I was always told to do bi lateral breathing and I hated it. Didn’t think breathing the same side every two strokes was even an option. Game changer. Wouldn’t have thought it was okay without this channel!

This is great! Please do one for butterfly too.

Excellent summary containing all the key points, with a nice little history intro to boot.

Cool channel! 👍
But why you don t make the vid with cautions to the begginers, as a lot of things may harm the begginers, such as: (for very beghiners with no flexibility)
-high elbow recovery = shoulder pain
-early vertical forearm = shoulder pain
-active legs kicking = knee and foot pain
-core rotation = spine pain
-one eye in water while breathing = water in mouth, as at low beginner speeds the is no wave etc.

Honestly I do swimming semi competitively but I didn't know there were beats for frontlick and I needed this bc fc is my worst stroke😅

[ParaDiddle]

I thought my freestyle was ok, then some waterpolo guys and swimmers get in the pool and destroyed my thoughts about myself. THEY ARE LITERALLY FLYING I WANT THAAAT.

Regarding rotation. What ever side you breath to & assuming you only breath on one side, not both, are you supposed to rotate left & right or just rotate on the side you breath?

I learned backstroke in about 30 minutes with zero prior swimming experience but im still struggling to learn freestyle after over a month because of my poor breathing technique 😮‍💨

Great video. You mentioned tips to swim faster, but I'm not interested in racing or speed. I want to just swim slow and steady. Any tips for that?

Do not, I repeat, do not put crying baby sounds. I have a baby at home and this scared the bejesus out of me.

My kick for some reason doesn’t feel right, still working on it I have the Powerfin Pro 2 to try to correct it. I am a new swimmer and have a goal of being able to freestyle 500 meters in 12:30, how realistic is this?

Nice presentation ilike the new style of montage the girl's voice is suitable

Please just let one person talk, it is getting really dizzy for me.
