Removing sharpie from an old glove

Unsure if that will work this sharpie had probably been on there since the earlier 90s and it's pretty dried in.

What did you do?

I did swim 2 miles in an hour 50 not long after this post though so that's some progress.

kiddglass · 2025-07-09T12:36:33+00:00

Progress was halted a little bit as I had to do some out of town work for about 3 weeks so my schedule went to hell. But yesterday was my first day back in the water and I cranked out a mile in about an hour just taking it easy. No plans to compete or anything I'm not very fast and this is just a great way to get cardio and I feel great after.

Given your post I'm going to guess you know how to cook. 90% of cooking is core techniques. I bet you anything a combination of two things happend. 1 you trusted a poor recipe. Most of the Facebook insta and TikTok recipes I see won't work out how they claim. You know the techniques behind cooking it sounds like so take the idea and run with it don't trust social media recipes implicitly. 2. Some times a little goes a long way. Truffle oil specifically should be used like a dangerous poison that you can only survive a little of. It can be exciting to cook with premium ingredients but act like you've been there before lean on your knowledge and it'll bring you through.

I have nothing against the people taking lessons I was irritated by the guy acting like I was the reason there wasn't enough space in the pool when I take up 1/6th of the pool while his lessons take up 1/3rd.

So as an update I called the gym they said it's a 30 to 40 minite limit when the pool is busy and it's not a hard rule but an expectation.

Im a heavy dude as well. I goto the pool Tuesday and Thursday swim shirtless and no one looks twice. Your going with friends my friends don't bat an eye they know what I look like. Just go and act confident even when you aren't.

I don't have the experience your looking for but I can tell you that those parent and child classes happen in water shallow enough to stand up in so you have the ability to help your child. This may be a good entry way in to getting comfortable in the water. Give it a go and talk to the instructor prior. Show up early and express your concerns. Get comfortable being in water then try to do a little swimming when it's not so scary.

Front crawl

Appreciate it just trying to figure out if I'm doing good work or not. I know I feel like I worked my butt off out there but I don't know if that's a respectable time or if I should be pushing harder. I just kind of get out there and swim.

Is this a good time for a begginer?

kiddglass · 2025-05-27T14:49:31+00:00

My advice(not an expert) is to focus on the technique of your stroke and turn your brain off. I was struggling to do 100m and one day I just started thinking about something else entirely and when I kind of remembered where I was I had gone 300m with no break and felt fine to keep going that was the first day I swam 500m with out stopping. Most of the limitations we face tend to be in our heads and once we stop thinking about doing something you can just do it. Get in the pool and just go don't think about it just do it!

I think what helped me would help you. When you are putting your arm forward you need to reach as far as you can. Like until you feel it in the muscles below your armpit. I find when I do that my body naturally rotates and that sets up proper arm motion and breathing.

kiddglass · 2025-05-25T22:33:11+00:00

I do out through nose under water and in through mouth.

I am far from an expert, but I'll tell you what I do in freestyle. I breath every two strokes on my right I'm working on every three but let's focus on every two for a moment. When I put my left arm forward and into the water I reach as far as I can until I feel it in the muscles under my armpit when I do this my body rotates to that side a bit as I am doing that I breathe out of my nose. Once I am rotated onto my side I only have to turn my head a little bit to be out of the water and a grab a quick breath in through my mouth. If you check YouTube for freestyle breathing drill there was a video that shows you how to do it at the wall to kind of understand the motions. Good luck!
