How long have you been swimming? Was this video helpful for you?

[@basictalent1]

Hi, I have started swimming 1 month back. I have developed most of the skills you taught. thanks for that. however, im still swallowing water inside while breathing. How to stop this from happening?

[@Vegito_Blue2]

I'm going try them tonight

[@kristofferrydquist8384]

Great and inspirational videos. I decided to learn the crawl a few months ago and progressed very quickly. Breathing is the hardest thing to master.

[@fundacan5966]

hey, could you add a longer video in which you do everything together in the end? techniques had been very helpful but I would want to see everything slower smoother. slow-motion is also okay but without any interruption, please. thanks!

[@drrekhakumari3271]

@Skills NT what is it with the faces ??

[@jellyacc]

bonus tip is the only thing ive mastered so far haha who knew breathing can be so hard! but actually im having trouble rotating my shoulders enough in order to inhale without getting water in my mouth

[@xkcd_68868]

Same. I start panicking when water is in my mouth :(

You have helped me a lot, I just started swimming again after a few years not swimming and today I already felt improvement in my freestyle. Still need to learn it better but it’s a beginning. Thanks!

[@SkillsNT]

You are welcome! Thanks for commenting

[@leeerik1465]

Very excellent video! I think that the four tips here are the same as those in Bob Bowman’s video of freestyle tutorial. I tried to improve my bodyline, balance, and rhythm following Bowman's advices, and it really worked! Now I can swim smoother and faster freestyle.

[@SkillsNT]

Haven’t seen Bowman’s video but he knows a thing or two about coaching so good job 😅

[@adventurecraig]

Bom dia!! Thanks for the great vid. I have developed a shoulder injury and I think it is because I wasn't rotating enough. Very useful tips here guys!! Greetings from South Africa :)

[@guillaumeromain6694]

I'm trying to get my head around a good freestyle position. Your vid is very well made! thank you!

[@NickOcheredko]

Hi, thanks for the video. I have a question about the way you exhale under water. Some say it should be done through your nose, some say you should start with your nose, then connect your mouth. Some say you should exhale from both nose and mouth at the same time. And some say you should exhale through only mouth. It seems to me that there is no "correct" variant and you can use any that help you swim smooth and far. But what would be your recommendation? What are advantages and disadvantages of different exhale techniques? Thanks!

[@discospaghetti6744]

Practicing for the Royal Navy, this helps thanks.

[@mahendrasangada9487]

Thanks ☺️

[@antoniogiacomellideoliveir9361]

about breathing, i believe that if you are breathing (on freestyle) on a 2x1 fashion (1 breath every arm cycle) you can make a shallower breath than you need to do if you are breathing, let's say on 6x1 fashion (1 breath every 3 arm cyles). so, its hard to me to find the balance between speed/endurance/breathing. the same applies to butterfly which the breathing window is a way shorter. ps: i love this channel.

[@nancyenjay7966]

These videos are extremely helpful, thank you. Can you please do a detailed video on breaststroke, I'm kicking way too early and it's slowing me down. Thanks!

I have a question, is it dangerous to swim if i have had shoulder injuries. I started swimming 6 months back and have never injired it during swimming (1 year since injuring my right and 6 months since injuring my left)

