How To Swim Perfect Freestyle in 2025

[@FlingusTheBingus]

As a casual swimmer who wants to swim more, this really helps. I love swimming and because of this I now know that my catch wasn't the problem and that it was my body position

[@nancytripp2025]

I nominate this is 2025 Oscar for swim youtube teaching documentary: original generosity.

[@thegch]

notes:look down 1 eye 1 ear from mouth contolled exhale from nose bilateral the catch should be smooth and reach all you can make v in arm when its in water make your fingers normal but powerfull , the kick amplite should be shorter knee möre straqighter pointed toes

[@logun0]

If you suggest breathing every 2 then I would also tell new swimmers to ensure they are always looking to the same side of the pool. Yes one length will be easier as they will be breathing on their dominant side, however I feel that working both sides of the body adequately is incredibly important to encourage balance. If you aren't doing this then it will affect your body roll and things will cascade from there

[@Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh]

LOL

[@joejoe-lb6bw]

I read that bilateral breathing helps so that one can swim better in ocean where waves may interfere with a single side.

[@thatlittlevoice8292]

It's hard to find a consensus on bilateral breathing, but I do it anyway. Every two just feels like a bit much.

[@HMZGaming09]

He literally said bilateral breathing as an option but it requires more effort. Breathing every 2 helps with rhythm and I agree with him

[@TheGavranatar]

​@HMZGaming09yeah but the guy is saying to do one length looking to the right, and coming back looking to the left.

[@fauxz3782]

This guy never feels to let us forget that water is 800 times more dense than air

[@miguender486]

Fun Fact: water is 800 times more dense than air

[@VR-jg3sp]

Hahahaha. I wanted to start a drinking game of taking a shot every time Fares says the "800" phrase". But I soon realized I'd be PLASTERED by the end of *any* video he does! You keep doing YOU, though, Fares! -Lippy

[@MKL_D]

Thanks Ali G.

[@matze0402]

I did the 100m intervalls for a few weeks, had to catch a breath after 25m each and continued swimming. but after max of 4 lanes I was exhausted and took 30-60s rest. Yesterday, all of a sudden I did 8 lanes in row 🎉

[@Gdrve123]

swimming every two is okay for some things but every three strokes encourages swimmers to learn how to breathe on each side and a plus bilateral breathing! ❤

[@greggassen5548]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="25">0:25</a>. OMG he said it!!!

[@leonizaaguitong5443]

Hepful video! Thanks for your detailed lecture with demo. Love it! Cant wait to apply and film myself 😅

[@nikmartin6668]

Masters and beginning swim coach here…Breathing every two strokes is a poor strategy for new swimmers. They need to be able to develop a well balanced stroke by knowing how to breathe to both sides. Many new swimmers are aspiring triathletes who will find themselves in open water where bilateral breathing is essential to manage unforeseen water conditions and course directions.

[@JJBpilot]

I like the idea of every two strokes, but... as some have said breathe to the same wall every length. That way you breathe to right side one length, the left side the next. Keeps you from getting lopsided, like one "coach" on another tri channel.

[@aneeshsharma1759]

Thanks for sharing your awesome techniques fares.I Really learn and enjoy a lot watching your videos.

[@Islam65438]

Hey faris, im 40 and started training swimming with a coach 2 months ago, iv not been in the water since i was 7 due to an almost drowning experience, so because of that iv been scared to enter the water. But iv began now and im reeally enjoying it and have started making great progress, i watch all your videos and use them to assist my swimming. Keep up the good work❤

[@CESAR-io6ob]

Great job overcoming your fear man! GOD bless you and your goals! I'm 48 and learning or trying to swim actual laps. It hasn't been easy, but it's coming along ok by watching videos and going to the pool to practice. I started last year at 47. I had a pool scare/drowning moment at 12 years old. So I can relate for sure. But on the plus side, swimming is a great sport and very rewarding. 🤜🤛💪🏊‍♂️

[@pulselx6655]

Great video screw the haters and minute critiques it was such a well done video. Fast, to the point, and very informational for us beginner swimmers, thank you!

[@Masha-pj1xu]

All true 😊 Myself swimming for 3 years now all year round for 3 hours weekly. Its difficult sport, still love it and wont stop, very challenging. Personally have a crash on double back stroke, my favourite 🤣 Thank you guys, cheers from Cyprus 💪😘

[@gerhardmuller-pw4bx]

well , you`ve done a good job, I found these things out for myself, thinking like a fish...missing is the slow motion of the grabbing arm-stroke = Push and Pull...! thanks

[@sharifahassani8653]

Thank you so much for the useful and helpful tips.

[@Greg117-dd8zj]

cheers for the tips i always forget to use my legs cause im concentrating/focusing to much on getting my breathing timing right then i forget about my legs

[@PyramidHeadChris]

This swimming didn't work in 2024, but it does this year.

[@nataliadeleon6948]

😂😂 I thought the same

[@nataliadeleon6948]

Maybe because this year the air is 800x more dense than water xd

[@LionelMessi-uy3rg]

I have a swimming gala tommorow this helped alot thanks bro

[@Bloosee]

Back to the basics for the new year.

[@aureliasam2092]

Bravo 🎉

[@Greg-i2l5h]

[@Nutcracker-j2z]

The lesson I am not gonna forget after watching this video is that the water is 800 times more dense than the air.

[@Simone-h2p]

Thank you so much for this video. Very interesting.

[@MrJessDancing]

Interesting video. Thanks. Why exhale through the nose? Why not the mouth or both mouth and nose? Just wondering.

