I commented on this video two weeks ago but just wanted to come back and tell you that mostly because of this tutorial, I can now swim front crawl and breathe with ease. It's unbelievable. I'm 36 and started to swim about 45 days ago, and it's been a blast. I've also learned the backstroke to a similar degree. I can't push myself forward with the frog kick yet, so breaststroke doesn't really work, but I'm working on it. Next is dolphin kicks. I wrote all this to tell everyone to just trust the instructions and don't give up. No matter the age or injuries you might have, it's possible to learn how to swim in a short period of time . Good luck everyone and thank you Rocket

[@RocketSwimming]

That's incredible progress in such a short amount of time! It's truly inspiring to hear how much you've achieved in just over a month. Your dedication is paying off, and it's fantastic to hear that my video played a part in your success. Keep up the fantastic work, and don't worry about the breaststroke and dolphin kicks - with your determination, you'll get there too! Thank you for sharing your journey and encouraging others not to give up. If you ever need more tips or guidance, feel free to reach out. Keep swimming strong!

[@babackd.6485]

@@RocketSwimming thank you so much man. Your instructions are incredibly accurate and for someone like me who is all about details, they do wonders. I have a question if you'd be so kind to help: I Just learned the 2 beat kick for freestyle but I'm confused about the 4 kick pattern. Should I do three kicks on the side that I breathe and one on the other side or is it vice versa? There are videos on KZbin that show both.

[@RocketSwimming]

@@babackd.6485 Thanks a lot for your kind words! I'm glad to hear that the instructions are helping you out. In general, a common pattern is to do two kicks while your face is in the water and one kick as you turn your head to breathe. This can help provide a rhythm to your stroke and keep you moving smoothly through the water. However, it's important to find what works best for you and feels most comfortable. 'd suggest experimenting with different kicking patterns during your practice sessions and see what feels most natural and efficient for you. Over time, you'll find the rhythm that works best for your stroke technique and breathing pattern. Keep up the great work, and feel free to reach out if you have any more questions!

[@babackd.6485]

@@RocketSwimming alright, I'll do just that. Thanks for helping me out and your encouraging words as well. I'll start the butterfly stroke after getting comfortable with the freestyle kicking patterns. It'll be fun to learn all four strokes in two months time. Funny how I was terrified of the deep end just a few weeks ago 😅

This is awesome as usual. I tried to do breathe every three strokes, but hyperventilated and would get dry mouth. I will do the breathe every second stroke, which is on one side for one or two laps, then switch breathe on the other side every two strokes for one or two laps. That is how I want to work both sides, instead of breathing every third stroke, which did not seem to work for me.

You're welcome! As for swimming in open waters.. I would suggest you to only swim in a pool as it's safer than open water. Use lifejacket when swimming in an open water and there should be a professional looking over you all the time! Stay safe.

[@vishaljoshi838]

Hi Johnny, found your video useful and would like your advice as to why I struggle with inhaling whether 2/4 stroke. 4 stroke gives me more body balance and less sinking… but problem of choking when trying to inhale remains irrespective. I have been practising for more than 3months, till date not able to do front float as well.. thanks

[@RocketSwimming]

Thanks Vishal! For your breath, take a step back and practicing breathing standing in place in the water. Grab the wall and lower your head underwater. Then practice the stroke on the wall with your breaths. Be more intentional about breathing out (exhaling). I’ve found adults forget to exhale so eventually they feel “stuck” because they can’t get anymore air in. Lastly, roll more onto your side or back so you have more access to cleaner air. A lack of rotation will keep your face too close to the water where more droplets can ruin your execution. As for floating on your back, make a big Y with your arms and kick your feet. Both your arms and your legs should stay up but if they don’t, send me a video of your attempts and I’ll analyze them for you for free! Let’s rock it! - Jonny Rocket (creator)

Thanks so much for this video, i have a question about breathing. Should one be constantly exhaling underwater and only inhale when you come up for the breath, because you mentioned to exhale powerfully before coming up for the breath. So im confused about when i should be exhaling and inhaling...some people say exhaling should be constant ehile under water...

[@EXPLORADVEN]

[@RocketSwimming]

Thank you so much!

