Wow man excellent video thank you!

[@coachjohn]

Your welcome. What subject do you suggest I make a video on?

[@RachelSmets]

I don't struggle with anxiety cause I don't do triathlon but it's very interesting John!

[@lucianofezza2698]

Nice video John 👏

[@coachjohn]

Thank you. How's your swimming going? I am going to be doing a video on "5 reasons why you stink at swimming"

[@lucianofezza2698]

@@coachjohn I think it is a great idea !!☺

[@coachjohn]

It's definately a video to take someone who thinks they stink and show how to become better

[@glenngundermann2433]

Other swim coaches say to glide until your other hand is in the front quadrant. The technique you are describing is more like a windmill.

[@coachjohn]

The glide is a great pool technique but in open water and a crowd getting your pull going quicker is a very good technique. Gliding isn't accelerating it's slowing down slightly for each stroke.