[@DionVargas927]

Very professional tutorial video! I'm thinking about getting a better pair of waterproof bluetooth headphones for swimming, so I can listen to blogs while I learn advanced swimming. the Nank Diver2 seems to be pretty good, has anyone tried them or have any recommendations for other brands of headphones?

[@carloscssr]

This is one of the best swimming videos I've ever seen. Thank you and congratulations on ot. It's very explainable and simple 🏊🏻🚵‍♂️🏃‍♂️

[@fashiontime9145]

*Thank you for the great video!!* 🥰🥰 I have a question.. Is it just me that BREASTSTROKE feels easier to me❓❓❓? I can swim BREASTSTROKE endlessly (as long as I'm not getting cold 🙂💁‍♀) but Freestyle feels more intense and never as relaxing as BREASTSTROKE. I'd appreciate your thoughts on this

[@robohippy]

Well, swimming my over arm side stroke, I see EVERYTHING in the pool. The biggest single problem I see in freestyle, and other strokes is poor core engagement. You can not get the rotational power if your core is not properly engaged. Stand with your heels, butt, and shoulders against the wall. Slip just your fingers just behind your lower spine, then try to pin your fingers, not your whole hand, to the wall. This is proper core engagement. I do enter the water with my hand more rigid rather than relaxed, called knife hand/penetrating hand in martial arts. This is a low profile/low drag position. Before starting the pull, I do open my fingers slightly and cup my hand slightly, maybe similar to palming a basketball. It does provide a little more pull power than straight hand.

[@ADS25-e6m]

The problem I had with breathing on only one side is neck pain for 2-3 weeks, so imo bilateral works best

[@joelowens5211]

I used to run 12 to 15 miles at time 5 times a week but at 50 years of age need to preserve the joints some. I put a pool room inside our house. I have the inground endless pool where you can swim against the current and also the underwater treadmill. I currently swim for 45 minutes and then 15 minutes rest thereafter in separate hot tub. Will this training work with your app program? My goal right now is just to lose fat and increase endurance and then as fat comes off improve technique. I still run 1 to 2 times a week but recovery is 2 to 3 days. I swim everyday 10 days on and then 1 day off and go to 10 day swim again. The 45 minutes I do top swim for about 1 minute and rest about 10 seconds then do again. I also do butterfly type stroke under water and come up. I can go about 1 minute with that also then rest again. I enjoy the water and also it's my room so I do not have to wait on others or have a pool ultra chlorinated.

[@youloveboxing]

I'm out of breath after one length and have to take a break. I can't relax. Always feels like my legs are dropping. Learnt to swim last year.

[@prashantkafle4350]

What i learned is water is 800 times denser than the air. Thanks for making us remember

[@NoorKhoyratty]

Best video

[@Koga-Ed]

Why is it less advisable to breath out through the mouth instead of the nose ? I can think of a benefit when doing an underwater turn, but am not sure about other moments.

[@TheSkite575]

I'm swimming 3000 - 6000 yards 5 days a week in 500 yard intervals of 9 minutes my stroke count is 15 - 18 strokes in a 25 yard pool. I'm always looking to get faster should I shorten my sets to maybe 100 yards and push it more? 65 year old male

[@lop0998]

Yes

[@useLeonthesigma]

thx bro i sold at state on my 200 im bc of free

[@daryarazavi4479]

I don't understand, i always drink a sip of water when breathing in freestyle

[@satiready]

Booyakasha!

[@Khl8122]

Is it better to learn swimming freestyle in 2026 because it’s more modern and newer?

[@sheilakaur2025]

based on the shape and style of villas around you, I would say you are in Dubai, but swimming is not big in Dubai and no one has a multi lane pool in their home. oh, and how do I get my body to be closer to teh surface when I swim.

[@kas90500]

How do you see if someone is ahead of you? You need some swimming glasses that has some angle mirror like in submarine.

[@GoopGuzzler]

focus on yourself not others when racing

[@koolaidn3582]

But apples and oranges are still comparable right?

[@deborahkalunginsubuga1448]

Wow I now know how to swim freestyle

[@josh-439]

You would think a "pro" like this would know that there isn't a technique called "freestyle". Freestyle means to use whatever style you like. Since it's been known to be the fastest this usually leads to people using the breast crawl technique.

The pool I use has chlroinated water, and i am worried its gonna harm my hair and since my hair is long, even wearing swimming doesnt prevent my hair from getting wet, what do i do?

[@buzayehuyitbarek3877]

cool swimming even so i dont know how to swim i can still subrscribe

[@crystalnipp6805]

Put your hair up. Then get your hair wet with non-chlorinated water (you should be showering before you enter the pool) then put your cap on and that will minimize/prevent your hair from soaking up the chlorinated water. Then rinse (or wash) your hair after. That will definitely help. Also make sure your cap fits well over your long hair. You can actually get caps that are specifically for folks with long hair. I like the silicone ones best versus the cheapo latex ones. I feel like they pull my hair less and are easier to get on. Warmer too if you ever decide to adventure into open water.

[@biancanichols5833]

Yes, put your hair up, use a cap. You can also use a very light amount of leave in conditioner in your hair before putting your cap on. Of course wash, rinse and condition after swimming to help protect your hair.

[@keniamadrigal1798]

Swimmer with long hair here: wash your hair after every practice. I swim 3-4 times per week and my hair isn't damaged. I do use top quality salon shampoos, conditioner and hair mascaras. Also, getting a hydrating treatment every 4-6 months keeps your hair in optimal conditions to avoid pool chemicals from hurting it. Use sun protector if your pool is outdoors and hair oil for your ends after each wash as these are so susceptible to breaking and drying.
