[JazzyCreates]

Hey guys I have pretty bad ears, like if I go under 8 ft my ears start to pop pretty bad. Will this effect me in any way because I'm leaning towards infantry.

[claziczhotz]

@JazzyCreates infantry dnt have to swim very deep if not they dnt swim at all unless u go spec forc/ops.

[dylanevans97]

[magsandtay]

Rubbish

[Murcielago247]

why not go for Recon Jimmy? your a dolphin lol

[KHURRAM2371]

how do you open your eyes in the water and dive without closing your nose with your fingers cuase it always gets stuck up and i hate it!!

[sharksfan3939]

@KHURRAM2371 As far as the eyes go, get used to it and deal, or wear goggles. And for closing your nose, if you're diving from a high point you don't want to hold your nose or else you might break it when you hit the water. Just blow out your nose when you hit

[KHURRAM2371]

@sharksfan3939 THANK YOU I TOOK YOUR ADVICE!

[sharksfan3939]

@KHURRAM2371 No problem glad I could help!

[mrhaallooo1]

WHAT IS YOUR TIME IN 50 METER FREESTYLE?

[AzXpunk]

Yea JimmyDShea has one of the best instructional video I've seen. He's very clear and simplistic in explaning the details of swimming. Plus he puts a lot personality into his instructions as well as providing the music. Pretty Cool. Its been 4 years and I still suck at swimming but never the less i still keep practing. LOL thanx Jimmy

[isaacsxbomb]

Why do you glide for sooo long in your breast stroke?

[Meoldson]

@isaacsxbomb Well I hate to put words into Jimmy's mouth, but it's because a long glide is a lot more efficient and faster.

[Paulita2910]

I am amazed by your swimming techniques. thanks a lot for uploading these videos. I am attending a scientific diving course and have to get my lifeguard certification in order to participate in the scientific diving. anways, I never had professional swim training, so my technique really sucks.in fact, a few weeks ago I didn´t really know how to swim freestyle stroke. but then you came hahaha.I just wanted to tell you, that you are really helping people out there.greetings from germany and thx!

[Kingdonomics]

Thanks for the uploads, mean, been swimming for a month, only just gaining strength now, hard work but very rewarding, keep up the good work man.

[SerenityMoon92]

[marianneogmartine]

Introduction What is the name of the song ?

[mojomartha]

Thanks so much for these swimming videos. My daughter is 5 and half and the best swimmer in the recreation program here. She wanted to learn more and your videos are like a stroke workshop for her -- lots of helpful tips she can immediately use to improve and refine her strokes. Her coordination is getting better every day and tips like yours are a huge help.  You rock!

[csokilany]

your videos have helped me learn the breast stroke. thanks so much!

[johhnyfasnazzy]

[xtinevidz]

i saw your other swimming videos too and you're a really good instructor!! i like the 'zipper' drill...i'll be working on that to help keep my elbows high. I've had plenty of instructors who can swim well, but can't explain the technique well or give good tips as well as you have done. do more swim videos!

[bigc0225]

R. Kelly in the background. Sweet. lol

[F35Mastergun]

Dam bro i saw all of you videos and you have taught me what my fellow coaches have failed to do! Thanx and I hope you keep on making vieos because I am still waiting on that part 2!

[agbons2000]

Thanks. Much thanks. You've been great. I started swimming late in life. Your ideas are great.

[MrJonnyboyification]

i am strongest at breast stroke and freestyle. butterfly feels impossible to me

[jgq85]

What's the length of that pool you're swimming in? 25 m? 50 m?

[lvcamvn]

Thanks for your videos! I am going swimming right now!

[TallHungarian]

I love this . . .

[R1p1tup]

Disagree...

Some people have the raw talent...

I would know for a fact.

[Kinzer007]

you were black until 4:20

[bbgurl22ful]

@Kinzer007 haha

[dhtran20]

It's amazing of what you do. Thank you, you two for the lessons. The recorder too.

[atomsions]

i dont get the zipper part...... are we meant to recover like 'unzipping' while doing freestyle????? is it the standard practice????? because in the first scene jimmy didnt recover his arms like a zipper.......

[GMZTORP]

@atomsions No, that's a drill...you are not meant to recover like a zipper but you shall recover with your elbow above your hands...that drill helps to acheive that kind of recovery more "naturally" plus, it helps rotating your body more naturally too.

[Jacob0213]

What's the name of the first song

[runningupthathill]

I just love your swim lessons! I show them to my kids..they listen to you more than me! My son looks up to you!

[sniperom1980]

[flyingastronomer]

thanks Jimmy , very helpfull :-)

[rawness90]

Okay, so I have a question. In the marines, do you only have to only know the free style stroke?

[onlyplayingme]

Check out some of my swim vids!

[navchra]

[xiyerx]

[CARSandBIKES9]

true inspiration mate! ;)

[jamesm3]

great job!!! thanks I learned so much. will be implementing your tips right away.

[Gentrone]

Hey thanks for sharing this. I recently started swimming lessons (after 2 years of no practice at all) and I think I'm doing pretty well so far. You have inspired me to excel in this great sport. Thanks again.

[jackbeanie]

Jimmy, I just watched some of your videos, you are a funny guy, but what strike the most from you, is that you can tell that you have a happy soul and a good heart. It is sad to know that great people like you have to go to war. God bless your soul. You make me smile.

[lilcruser]

this is some great stuff for boot camp bro...

whats the basic things i need to know to pass the swimmimmg part at boot ? thanks

[MetaKittie]

If you can't swim, you're going to have to learn there. Don't waste your time; learn before you go. Just learn how to basically swim and get over any fear of water you may have.

