Swim without getting tired

You can walk without getting tired. Swimming at a slow pace can be almost as easy as walking.

Chloe McCardel swam for 41 hours and 21 minutes (124.4 km or 77.3 miles) nonstop in the ocean. Veljko Rogošić swam 50 hours. Sarah Thomas for 54 hours. Ricardo Hoffman for 84.5 hours in a river. With the 10 steps I’m about to tell you, you can surely swim for an hour and a half without getting tired.

As a competitive swimmer and swim instructor, watching this made me realize all of the techniques we unconsciously incorporate when swimming every day. Fantastic video, great portrayal of freestyle.

I taught myself to swim just by watching youtube videos. I would watch & go to the pool to practise what I just watched. I'm a really good swimmer today & improving all the time.

A-aron was faster than Belake? No waaay!

[wailwong]

Best swimming video so far because it talks about both the physical coordination and mental calmness needed to be an efficient swimmer.

[chrishanson]

you guys are soo good at explaining things! I took up masters swimming about ten years ago with coach who narrowly missed the olympics. So, I have heard a lot of this before, but your graphics and excellent videos make me really feel it. Thanks so much.

The most important steps to improve swimming endurance: 1) use fatigue resistant core muscles to generate force needed to pull arm through water; use fatigue sensitive arm muscles from shoulder to finger tip to maintain minimal tension needed to keep the arm in a catch posture, 2) maintain horizontal body position by swimming posture, not by kicking, 3)use proper catch position, 4) rotate, not lift, the head to breath, you can find air in the trough (depression) of water near your armpit, 5) learn to swim in a straight line, 6) do not hold breath, but release air slowly following inhalation as you would during normal breathing 7) meditate while breathing, 8) keep arm and hand close to center-line of body to generate more force while minimizing swaying right and left. Using core muscles: extend right arm forward, form catch position, thrust the right shoulder backwards while simultaneously thrusting left shoulder forward and thrusting your hip to rotate your body. These thrusting core body movements pull the right arm through the water. The right arm muscles from shoulder to finger tips maintain the minimal tension needed to maintain catch position and reduce fatigue, any less tension in the arm muscles would make the arm collapse. Feel the shoulder and body rotation pull the arm through the water. Horizontal body position: lie supine (face down) in water, lower the head, extend both arms in front, lower the arms with legs horizontal. If your legs begin to sink in the water, lower your head and arms more. If you get this right, you can easily swim in a perfect horizontal position with no kicking movements. Catch position: flex arm at elbow, point palm backwards to your feet, pull arm through water keeping the palm pointed to your feet. Your palm is like the flat surface of an oar, pushing your body forward. Meditate: focus on slow breathing and minimizing muscle tension of your entire body.

I really appreciate your videos including this !! I am good at freestyle & butterfly but poor at breast stroke and long distance swimming. Your video really help me. Thank you !!

[axlr]

Thanks for these great videos. Had to give up 5-a-side at 55 and this has given me a whole new sport. Really helped me improve for distance races now in my late 60s.

I also raced and finished IM Cozumel last November (swim leg in little under an hour). I started learning to swim on March of last year. I didn't have a swim coach, so all was thanks to YouTube and a lot of practice. Your videos were some of the most helpful, mainly the Aaron series. Thank you and greetings from Mexico!

[In_Can]

Bro, day before yesterday, I was able to swim for the first time in my life. The motivation and guidance your videos provided was priceless for me in achieving my greatest bucketlist skill.
Thank you so much brother. Keep doing the good work, may God bless you.

Jumped twice a day, Reminded myself all your teachings, I came fastest here at company's PET!! ( PS- Once water was my biggest fear nd now people appreciate my speed here) thanks & keep up the Good work ❤

[muhammadputera]

I'm a beginner swimmer. Your video is the most information-packed one I've seen and I watched a ton of videos. Thanks for what you do!

[noartifacts]

I've been swimming for a month. Now i can breathe on both sides .thank you for your videos . I still get tired but i can notice the small improvements!

[treaustin]

I’m a teacher and coach and the way you explained some of these concepts was brilliant!

[yourroyalhighness]

_I think swimming must be mandatory to be included in school curricula. Anything about extreme survival is worth teaching children and students._

[oOoOoOooO]

Thank you for adding Korean subtitles. Your swimming video is so effective and fun. It helped me a lot. Please continue to make good videos.

[kingofthejungle]

Having experienced nearly drowning twice, watching your video has made me realise why I was never a confident or even competent swimmer, for someone like me, relaxing with my head underwater and my lower half not floating as it needed to caused much subconscious anxiety, which quickly manifested into very conscious anxiety, I'm definitely going to watch this video many times and practice swimming.

[flavia]

Fantastic video!!! Thank you so much for your thorough explanations. I also truly appreciate how receptive you are to feedback from those who comment. Your work is truly having a positive impact in my life. I’m taking swim lessons and also watching these videos. Wishing you continued success! 🏆

[davegeorge]

I'm a strong swimmer, WSQ in the Marines, my father on ther hand was a smooth swimmer one of very few people ive ever seen who could swim upriver ( i was raised in Oregon) almost effortlessly. Thanks for explaining this in an easy to understand manner. I'll incorporate this and see if it helps me improve!
