The Stroke That Broke The Internet

In the last 12 years creating Youtube videos I've had two strokes that have received a huge amount of feedback from people. Dan Smith's easy 1:10 100m free and Lukasz Wojt's Ironman Swim. Let's take a look Lukasz Wojt's stroke from underwater and see what makes him so fast.

Thank you for taking the time to put this together and sharing it. You do an awesome job of explaining each part of the stoke. I am looking forward to watching more of your videos and applying what I've learned.

Thank you for making this! I watched just before getting into the pool and mimicked all the form ques you mentioned here and managed to consistently get my 50m down from just over a minute to hovering around 55sec! I fealt like I had an epiphany in the pool today.

I'm coming up to 2.3km ocean swim so this is perfect inspiration to get me in the groove, Thank you!

This is a fantastic analysis, thank you for your videos!

Always great stuff Brenton - I watch your videos more than any others and frequently share them with swimming pals. Keep 'em coming.

Thank you so much for all of your videos. I’ve learned so much! I’ve been out of the pool for six months because of a medical issue, but watching your channel makes me feel as if I’m still a swimmer. I hope and pray I will be able to get back into the water and put into practice some of your excellent teaching. Thank you again.

Thank you for you videos. I train for half IM distance (and I'm self coached), and your videos helped me get from 2:15 to 1:51 in one month period. Keep on great work.

Man, i love your channel and how you break down effortless swimming into specific movements. For me you are the Harald Harb of swimming!

[jonnorris]

I want to add my appreciation for your channel !! Love the instructions and the video from underwater that can be slowed down to allow concentration ... Wondering if there is a way that I can learn more from you and your excellent video??

[jojijosette]

Excellent excellent video. Everything I need, everything I need to know. This is gonna my "gospel" for freestyle. I will watch this video regularly, until I get it right. Thank you so much Brenton. I swim freestyle a mile a day, best part of my day, I love it. You're the best teacher Brenton! Trust and respect.

I have done my best to imitate Dan’s style in the Easy 1 minute pace video and you’re right, I swim it at a 2 minute pace. 😆

[irondoc]

Thanks for your detailled analysis! Lukas has surprisingly more bubbles on his fingers as I expected.

[oscardelatorre]

Thanks for this tips Sir, these helps a lot!!!

Dan's swimming ❤🏊‍♂️❤. I have watched that video on a loop on a few occasions it's that GOOD!

Thank you Brenton, this is a great video 👍🏼. I’m a 40yo age group Triathlete in NSW Australia 🇦🇺 and have made some big improvements over the last few years thanks to your work. If I compare my 50m pool sprints from before I did your 5 day catch challenge to my last pool swim, I went from about 45secs/50m (1:30/100m pace) to last week I did an all out 50m sprint against my friend and apparently swam 33sec/50m (about 1:06/100m pace). This is a bit of a stand out performance without a wetsuit as I have only ever managed 35sec/50m with a wetsuit (when the 50m outdoor pool was colder). I’m hoping to try out another one of your programs when we recover 💰 from Christmas and when I can get access to a GoPro for video analysis of my stroke as I’d like to be able to hold the faster pace for longer. Eg my pace drops significantly over the 100m (1:18), 200m (3:00), 400m (6:40) and 1500m (23:00) These are in the pool without a wetsuit.

Great content and explanation. More content please 🙏

Hi Brenton, after watching this video, I went to the pool this morning and I have swum my usual 1000m.
My pace was 9 seconds per 100m faster than last week! I almost didn’t believe I had completed 1000m as this was faster than last week’s time for 950m, but I checked my time at each 250m point and was on that pace consistently throughout. Thank you so much for your tips and commentary on swimming. You are amazing!

[kmonnier]

Wow! So dense, but but very good simplistic explanations.
