This is absolutely magically improvement. My pace changes impressively from 2:27/100m to 2:17/100m for 5km swimming. Thank you so much indeed for your explanation, and your passion in finding the best way to share useful information to everyone by visual and examples. All the best to you.
Never heard of the shoulder shrug as part of swimming, so, today in the pool I played around with it. I think it is the Effortless Swimming guy who talked about the catch, set up, power phase, and finish of the stroke/arm pull. In experimenting with this, I don't shrug my shoulders down until I get to the power phase, which is at about 45 degrees of the way through that 180 degree arc that our arms make in freestyle and the fly. I did notice that when I am getting tired, my high elbow tends to get ahead of my hand a bit, so not a true vertical forearm, and when I do this, I tend to shrug my shoulder down too early. Now, some thing to add to the list of things to pay attention to when swimming.... I am still playing with the S curve arm pull. Haven't made my mind up about it yet. It does not come naturally after years of pulling more straight through, rather than in the S..
Oh my goodness...this popped up just at the right time on my newsfeed randomly. Have been getting really frustrated with swimming. What a game changer this has been for me, thank you! Explains things really well, things I have really been struggling with . Am actually feeling excited about swimming!
I make my swimmers keep the pull buoy under their knees. It aligns their body and they learn to keep the legs narrow and engage the core more. Great input on the shrug 😃
I've been struggling to become more efficient through the water and could not figure it out after watching a million videos. THIS VIDEO was the magic sauce for me. Thank you so very much!!!
This series of swimming videos is probably the most educational resource swimming tool I've seen in the last 4-5 years of swimming. Could you do some videos on open water swimming?
Awesome explanation of the streamlining of the lower body! I always have the feeling that my legs were not aligned with the body when pulling, and this confirms my feeling. I will work on tightening my core then.
I love this channel because I am just now at age 37 learning to swim (from CZcams channels like yours) and my name is AARON. Thank you for the awesome instructional videos and going the extra mile to make them personal! Love this channel
Great input on not releasing the shoulder shrug during the pull. i can see while now that i have improved a bit the catch (still work in progress) that releasing the shrug would result in loss of momentum and body connection. Kind of like winding a coil and then letting it fizzle instead of using in to channel the water back
1. shoulder shrug, arm up upward rot of scap 2. pull arm down shoulder depress 3. keep scap up as anchor hand and forearm down 4. tighten core and stay long to streamline. prevent wiggling when pull 5. hips straight 6.
Thanks to A-aron, I have went from 400 meters in 12 minutes 40 to somewhere between 8-9 minutes and that without practicing what I saw in the video before trying, yank you A-aron! A-aron literally made me become a lifeguard, so cool
Best video ever! So enlightening! Full of great-valuable information, very well explained; and I always love the visual aid and reference examples, these expend the understanding of the lesson and make learning the technique much simpler. You guys blew it out of the park this time 👏👏👏 😃
O - M - Gooossssh This morning I saw one of AAron's videos and for what ever reason, I can not get back to it, even I subscribed. So thanks for your understanding I am totally inspired to drop a feedback in any of his videos 🙂 The Vid I saw was about breathing, about technic and about counting the strokes per 25m lane 🥰 A little about myself - I am 59 years old and I started swimming in Jan/2023 because of a slow recovery from Corona infection in combination with the wear of my patellas. When I started I decided to not just swim on daily basis, but to challenge myself to get better very quick 😃Hahaaaaa Honestly I had quite a good feeling how to swim. About the technique - but I was totally exhausted after 2 x 25 m in freestyle. After weeks of Yoga and Spinning in combination with swimming I did my first 500 m in a row. weeks later I challenged myself to get to the 1000 m in a row (even with very little breaks) and I succeeded. I could do 1000 m in a row in approx. 