Swim technique

Swim often

The more you swim, the more comfortable you will feel in the water. You're better off swimming more times per week than doing longer swims.

Focus on technique

Good technique is MUCH more important than strength in swimming. Focus on your technique.

Join a Masters Team

Most communities have a 'Masters' team for adults who want to improve their swimming skills. You don't have to be a swimming 'master' to join!

Training

Swim with your wetsuit

Practice swimming in the pool with your wetsuit on to get used to it.

Swim gear

No board shorts

Get a real 'competitive' swimsuit if you want to get serious about swimming. It will reduce drag and help you swim efficiently.

Cap it

Wear a swim cap to keep your hair dry and improve your efficiency.
