What Swimming Training Videos Can Teach You
2
As challenging as the sport of swimming can be,
it will always be hard to narrow down the answer
to the popular question, what should I focus
on? This is where swimming training videos come
into play. A swimming lessons video can teach
you lots of things, helping you improve your
technique. These arent necessarily in certain
order, but should go a very long way in helping
you achieve your bright goals, whether you are a
beginner or trying to go professional. Head
Positioning A swimmer should keep looking
straight down when swimming freestyle. Its
critical to keep your head down with only a small
part of the back of your head out of the water.
In addition, as you make your way through the
water, try your best not to move your head with
the rest of your body rotation.

Hand Entry Slice your hand gracefully into the
water approximately at your goggle line, and
drive it forward precisely. A lot of swimmers try
to get as much air time as they can by reaching
the hand out before entering into the water.
However, it is, in fact, more efficient to go
through the water with your hand as you rotate
from left to right. Pull The freestyle stroke
requires your hands to pull all the way back past
your hips. The final part of the stroke before
recovery with your arms coming out of the water
should be an acceleration behind you, not up
out of the water. Level of Training Swimming
training videos can teach you how to measure your
training intensity. The best way to do so is to
count your heart rate right after each swim.

You can estimate your heart rate by feeling and
counting each pulse for six seconds immediately
after each swim. Add a zero to this count, and
you will have a good estimate of your exercise
heart rate per minute. Kick Try lowering the
number of kicks you make as you train for
swimming. A swim training video teaches you how
to minimize your kick, allowing you to improve
your balance, as well as conserve your precious
energy. Technique Always remember that
technique should come before all else and if this
means swallowing a little pride to make
much-needed improvements. Just imagine how much
faster you will be for this in the long run.

Prevent your arm from crossing over One of the
most notorious bad habits swimmers do is the arm
crossing over to the opposite side on the pull.
Breathing on one side results in your other arm
crossing. Usually, this happens when one goes to
breathe out, but sometimes its just caused from
poor technique, such as over-rotating. To prevent
this from happening, make sure your head isnt
moving with the rest of your body, and try to
pull more in a straight line (with your elbow
still bent) and finishing the pull on the same
side you started. For more info, please visit