[@zainabshah1634]

First of all thank you so much. Your videos have helped me so much. I am a first time swimmer in my 30s. I have a phobia of deep waters and i am trying now to overcome that. I struggle so much with breathing. I take my head to the side and think that i have taken a breath but i can’t continue as i get out of breath immediately and stop mid way panicking. As per my swim coach, i am inhaling only down to my throat and not all the way to the lungs and thats why i keep going out of breath. What are the extra tips or tricks you’d give someone like me?

[@RocketSwimming]

You're very welcome, and kudos to you for taking on this challenge and working to overcome your fear of deep water! Make sure to exhale fully underwater, maintain a steady rhythm in your breathing, and consider using a kickboard or snorkel to help with your stroke and breathing coordination. Keep practicing, and you'll improve over time!

[@lychihan]

Thanks for your video, I just wondering if I turn for breath only one side, is that will cause my body wellness lose balance?

[@RocketSwimming]

You're very welcome, and thank you for your question! Turning to breathe on only one side can potentially affect your body's balance in the water. This is because it can create an imbalance in your stroke, causing you to swim slightly off-kilter. To avoid this, I would recommend practicing bilateral breathing, which means breathing on both sides during your swim. This will help you maintain a more even stroke and improve your overall balance in the water. It may take some practice to get used to breathing on both sides, but it's definitely worth it in the long run. Keep up the good work, and happy swimming!

[@melissa3407]

Another great video. Thank you. Question: When you breathe to blow out air, are you blowing from your mouth and your nose or just your mouth?

Ok so I noticed today that the side breathing is way better if I apply that rrrrrreach. So do mention it. I got it from another video of yours. And also mention the relaxed hand and the pull of water with the base of palm and not with the fingers. Promising again 🎉

[@RocketSwimming]

Great observation about the side breathing and the "rrrrreach"! That technique can definitely help improve your side breathing. I'm glad you found it helpful from one of my previous videos.

Try to pull with elbows instead of shoulders and whole arms, you only need half of energy. I learned this in soccer, kick with my knee and the foot is just following through. It’s faster and stronger.

[@LavenderAnime211]

My problem is once I take one of my hands from the front, I feel off balance and my legs sink. I cannot do the arm movement at all. I’ve been doing beginner lessons for about 3-4mths now and I feel so hopeless 😢

[@RocketSwimming]

Are you kicking from your hips? Try to keep your core tight and kick from your hips. Keep your head down and look straight at the bottom.

[@dollypathak7948]

I tend to sink while hand rotation, and this happen more when I try side breathing. In hand rotation, it feels my hands and arms are stuff, if I try to listen them.. I am most likely to sink. Do suggest your solution for the same

[@RocketSwimming]

When you rotate your hand make sure you kick harder/faster and also do the rotation gently. Just rest your hand forward when your hand is above the water. When inside the water you have to apply force to push as much water as possible to go forward. You can also send your swimming video to [e-mail] so we can analyze it and give you tips. 😀 - Niraj (CDO)

I really appreciate your explanation ! None clearer ! Even so, I continue to have a problem in freestyle. First, I am a 61 year old male and trying to learn freestyle so I can do laps. My problem : I can do pretty good freestyle while using fins or a pool buoy between my thighs. No fins or no pool buoy the stroke and kick are fine but when I attempt a breath everything falls apart. I have one eye in the water and one eye out. I have part water in my mouth but that's ok as I breath over the water that's there no problem ( with fins or buoy ) - why do I fall apart when the fins or buoy are taken away ?? Thank you !!!

[@RocketSwimming]

Thank you for your comment, and I'm glad that you found my explanation helpful! Learning freestyle can be challenging, especially if you're starting later in life. It's great to hear that you're making progress with fins or a pool buoy, but I understand that you're having trouble without them. One possibility is that the added buoyancy from the fins or buoy is making it easier for you to keep your body in a horizontal position, which can help you maintain a steady breathing pattern. When you take them away, you may be struggling to keep your body level, which can make it harder to breathe properly. Another possibility is that you may be tensing up or holding your breath when you try to breathe without the aids. This can cause your stroke and kick to become uncoordinated, making it more difficult to breathe effectively. To improve your freestyle without the fins or buoy, I suggest focusing on your body position and relaxation in the water. Practice floating on your front and back, and work on keeping your body level with a slight downward tilt toward your feet. As you swim, try to stay relaxed and exhale continuously into the water. When you turn your head to breathe, keep one eye in the water and one eye looking forward, and try to take a quick, efficient breath without disrupting your stroke or kick. Remember to be patient with yourself and keep practicing. It may take time to develop the necessary skills and coordination for freestyle without aids, but with dedication and persistence, you can get there!

