Greetings from Ireland. Been swimming for 30 years now but have only really learnt to swim efficiently the last 5 years. All those years thinking I was a good swimmer until a decent swimming instructor showed me the error of my ways. It's very, very hard to learn to swim correctly. You have to think about every stroke and it takes more energy than an inefficient technique because when you swim correctly, you are using more muscle groups and therefore require more oxygen.
After inhaling turn the face on the water before your hand pass your face as the voice on the video says (remember not to wait for you to see your hand passing your eyes), but not in the way shown by the swimmer on the video: he is often a bit late with that, I wonder because he has to exaggerate the movement for the footage.
When I turn my head to breathe, I've noticed that my front arm starts sinking quicker, well before my recovery arm enters the water for the next stroke. My legs might be sinking too; I'm not sure. Any idea why this happens? Maybe I'm lifting my head rather than just rotating it like in the video?
They! the "S" pull!! I was taught that in high school on my swim team!
“Keep your body as flat in the water as possible” – how do I actually control that please, what can I do to achieve this?
Good experience
💗👍
lol
seeing freestyle swimming likes very easy, but i myself swim in the swimming pool really hard
Good to know how retarded most us swim compared to this.
Kicking is a task for me…
"Keep your body in the water as flat as possible" – proceeds to draw curved line

When I turn to breathe, my body sinks as I dip my head back to the water. I would then struggle to get to the surface 😒😔
Thanks for the video guys! Helped a lot a new Brazilian swimmer 🏊🏻♀️😉
Nice arm technique. If only my shoulder would allow my elbow to stay high.
Wonderful video. Does anyone know the difference between this technique and the Shaw method?
it is one of the best videos i have seen
Agree with you ! If you have a good technique using the right muscles and swim with your entire body you burn so many calories !!!!
Still takes me 20 seconds to swim 25m. Might as well be dead.
I notice that I very often tend to have my legs deeper in the water, so they drag me down. Any tips on how I can fix this?
Cool tx!
Well-demonstrated. I appreciate, thank you !
How does one bring out their head out of the water to breathe and continue? Whenever I try to breathe I stop swimming completely
