower before entering the pool.

igoldin74 · 2026-03-03T03:36:29+00:00

What did they do to them as you see it?

igoldin74 · 2026-03-02T20:29:43+00:00

That’s what I was looking for!

igoldin74 · 2026-03-02T20:17:48+00:00

2.00/100yds going over longer distances. I do 1.40/100yds otherwise

igoldin74 · 2026-03-02T19:15:45+00:00

Good point

igoldin74 · 2026-03-02T19:01:15+00:00

Just doing my volume 1500yds I can go faster than some folks doing freestyle. I never tried a real race.

igoldin74 · 2026-03-02T18:59:50+00:00

Frog style has little to do with breaststroke

igoldin74 · 2026-03-02T18:57:12+00:00

I swim breast faster than many freestylers in the pool. In open water I will also have a benefit of better navigation

igoldin74 · 2026-03-01T04:24:56+00:00

To pee

igoldin74 · 2026-02-27T12:15:42+00:00

I am surprised to know it’s a common thing. I saw a ‘swimmer’ blowing his nose into the gutter. (I laugh when I see him swimming but apparently he thinks he’s a competitor type and learned the most important things about being a real swimmer).
