As a lifeguard instructor myself, Im happy to see you debunk the myth that you need to be on the swim team in order to try out. Hell I can't even do butterfly and I teach the damn class!

i have my test in a few hours :( im stressed

update: I PASSED :)))

This is really accurate and helpful for people that want to become lifeguards. It’s so true that no one does saves by the book. Had multiple saves and I only cared about getting the victim out of the pool ASAP.

[ZombieButtcheek]

These are all really good tips. I remember training for the course because I never did swim team and I was so scared. Now I can do 300s no sweat and I'm about a year into the job. You really don't need to be an outstanding swimmer as long as you can pass the requirements.

Also what you said about rescues is true too, I saved a little girl from our competition pool shallow end just by literally grabbing her with my two hands and lifting, because it doesn't matter how you get the out as long as they're okay and you're okay.

Awesome video!

i just recertified this past weekend and his point about making the rescue if not according to the technique is right on. when it comes down to saving a life, do the best you can and get them to safety. i'm 80 years old been in aquatics for 65 years and it doesn't get easier as i found out yesterday, the treading, hauling a body out of the water on a backboard, cpr for 5-10 round compressions, retreiving the brick, etc. was somewhat demanding. iam a personal trainer, swim coach and competitior but i was spent after the weekend. they are great jobs and can be very rewarding.

it’s 5 am and my test is tomorrow and i’m rly nervous

[katiefergieson]

because i’m not an experienced swimmer i’ve been taking private lessons and it’s boosted my confidence sooo much for lifeguarding. i definitely recommend to people who don’t have much experience swimming!! just tell the person you are interested in doing lifeguarding and they will instantly help you with what skills you’re gonna need and more!

Completely agree with the Swim Team thing (even though I have been on a swim team for about a year now). The only thing that swim team might do for you is make the pre-test a little easier.

[jacquelinehernandez]

I’m nervous as hell right now I have my test in a few days and I’m stressed I’m not sure on what to be ready for

[connorborgfjord]

In my lifeguard test we had to swim 500 and 600 meters

[quengren]

I have my test in 3.5 hours! So nervous :(( I didn’t do too well in training yesterday and that’s got me on my toes, remembering things for CPR and putting on gloves has also been difficult

[kemartv]

It's my first time doing the training

[Crispyinthecutt]

I’m about to take my course today and treading water is my biggest problem I Been practicing for it and still can’t do it🤦🏾‍♂️

[saipanthagani]

It is 12:30 in the morning and my test is in a few hours, and I feel kinda nervous and scared

[mollyludwick]

why am i so nervous when i’ve been swimming on swim team for 7 years

[sujstet]

i can swim above 5000 yards front crawl or breast without stopping but i cannot tread water.... Im learning to tread.... i can also do backstroke and back float easily

[wingmangaming]

6:00am heading to the pool for my earlier practice at 10:00am then test at 4:00pm. I am a recreational diver so lots of swimming practice but still really nervous. Your tips have helped calm me down but i still won’t calm down till I pass the final test.

I was supposed to get trained in March, but it got canceled (stupid corona), but I’m so excited to get trained and be a lifeguard finally!