26 minutes. My fastest 500 m remained around 15 - 14 minutes My fastest 25 m remained around 30 seconds (dying 😕) From todays video I started counting my strokes I was surprised to count 20 in the beginning. Then - implementing what I thought I understood from the video this morning - I started to take very good notice of - how to rotate - how to push my shoulder fwd - how to decelarate the arm rotation but pull more water und push more in the final move - how to kick less - how to constantly exhale - how to increase rotating my shoulders higher and pls don't ask how I was able to follow in NOT THINKING TOO MUCH - and keep track of all this 🤷🏼♂ When I stopped my tracker after 500 m - I ended up at approx 12 minutes instead of 14 - 15 minutes - I did the 25 m in less then 20 seconds instead of 30 seconds and - I counted 12 - 14 strokes instead of 20+ strokes before. Final note to self - I have never felt kinda stiff and aching but today I do. Feels like a huge lessons learnt here. Namaste AAron 🙏 I so so appreciate you have read all this and yes - now go and enjoy your next 1000 m 🏊🏼♂ Thank you loads for all your amazing work here
Thank you very much, I have done some dry land strengthening of the scapular beforehand. I have then included your recommendation, I gained 10 seconds per 100m.
Not recommend says ChatGPT: No, a shoulder shrug is not recommended in the front crawl (freestyle) swimming stroke. In fact, a relaxed and efficient shoulder movement is crucial for an effective front crawl. Here are some key points to consider: 1. **Relaxed Shoulders**: Keeping your shoulders relaxed helps to reduce tension and allows for a smoother, more efficient stroke. Tension in the shoulders can lead to a restricted range of motion and increased fatigue. 2. **Shoulder Rotation**: Instead of shrugging, focus on proper shoulder rotation. As you swim, your shoulders should rotate along with your torso. This rotation helps to lengthen your stroke and improve propulsion. 3. **Proper Arm Extension**: When your arm enters the water, it should be extended fully forward with your shoulder leading the movement. The shoulder should stay down and relaxed, not shrugged up towards your ears. 4. **Breathing Technique**: Proper breathing technique can also affect your shoulder position. Ensure you are turning your head to the side to breathe rather than lifting it, which can cause unnecessary tension in the shoulders. 5. **Alignment and Streamlining**: Maintaining a streamlined body position with aligned shoulders helps reduce drag in the water, making your swimming more efficient. In summary, maintaining relaxed shoulders with proper rotation and alignment is essential for an effective and efficient front crawl. Avoid shoulder shrugging to prevent unnecessary tension and improve your swimming technique.
@@schneiderburo6351 that I'm talking about a shoulder shrug in a very specific moment. Chatgpt has to watch the video to understand. Even then it needs to feel it to understand it. This isn't written in any books so it doesn't have any context of other people talking about it. A shoulder shrug in that specific moment has nothing to do with the arguments it provides. It doesn't even make sense in some cases like the 5th.
Well, still playing with this and have discovered some interesting things. I have always suspected that I don't get enough full extension and body roll with my freestyle, but have never seen myself on camera. While playing with both this and the S shaped pull, these two faults seem to be very high lighted. I am slowly learning to do FULL extension instead of the 95 to 98% extension. Focusing on the catch, the set up which is high elbow and vertical forearm, then the pulling arm and front side kick on that same side are both 'locked and loaded' and then get that power/surge #1 front side kick to go along with the power section of the arm pull, which is in the 45 to 135 degree part of the arm pull arc. Not worrying about the S curve, though a little extra bend at the elbow when passing my belly button seems to happen at the same time as I roll from one side to the other. This does seem to make my stroke count less per length of the pool. Lots more Arrow freestyle in the future, and more of my over arm side stroke which enables me to focus on one arm at a time..... Lots of work to do, but I think I like it. I am not competent enough with the fly to really 'feel' this, yet. I am starting to get the 'feel' of it with freestyle and my side stroke....... Many more miles to swim....
I learned to keep legs straight with a pullbuoy between them. First thing to isolate the legs and when you swim with hand think about proper position. (Best way without breathing)
