Thanks for the advice. I have a swim on Sunday morning. It's 1000 meters in 15 minutes. It's a requalification for open ocean lifeguarding. If I make it, I keep my job, if not, I lose it.

[Garusa]

[KX9N]

[edwinlee95]

thats pretty amazing dude

[KX9N]

i swim a 29sec 50 free im 14 this is my first year swimming. is that good?

[cdoug25]

neither, but i am starting to get into it now that i realise i am quite good at it and i am starting to train now because i used to so so so much when i was a little kid, i can do 25m freestyle (front crawl) in 12 seconds.

[KX9N]

wow you know what. i went to a camp and ive been doing my freestly ALL wrong. now im wayy faster

[smashingapples7]

Im 14 too i swim a 28 second 50 free and its my first year competitively swimming and my coach says thats pretty good. But im more of a backstroker.

[ocdoman]

yeah im a freemen my 50 time is 28 seconds too, but our couch sucks and doesnt teach us anything, so it could be better. swim is a difficult sport to do

[luisandres09]

man my form seems pretty good 2 me but 4 sum reason i still only get about a 32-34 on a 50m.

i need sum1 2 watch me n tell me tha small things im doing wrong..

can any1 send me a good vid clip of tha hand part of the stroke..

my friends told me that tha way im doing it is less efficiant then it cld b.. but i need an underwater view of the stroke..

[ocdoman]

what i do is i keep my arms pointing down under water, and that helps me. Take a very small amount of breaths, for me i take one a little b4 the flags b4 i do the flip turn and then one at mid pool on the way back

[blankety345]

Ill try.

See if i can go sub 24 next time

[gzhothayer777]