1 00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:04,140 FREESTYLE TUTORIAL 자유형 교범 2 00:00:07,819 --> 00:00:11,879 The best way to learn new skill is to focus on one thing and practice it frequently. 새로운 기술을 익히는 가장 좋은 방법은, 한 가지 사항에만 집중하고 그것을 자주 연습하는 것입니다. 3 00:00:13,060 --> 00:00:18,620 The next time you swim, it is a good idea to focus on your shoulders and head position as explained on these 4 points. 다음 번 수영할 때는, 다음 4 가지 요점에 설명한 대로 어깨와 머리 자세에 집중하는 것이 좋겠습니다. 4 00:00:18,980 --> 00:00:21,560 1. Break the surface with the top of your head. 1. 정수리로 수면을 가르십시요. 5 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:26,460 Your eyes should be pointing between the surface and the bottom of the pool. 시선은 수면과 수영장 바닥 사이를 향해야 합니다. 6 00:00:30,100 --> 00:00:36,000 If you look up too much, you will create drag and your lower body will sink, creating more drag. 과도하게 위를 보면, 저항을 일으키게 됩니다. 또한 몸 아랫 부분이 내려가면서 저항이 더 많이 생기게 됩니다. 7 00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:41,900 If you look down too much you will create excess drag with your head and shoulders. 만약 과도하게 아래를 본다면, 머리와 어깨로 저항을 많이 일으키게 될 것입니다. 8 00:00:45,540 --> 00:00:47,980 2. Rotate your shoulders. 2. 어깨를 회전시키십시요. 9 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:54,900 The rotation of the shoulders is very important to prevent injuries and to pull more water with each stroke. 어깨 회전은 매번 저을 때마다 더 많은 물을 젓고 부상을 예방하는 데 있어 아주 중요합니다. 10 00:00:55,740 --> 00:01:00,780 This should be a natural rotation caused by the reaching of one arm and the recovery of the other. 한 팔은 뻗고 다른 팔은 되돌리는 동작에 의해 자연적으로 일어나는 회전이어야 합니다. 11 00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,680 3. Keep your head steady. 3. 머리를 고정시키십시요. 12 00:01:04,900 --> 00:01:08,300 If you are not breathing, then your head should be completely still. 숨을 쉬지 않을 때, 머리는 전혀 움직이지 않아야 합니다. 13 00:01:09,960 --> 00:01:14,080 This might be a challenge especially when the shoulders are rotating correctly. 어깨가 정확하게 회전하고 있을 때는 머리를 움직이지 않는 것이 특히나 어려운 과제일 수 있습니다. 14 00:01:14,420 --> 00:01:19,200 But if you focus on following the lines on the floor, it will be easier to keep your head still. 하지만 바닥에 있는 선을 따라가는 것에 집중하다 보면, 머리를 고정시키기가 쉬워질 것입니다. 15 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,400 4. Breathe during the recovery. 4. 팔을 되돌리면서 호흡하세요. 16 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:27,260 A good breathing timing can improve your stroke dramatically. 때를 잘 맞춰 호흡하면, 영법을 극적으로 향상시킬 수 있습니다. 17 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,560 The breath is short and quick. 호흡은 짧으면서 재빨라야 합니다. 18 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,020 It should take less than the arm's recovery. 팔을 되돌리는 시간보다 짧아야 합니다. 19 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:36,480 Your mouth should be twisted to one side. 한쪽으로 삐뚤어지게 입을 벌려야 합니다. 20 00:01:37,100 --> 00:01:39,680 Only one goggle should be out of the water. 한 쪽 눈만 물 밖으로 나와야 합니다. 21 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:50,660 If you turn your head too much, you will mess up the timing, your arms will be forced to slow down and you will sink a little. 만약 머리를 과도하게 돌린다면, 때맞춤은 엉크러지게 되고, 팔돌리기가 느려지면서 약간 가라앉게 될 것입니다. 22 00:01:51,540 --> 00:01:54,020 Remember to practice one thing at a time. 기억하세요! 한 번에 한 가지만 염두에 두고 연습하십시요. 23 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,680 1. Break the surface with the top of your head. 1. 정수리로 수면을 가르십시요. 24 00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,060 2. Rotate your shoulders. 2. 어깨를 회전시키십시요. 25 00:01:59,460 --> 00:02:01,480 3. Keep your head steady. 3. 머리를 고정시키십시요. 26 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:03,960 4. Breathe during the recovery. 4. 팔을 되돌리면서 호흡하세요. 27 00:02:05,420 --> 00:02:09,880 Bonus tip. Don't forget to make this face, while you put your goggles on. 비결 하나 더. 수경을 쓸 때에는 잊지 말고 이런 얼굴 모양을 하세요. 28 00:02:11,820 --> 00:02:15,680 Thanks for watching! Swim fast! 시청해주셔서 감사합니다! 빠르게 수영하세요!