Hi, I'm learning to swim freestyle. I'm having hard time trying to breathe. My coach often asks me to try to breathe by lifting head up in front. But this strains my neck muscle. I've seen your videos and trying to breathe from side. However i feel my extended arm sinks while breathing and I'm unable to continue after that. I feel my head doesn't rise up and unable to take sufficient air. Im also exhaling before breathing.

[@RocketSwimming]

Hi there! Breathing can be a challenging aspect of learning freestyle, but with practice, you'll get the hang of it. If lifting your head strains your neck, it's a good idea to focus on side breathing instead. To improve your side breathing technique, try the following tips: 1: Rotate your body: As you reach forward with one arm, rotate your body slightly to the side. This allows your mouth to clear the water for breathing. 2: Timing is key: Coordinate your breathing with your arm stroke. When one arm is extended forward, turn your head to the side and take a breath. 3: Relax and exhale: As you turn your head to breathe, exhale gently into the water. This helps to release any built-up air and makes inhaling easier. If your extended arm sinks while breathing, it could be due to an imbalance in your body position or timing. Focus on maintaining a streamlined body position and keeping your core engaged to support your stroke. Remember, practice makes perfect! Keep working on your technique, and with time, you'll find a breathing rhythm that works best for you. Don't hesitate to seek feedback from your coach or consider working with a qualified instructor for personalized guidance. Happy swimming! 🏊‍♂️😊

Yup, I still need to fix my breathing and aside turning so that I don’t get tired. That’ll take some practice. I probably would take some coaching in the spring/summer.

I'm having trouble taking in the breath. I blow bubbles but when I go out with my head I can't breathe. Could it be that I am tired ? I do not know . Can you help please.

[@wafaamostafa739]

Me too same problem. Can you help please

[@RocketSwimming]

I will suggest you to start breathing out as soon as you start your hand rotation and once your mouth is about to get out of water your exhaling should complete. All you have to do is inhale as quickly as possible. Tip: Practice breathing in and out in a bath tub or bucket of water. It is possible that you can't breath because of the how the water feels on your face. Let me know once you practice. - Niraj (CDO)

How much are you supposed to exhale during free style?

[@RocketSwimming]

It can be your personal choice but it's recommended to exhale completely and breathe in. You need to intake fresh oxygen for your muscles to perform properly. A lot of carbon dioxide in your body can generate lactic acid and it gives you burning feeling in your muscles. Think of breathing as normal activity. Don't stress too much about it. It's just like walking or running. - Niraj (CDO)

I started swimming very recently but most of the while turning to the sides most of the time I am drinking water not taking breath properly

[@RocketSwimming]

Make sure you blow out like a whale and breathe behind you a little bit. - Niraj (CDO)

[@manjuljohn]

@@RocketSwimming understood, I was not blowing out properly, today could do much better , tried how that is explained in the video, much better..thank you so much 🙂

Our instructor asked me to try floating with noodle today, I had a long standing fear for water, so he had a real hard time training me...with your videos, it was much comforting...still not so ready to remove noodle and trying to float even though I can do front crawl... thank you so much for the videos and explanations and your quick response...front crawl has improved a lot

[@RocketSwimming]

I'm loving your progress so far. Can you send us your floating video so we can evaluate the footage and give you tips? One important time I can give you is keep your chin up when floating on your back. Try to tilt your head back and look towards sky and slightly behind you. It'll prevent your body from sinking down. - Niraj (CDO)

Why do I feel weird after exiting the pool. It's like I'm going to pass out and my eyes want to close. After some five to ten minutes I'm completely normal. Has anyone felt so?

[@RocketSwimming]

Feeling a lightheaded after exiting the pool is not uncommon, especially if you've been exerting yourself in the water. This sensation can be caused by a few factors, including changes in your blood pressure, dehydration, or even just the temperature difference between the pool and the surrounding air. It's also possible that you're experiencing a bit of fatigue from your swimming session. Make sure you're staying hydrated before, during, and after your swim. Take breaks as needed, and listen to your body if you start to feel unwell. If you continue to experience these sensations or if they worsen, it's a good idea to consult with a medical professional just to rule out any underlying health concerns. Remember to always prioritize your safety and well-being when swimming, and don't hesitate to take it easy if you're not feeling quite right. Take care, and happy swimming! 🏊‍♂️😊
