very helpful stufffff..

[ConradILIius]

Donavan Bailey won the 100m Sprint in Atlanta in 1996. He's thinking 2000 olympics

[ulisestroyo]

Terry: Maurice Green won the 100 meters dash, but not in the 1996 Olympics. He won in the 2000 Olympics in Sydney.

Does swimming regularly make you grow taller?

[FuckinCoolGuy]

@TheLeilisa According to Stephen Hawkins from Oxford it does

[TheLeilisa]

@FuckinCoolGuy i grew 3 inches taller from w...helpogrowth.comm

I would like to say in order to make a swimming style more energy efficient one must learn how to optimize respiration. May be the freestyle is not the best style of swimming for a human because in this style we use only 3% of our energy to go ahead. The most energy efficient is to swim under the water, and limit the time to breath on the surface of water. Who knows, may be in couple of years we will learn another swimming style which would be more efficient.

[kuturgan]

I don't agree with Mr Laughlin on the comparability of energy efficiency of a human and a dolphin. As opposed to dolphins a human must to breathe more frequently and that' why he swims on the surface of water, and a dolphin could keep his breathe more longer time and that' why it swims under the water. So in order to compare with dolphine they must calculate the energy efficiency of a human under the water wich practically has no sens in freestyle. We should compare the comparable!

@kuturgan Moving through the water at depth of <1 Meter and 5 meters is still moving through the water. Dolphins and humans come up for air. Both dissipate some energy. His comparison is sound and makes a good point.

Great lecturer and you should read his book--- TOTAL IMMERSION

Great to see Terry in real time covering the whole nine yards of TI in a nut shell. Very much appreciate Terry's problem-solving process and definitely a beneficiary of the results. The internal stabilizing core muscles are crucial and can be improved through exercises on the floor such as Pilates. Six months of dry exercises gave me so much more control in the water unexpectedly

[billysue2]

@longpointepass you wouldnt have to do pilates,any decent core program focussed on strength endurance of all core,not just internal stabilisers would be sufficient.Theres nothing special about pilates apart from the fact its often taught in a group.

[maestro2917]

he looks like Sir Alex Ferguson, Manchester United Coach

[Minkymoo222]

@maestro2917 well, he has a head, and Sir Alex has a head. that's about where the similarity ends.

[emeloche11]

Donovan Bailey won the 1996 gold medal in the 100m dash.

[JRDunassigned]

right, 97 was maurice's year

[Minkymoo222]

@emeloche11 ...and what's more, 100m sprinters NEVER decelerate - they simply do not run out of gas as Terry claims! This guy should stick to swim talk.

[rwalbertson]

@Minkymoo222. Terry is correct. They do decelerate. Look up the 10 meter splits of any world class 100m race and you will see what he says is spot on. Their goal is to "maintain" the top speed they accelerate to through the finish, but they will inevitably slow down (we are talking tenths/hundreths of a second per 10 meter spilts) over the last 30-40 meters.

我用英文問得唔好, 想用中文問.

到底 total immersion 同一般游泳概念有乜分別?

身體保持水平, high elbow recovery, high elbow catch, 隻手放前時拉到最直, 呼吸時頭拍實肩膀, 一般夾泳板操練亦要畀耐性去感受捉到幾多水,

唔係一般我地學游水都係咁ga 咩 ? 到底有乜分別?

[nthdimensions]

Total Immersion 最要求游得似魚。回想你的游泳訓練﹐教練有冇話要游得似魚那麼自­由悠閑﹐有冇見魚 游得像人那麼多水花﹐要那麼多力氣﹖ 如果你能掌握TI,會越游越快﹐如果到速度瓶頸﹐你也會游得快活­﹐因為不用力氣﹐能如魚得水﹐水過鴨背﹐like a fish in water.我可以游蛙式2hrs non-stop, 自學了TI後﹐速度快了一倍﹐可是用力少了一半﹐現在non-s­top游4hrs冇問題 :)

Brilliant

[asbald]

Excellent, instructive fayre challenging the commonly held misconceptions about the nature of swimming. So often swimmers, particularly guys, attempt to improve by greater effort, more muscle etc. This way of swimming is a paradigm shift and allows you to look at the whole idea in a very different way.