I learned to swim essentially myself, I tend to keep my whole head above water to breath and struggle to keep my head underwater. Every time I swim underwater, and try and take a breath, I suck in a ton of water. Any tips?

[@huiligean6049]

I love your intro 😄

[@gautambhatta]

I have just started learning swimming. It has just been 15 lessons. I can cross the entire width holding my breath. But breathing is a tough job for me. Inhaling through mouth, turning my head on one side, taking care that one eye remains submerged and only one is out of water. I am trying to breathe in this manner for the last two days, but it is giving me problem.

[@henriki8015]

Hi Skills NT. Thanks for the excellent video :) I got one question, I always try to keep one goggle in the water when turning the head, however I am bit unsure where to look when rotating the head to the side. Should I be looking at the side of the pool or maybe a bit behind? I am very conscious of this because I really want to avoid to lift up my head during the rotation, and then maybe put it down again. Or even avoid tucking the chin down a bit, which is a bit of the same, eg. lifting a bit, then tucking the chin. Right now my solution to this has been to think that the head "floats" to the side with as little resistance as possible. Still not sure if I am doing it right.

[@SkillsNT]

+henrik i I was just analyzing that myself. I would have to analyze it and do a bit of research to be sure. I'll get you back on this

[@henriki8015]

Were you able to analyze this a bit? :)

[@anonymousreviewer169]

Apparently the analysis takes longer than a year. Please be patient lol.

[@XmilenkofanX]

The part where the video mentions that one goggle should stay in the water, your eyes should be looking to the side of the pool. This helps us practice turning the head to the side (instead of pulling it up) while not going too far. You can practice this by laying down on the side of the pool with enough of your body overhanging the edge to practice a stroke (just one arm at a time). With your head down (simulating the head's freestyle position), you begin the turning the head to the side as that arm is halfway through the catch. By the time the arm starts recovery, the head is almost in position to take a breath. Remember high elbow during recovery and look to the other edge of the pool as you inhale. I try to imagine "showing off" my armpits to the crowd during recovery to help keep my shoulder in place and arm relaxed as it begins to enter the water for the next stroke. This video repeats working on one thing at a time and there's a lot of different aspects of swimming that contribute to proper breathing during freestyle. So if at first you don't succeed, realize that eventually you'll need to hone all of these skills to help your breathing technique. If legs are sinking while you're practicing drills, use a pool buoy between the thighs so you can concentrate on the technique you're practicing without dragging the legs. As you further hone the skills, you can remove the buoy and practice while kicking.

[@leighbali3485]

Which one is correct? Rotation is coming from the shoulder or hip?

[@adonist7]

Do you exhale from your nose underwater after your breath? or do you hold it in your lugs and then exhale from your mouth when your about to breath again

[@SkillsNT]

+adonis excellent question! I hold it for a little bit. I exhale it through my nose mainly and a little bit through my mouth before taking the next breathe

[@brandonrios4484]

They taught me in highschool swimming to always be breathing out through your nose and in through your mouth when swimming

[@JtheMitch]

2 years too late, but running is a very good way to build endurance.

i get really scared and anxious and completely lose it , go psycho , when I’ll reach my feet for the ground and it’s too deep , I feel like when I’m even in water I get scared , and I have swimming tomorrow do you have a video on how to stay calm in the water!?

[@varunthingom7270]

I always drink some water is that normal?

[@penikmatbuburdiaduk7421]

It is, if you do that in purpose haha 🤣 when you accidentally drink some water on breathing, it is a sign that you need to perfect your breathing position and pay more attention to the flow of oxygen(inhale and exhale) in your body. Just make sure you have space for your mouth out of the surface to breathe normally

[@mychrome6629]

don't drink chlorine water, please.

[@reelfocusproductions989]

[@Sanatani_Neelabhra]

Bro while doing the push and glide will I have to filled my lungs with air....

[@j4genius961]

Yes it will help you stay on the surface of the water. However when U start kicking it's better to learn to breath as fast as possible because filled lungs will keep your upper body high and push your legs down ( gravidy )