I wonder if you could explain further on the point you made at the 3:05 mark: "If the core is not tight, your body will wrap around the pivot point." I don't think I'm using my core enough to rotate. Not sure if that's why my ribs have been hurting.
Hey! I love the content, but is there a way you could do a diving video??? I’ve been trying to improve my entry but I keep getting way too much splash. I always get the furthest out from the blocks and I’m always the first off because my reaction time is good, but I always have the most splash and it gets a little embarrassing at times lol. Is there any way you could make a vid about how to improve dive entry? Thanks!
I have a question about evf: does the forearm needs to be vertical like 90 degrees with the bottom of the pool or is it ok to be diagonally pointed? I’ve heard a lot of different theories but any explanation. The majority of them tells us to do a completely straight forearm, doing 90 degrees with the bottom of the pool, but if we see ian thorpe, or tae park, they are doing a diagonally evf. Why? Can anyone help me please??
Would appreciate it if you could explain further what you mean at the 3:40 mark: "Remember that they do rotate on the X axis, but they should not move from one side to the other."
Another valuable tutorial, thank you! Always thought the legs should be rotating simultaneously with arms and core (maybe inspired by Rada Owen), but according to your animation, I'm overdoing this, ending up like that curled spaghetti. 🙂
I primarily swim backstroke. Would the "shoulder shrug" suggestion also apply to initiate early vertical? Thinking about backstroke as freestyle in reverse... Thanks for your help. (BTW: I'm an older swimmer.) I tried, and it does seem to work. But I'm not sure why or how.
All the people that have understood something from this video apparently are very clever! Because I haven't understood neither about shrugs nor hips rotation. 😬
which flutter kick is the most effective? following shoulder position or whose hips are fixed without following the position of the shoulders.? explanation please.
Depends on what your event is. For short distances fast flutter kicks are optimal meanwhile two beat kicks seems practical for long distance events like ironman and open water eventsp
I love your humoristic self-ironic undertone soo much!! Hahaha! Genius videos with very nice animations. Is this a publicly available animation program?
I'm sorry to ask this kind of question: How do I know if everything you taught is true? I'm Brazilian and I really liked the format of your video, but I wanted to be sure, do you understand?
It's imposible to know if what I teach is true. But I do my best to research from every expert I know, from my experience, from teaching others and discussing ideas. I encourage you to try my tips but don't think that I know what is best for you. Everyone is different and swimming knowledge and understanding is always changing. I'll do my best to keep up with it but I'm sure I'll be provn wrong sometimes.
What about this warning?: "Japanese National Team Coach, Yoshihiro Fujimori, says that one of the easiest ways to not only get power from your swim but to avoid shoulder injury is to keep your shoulders loose and un-shrugged at all times throughout the stroke. Shrugging your shoulders during the pulling process gives unneeded tension to the small but important muscles in your shoulders."
I have been following all of your amazing videos and they are helping me improve my stroke greatly. In this video Aaron is not rotating his hips with his shoulders as you instruct on other videos; can you explain this more. thank you!
When I was 12 I thought I was a good and fast swimmer. I’m now 58 and training for triathlons. My swimming is shit ! I only have one speed it seems ….. time to focus on technique as shown here
Hi Skills N' Talents , I wrote this article using google translate because my English is not good, I hope you can understand me. My nose has a bony structure. and I have a weak face. Swimming goggles give me a lot of pain because my nose is disproportionate to my face. Believe me, after swimming for an hour or two, my nose hurts, sometimes it bleeds. It hurts so bad! The height of the nose bridges sent with Speedo swimming goggles is actually THE SAME! Only the distance between the eyes increases or decreases. But my problem is the height of my nose! The nose bridge part of the swimming goggles MUST NOT touch my nose! please tell me ; Why don't Swimming Goggle brands ever think of people with big noses? WHY ? My nose is big and high! Why does no one think of me? I don't want to the nose bridge to touch my nose ! Not even a little touch ! I want to swim for hours without my nose hurting. Please suggest me a goggle...

