Transform your freestyle in 33 minutes

Love these videos. In less than a year I've gone from a struggling beginner to swimming 4x400M, five times a week. The technique improvements that you highlight here have really added up. Thanks, Brenton! You're much appreciated.

This is a great summary of what I have learned from being coached. My goal, approaching 80, is to perfect the techniques of freestyle over longer distances.

1500 open water is my " go to " event, but due to cold temperature water I gravitate to heated outdoor pools, and here in Vancouver the Kits Pool is terrific.

Nice video! But I think your plant on the right is catching fire 🤣

An absolutely perfect summary! If you can do all these parts perfectly you might be the next world champion. I'll going to work on it. 😂 Thank you so much!!

thanks for the consistency of message and excellent summary Brenton

[@syedali6146]

Excellent, Brenton. After freestyle, you should also focus on Butterfly, breaststroke, & backstroke.

Our local indoor swimming pool has decided to release the 50m lanes not only for clubs but also for private visitors. I am so happy. 25m is simply too short.

Helps a lot (I'm 40 and started to get into proper swimming a year ago..)

[@jtlai9508]

Thanks. Great stuff. A lot of detail. Take time and practise to improve 😊

[@orliyah-kotelo]

Thank you ❤ please do more videos like this for the other 3 strokes. Also could you please do a video teaching scissor kick with freestyle 🎉. Your videos are high and informative!

[@ingom6397]

Tension!!! The first lap or two in the pool I always have greater tension. It affects my technique and where air goes (not deep enough). When I feel like the oxygen is lacking in my body I also tense up. It’s a nightmarish cycle of dread. I am conscious of the signs and am learning to manage dread and tension. I try not to focus on the worry, loosen up my neck and shoulders, and pretend to not needing air.

These videos are gold. Really informative and interesting. I've been following the channel since late 2023 and joined a swimming group in early 2024, my freestyle has improved massively, but still has a long way to go. Recently I've been experiencing some pain in the shoulder, my instructor watched a few lengths and noticed that I wasn't following the advise set out in the 'Train Tracks' section of the video and I was crossing over with one aim. I didn't realise I was doing this so having someone else to point it out was great. The video points out that crossing over the center line would slow the swim down, but would you expect it to led to injury? To correct this I've moved down into a slower lane and I'm focusing everything on where my hands go until it come naturally and hurts less. I'll be in the pool this week will also be paying some attention to hip rotation and straighter legs.

Thanks

[@qow2427]

Awesome...thank you! Any tips for struggles with breathing bilaterally?

[@33Jenesis]

You have to stick to practicing until you get it and know that it’s pretty much the same angle and timing on both sides. I have aside that was so unnatural to get the timing right. It took me a year of 4 days a week and lots of swallowed water and fear to finally get it right (really frustrating). I am an old newbie.

[@dominicliam2542]

Excellent video, I must ask though, the swimming trunks with the white cross. Where can I get a pair ? Thank you ! 4:20 sec

[@bineet73]

[@lastmadcow]

[@denisrafailov6056]

Brenton, what's obvious to you from this angle? I can't brake 1:40/100 kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYHdqGWXrdech5I
