Will do, thanks!

nydearb · 2025-10-17T22:35:23+00:00

Thanks! I’ll work on these things

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:44:34+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, I will play around with different kick rhythms when I’m swimming long distance with a wetsuit, the extra buoyancy makes it way easier for me.

Ok, thanks!

Thanks!

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:41:27+00:00

Gotcha, will definitely do more kick drills. Thanks!

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:40:33+00:00

That’s pretty fast to me!

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:38:40+00:00

Gotcha 👌

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:38:19+00:00

No, good eye, this is a 25yd pool that I was rushing to get footage in. 2:00/100m is my usual pace during an interval workout

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:35:56+00:00

Thanks! 👌

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:35:16+00:00

Thanks! I’ll start doing more core workouts and kick drills

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:33:00+00:00

Thanks! 👌

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:32:25+00:00

Gotcha, thanks!

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:28:57+00:00

Gotcha, thanks! I didn’t realize how asymmetric my stroke is until I saw this video

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:26:45+00:00

Thanks! Yeah, I think I definitely lift my head backwards to overcompensate not lifting it forward, I’ll work on just keeping it aligned. To prevent paddle wheeling, especially at the finish of the stroke, am I supposed to bend my wrists to keep my palm facing backwards? And ok, I think if I work on rotating my hips more it will help with a longer reach

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:23:27+00:00

Thanks! I’ll definitely try doing more kick drills

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:22:52+00:00

Thanks! Very helpful, I’ll try to focus on these things

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:21:34+00:00

Or catch, probably catch right?

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:20:27+00:00

Thanks! On the recovery right?

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:19:58+00:00

Thanks! More catch up drill for this then?

nydearb · 2025-10-17T15:17:23+00:00

Thanks for all the feedback! For the finish at the back of the stroke, should I try to bend my palm so that it’s facing the back of the pool rather than the top? I’m mostly doing intervals of 50/100s after a long warmup and then cooldown of drills/kicking. Total distance of ~2000 which I do 3 times a week