Thank you a lot!!!! Your way to explain it makes perfect sense. Im eager to try It in couple hours.
O - M - Gooossssh
This morning I saw one of AAron's videos and for what ever reason, I can not get back to it, even I subscribed.
So thanks for your understanding I am totally inspired to drop a feedback in any of his videos 🙂

Nice 🙏 The shrug is improving the streamline a bit too, slightly narrowing the shoulders.
Great video as usual!!!!! i believe in Aaron !!!
Thank you so much for this. I swam faster today and early vertical forearm felt more natural with your shrugged shoulder technique :)
The way this dude is saying the names reminds me of that one skit🤣
Muito obrigado por essas dicas, vou aproveitar melhor as aulas de natação!

I improved by 2sc/50m just by watching this vid, thank you so much !
Aaron is a good guy
Hello,you earned me first in my swimming race from your videos!Thx!
-God bless you!
I wonder if you could explain further on the point you made at the 3:05 mark: "If the core is not tight, your body will wrap around the pivot point." I don't think I'm using my core enough to rotate. Not sure if that's why my ribs have been hurting.
Thank u so much❤
I love the fact you use the names from that Key and Peele skit hehe
Really helpful information at granular level to understand nuances and intricacies in strokes
Muito bom essa aula tomara futuramente a evolução da Internet faz tradução simultânea com idioma com inteligência artificial
Great video. Informative. Technique changing! Thank you!
Hey! I love the content, but is there a way you could do a diving video??? I’ve been trying to improve my entry but I keep getting way too much splash. I always get the furthest out from the blocks and I’m always the first off because my reaction time is good, but I always have the most splash and it gets a little embarrassing at times lol. Is there any way you could make a vid about how to improve dive entry? Thanks!
the best swimming channel ❤
I love the names through this series as a reference to Key & Peele; well done!
Hello, when taking a breath through the mouth, should it be emptied from the nose or the mouth under water? Thank you
Valeu!
My only criticism is Be-la-kay is spelled BLAKE. Otherwise, great job! :
Great man! Gonna work on it next time I’m in the water.
Loved the names by the way Mr. Garvey would be proud.
I have a question about evf: does the forearm needs to be vertical like 90 degrees with the bottom of the pool or is it ok to be diagonally pointed? I’ve heard a lot of different theories but any explanation. The majority of them tells us to do a completely straight forearm, doing 90 degrees with the bottom of the pool, but if we see ian thorpe, or tae park, they are doing a diagonally evf. Why?
Can anyone help me please??
sculling exercises helps me so much
Ohhh j'avais jamais fait attention à ce détail! Vivement ma prochaine séance que je travailles ça ^^
Thank you for the should shrug reminder!
Would appreciate it if you could explain further what you mean at the 3:40 mark: "Remember that they do rotate on the X axis, but they should not move from one side to the other."
The x-axis is the line between the ends of the pool.
Excelentes videos que haces, amazing job!!!!
Excellent explanations, as usual.
Excellent edit, thank you very much for sharing... one question: at what exact moment does the shoulder meet the ear?
Another valuable tutorial, thank you!
Always thought the legs should be rotating simultaneously with arms and core (maybe inspired by Rada Owen), but according to your animation, I'm overdoing this, ending up like that curled spaghetti. 🙂

The shoulder shrug was the missing link for my swimming technique....
After each of your Aarons, I have to open comedy central...
I love the reference to Key & Peele with the swimmer's names!
Can you please help me about my mobility in shoulders I have a hard time doing the recovery part. Do you have videos about the concern of mine?

It's made on Blender. Open source
@@SkillsNT Bravo you are not only an elite swimmer and dedicated teacher, but also a full programmer!!
Balake and A-Aron ……is it from key & peel 😂😂😂
Отлично! Будем пробовать зафиксировать именно движение плеча
great to at the very end of the video.
I think it's better to use an animated model to explain the movement of swimming than a live man.
Could you explain front hand, back hand in swimming? 😜
Wonderful! That is the key!
Nice Peele and Key reference ;)
I have tried to duplicate your method and I have gone from 2:20/100yds to 2:39/100 yards ?
Hey! Can you make a video about the serape effect. And how to train these muscles in the gym.
Interesting
The reference to key and peele is something else hahahaha
Key and peele pronunciations 😂😂
Cool, interesting video!

Is this saying that you should always swim with your shoulders shrugged? Or do u shrug ur shoulders and then unshrug as you pull?
Most people un-shrug too early. But yes you un-shrug as you pull
Excellent 👌
I dont really understand, why is A-aron swimming slower than the other guy? What did he improve? Sorry i just dont get it🤔
High shoulder is as important as a high elbow
What about this warning?: "Japanese National Team Coach, Yoshihiro Fujimori, says that one of the easiest ways to not only get power from your swim but to avoid shoulder injury is to keep your shoulders loose and un-shrugged at all times throughout the stroke. Shrugging your shoulders during the pulling process gives unneeded tension to the small but important muscles in your shoulders."
This video did teah me how to swim but do worry I do know how to floow!!!
I have been following all of your amazing videos and they are helping me improve my stroke greatly. In this video Aaron is not rotating his hips with his shoulders as you instruct on other videos; can you explain this more. thank you!
When I was 12 I thought I was a good and fast swimmer. I’m now 58 and training for triathlons. My swimming is shit ! I only have one speed it seems ….. time to focus on technique as shown here

讲的太棒了！
Hi Skills N' Talents , I wrote this article using google translate because my English is not good, I hope you can understand me. My nose has a bony structure. and I have a weak face. Swimming goggles give me a lot of pain because my nose is disproportionate to my face. Believe me, after swimming for an hour or two, my nose hurts, sometimes it bleeds. It hurts so bad! The height of the nose bridges sent with Speedo swimming goggles is actually THE SAME! Only the distance between the eyes increases or decreases. But my problem is the height of my nose! The nose bridge part of the swimming goggles MUST NOT touch my nose! please tell me ; Why don't Swimming Goggle brands ever think of people with big noses? WHY ?
My nose is big and high! Why does no one think of me?
I don't want to the nose bridge to touch my nose ! Not even a little touch !
I want to swim for hours without my nose hurting. Please suggest me a goggle...
Someone's been watching Key and Peele intercity substitute🤣
¡Gracias!