[klausfraz]

Hallo i Germany and can bad Englisch bad i like style and we hope you have Fun. and you cam home.,

[irenemckenna]

[irenemckenna]

someone plz tell me what the music is at 2:34 thanks

[syrianguy20yrs]

ok i know how 2 do 50metters fly. i can't do 100metters and 200metters. i don't know wat 2 do. i'm prtty good with the stroke HELP!!

[joeln323]

200 IM?

[GioTheFatty]

Being good with the stroke necessarily doesn't mean you have the stamina. Thats probably why you can't complete the higher m's. I would practice the 100m every time you swim, which will be tiring as hell. Then once you get that down move up to 200m. It's just a lot of practice thats all.

[stevengwapo1]

wish could swim like you

[fmprh]

tnx jimmy, its very helpful

[animeluver1XD]

swim team sucks.. x.x..swimming back and forth... again and again.. x.x

[jianh1989]

if not back and forth then what can u suggest?

[animeluver1XD]

i don't suggest anything. i think the sport swimming sux.. in comparison to other sports but it helps your body a lot. for example.. figure skating.. you use your muscles a lot and leg power.. and you have to have stamina.. cause you're skating really fast during practice and everything.. and you're flexible.. you do jumps, spins, and footwork.. and there's different types. but swimming is... turns dive swim 4 styles.

[joeln323]

swimming takes stamina too. And its not like u can just hop in a pool and be a beast. Just like any other racing sport, u need to practice it. do swimming competitively and u'll understand. Don't be so ignorant and learn to be understanding......or shut up and keep ur negative comments to ur self

[animeluver1XD]

Actually yeah swimming is very competitive. Yeah it takes a lot of practice, but it's only 4 strokes and technique.. that's it.. it's like a lot about speed. I don't have to shut up and it wasn't a negative comment. ACTUALLY ON YOUTUBE I CAN POST THIS? BECAUSE IM NOT BREAKING ANY RULES?

[joeln323]

Yea it is only 4 strokes and blah blah blah. Most racing sports technique and speed. So ur point is.....? And figure skating is about technique and not even speed, but i still respect it cuz it takes skills. So don't say it sucks just because ur not good at it

[animeluver1XD]

i can say it sucks. i said figure skating was about technique.. but speed is important too. so my point is it's very plain.

[joeln323]

fine. u can keep that as ur opinion but i honestly dont care nemore. it doesnt but its ur choice. it would be like me saying anime is stupid and lacks any intresting aspect. I think its sucks (but i'll keep that to myself......but not really)

[tip722mess157]

背影音樂很棒，泳姿也很美，希望飛到美國認識妳們

[YouAlreadyKnow2]

i agree.

[jianh1989]

what is the background song at 1:55 ?

[Phillipians4and13]

The artist name is "flo rida" song "low"

[jianh1989]

no no, not "Low", the song I'm saying starts at 1:55 at quite low volume and it starts as Jimmy is talking ...

[jianh1989]

btw what is the starting music?

[jianh1989]

IT'S HELPFUL!

[emmanuelats]

hey dude from Argentina, your's swimming videos are great! I can see a lot of thing that I never pray atention! kick ass men !! see u

[Knownbyname]

i've been swimming for a long time and I always felt I was swimming wrong...you're really good at explaining techniques. I'm getting into lifeguarding this helps a lot. Thanks for making the videos!

[pulangdamo]

cool "zipper" drill :D

[katya0210]

Love you!

[branflake8]

Im totally learning how to swim from watching his videos. I just go to the pool and emulate all the shit this guys says. Breathing correctly was the hardest part, but it becomes second nature through practicing. What I havent mastered is endurance. I run about 12 miles a week but cant keep up with the other swimmers. Kicking totally kills you :[

[Mrilliterate]

Running actually weakens your overall leg muscle performance for sports like swimming because it only develops a limited set of muscles which you need for running, leaving some essential swimming muscles weak, hence you'll need more energy for kicking and your endurance won't be as good.

Squats are a good exercise to do if you do both running and swimming (thats what I did)

[USMCpride11]

hey whats that first song played???

i love that shit!

[KingGalanoth]

Hey Can you Go to the marine wen your 16?

[marinez79]

No you have to be 17.

[stcbulldog25]

no 17 and your parents gotta sign and 18 u can enlist by your self.

[breakdrum]

Hey Jimmy, thanks for the video. I'm 40 and have never taken lessons, have just swam freestyle through strength, zero technique. You make it look so natural. I say that knowing full well the effort that you've put into getting to this point. You're teaching analogies make so much sense. One thing that I'm struggling with is endurance when I kick. It really tires me out quickly. Do you have any advise on this or is it just time in the pool to build the endurance?

Thanks Jimmy.

[lukesimianer]

im with you breakdrum when doing freestyle I think I kick to much but everyone says I dont but it deff drains me quicker if I kick to much, Ive been working on timing a certain amount of kicks between breaths

[richkidsmartkid]

thanx jimmy

you are awsome

[caligrl82091]

teach how to tread water!

[funnyrat08]

i enjoy watching your clips, except I can't do the breathing well for frrstyle

[steveo049]

joining the air force soon, more specific i want to do one of the special ops jobs which means quite a bit of swimming. Your videos have already helped me quite a bit. But im having trouble breathing. Everytime i pull my head out of the water i can't take a full breath so i end up switching my head to the other side, got any advice?

[shnsino]

thanks, it really helped me a lot, so keep teaching...

[MrBravemomo]

its really useful

thnax man ur the best

[spox009]

you are N1 thx for everything

[ningster83]

Thanks for the videos man. :) Wanted to ask if its actually good to be "kicking up a storm" or are we supposed to reduce the amount of splash we make with our feet?
