GoSwim GoldFreestyle - Underwater Free
9 commentsBeing able to focus on one specific aspect of your stroke sometimes takes isolation. Swimming under water certainly gives you that.
Roque Santos - Breaststroke Breath Control
Olympian Roque Santos answers questions from our app users and website. Today's question deals with more ideas on breath control off the turns.
Main Set Wednesday - March 9, 2011
Good practice with the masters group today, and a nice opportunity to get some nice training in, and alternate that with some up tempo stroke.
Swimming Pics of the Week - February 10, 2011
The question is... how long are you actually taking air IN when you breathe on freestyle?
Main Set Monday - February 7, 2011
Not a major main set this morning, mostly short sets with a lot of focus, which I like.

Freestyle - Avoiding the "Fall"
While there are many examples of great swimmers loping, or falling, into the water after a breath, for most of us normal swimmers, it's a much better idea to maintain a direct and stable body position while swimming freestyle.
Swimming Picture of the Week - September 16, 2010
These pictures are of the pool where we've just started swimming.
Turns - Stable Pushoffs
When many younger and older swimmers come off a flip turn, they're sometimes disoriented and push off incorrectly. In order to learn a great line, and stable exit from a flip, here's a good sequence to help.
Swimming Set of the Week - June 18, 2010
This week's set can be used as an aerobic recovery set. For a more aggressive workout, pick one of the tracks (either the pulls or the IMs) and push those swims.
Breaststroke - Breath Control
To really excel at breaststroke, you need to be able to control your breathing...and not just the breathing in, but also the breathing OUT!
Swimming Pic of the Week - May 20, 2010
This week's Pic is a moving picture. Doing our best to illustrate the speed at which the hands and head need to move forward after the breath in breaststroke. Tell us how we (me) did. It's a work in progress... thanks to Roque Santos.

Sometimes what you crave is just a mellow hour at the pool. Time to recover and maybe work on your EVF.
