How to improve kicking
Thank you so much. Your video is really helpful. I'll practice using your techniques the next time I go to the pool.🙏😊
Love it 😍 such great visuals and advice!!!

Thanks De-nice and AA-Ron for your great swimming demonstration
Bolake! Kkkkk
i understood that reference.jpg
there is no way he is saying those names wrong on purpose!
D-nice
Lol
1. I never thought someone could make swimming sound so interesting !
2. I never been so emotionally invested in the skill journey of a 3D model
Wow, good works, lads !
Have you watched animation movies or series?
@@user-si9jy3zs1jI think he meant never so much emotionally invested in just a video to teach a skill... I mean not every video has such storytelling with characters you could get attached to
As usual I learned more from a 9 min youtube vid than a year in swimming school. Thank you!
When I was in swimming school, my teacher didn't correct my technique even a single time, how was I supposed to improve?
Anyone else watching this while not knowing how to swim?
Me.. 😅😢😊
😂
I'm a good swimmer
Same 😂
Not many then. Time to learn! It's a great all body workout that is easy on the joints.
You got everything right - sinking legs, out of breath quickly - but my name is not A-a-ron! 😂
A-Aron!?!
@@playmaker8833It's not A-aron either.
My name is Robert, and everything match hahahaha
De-nice was trying hard to.
@@andrewperez8358 But she gave up quickly 😀
A-A-Ron has a lot to learn.
That is correct
The-nice
This has got to be intentional 🤣
🤣🤣🤣I keep wondering if they know they pronounced the name wrong.
@@jodyditzel5623 Maybe she does maybe she doesn't. Doesn't change the fact that they pronounced the name "Aaron" differently from how it is pronounced in English.
This video is phenomenal for one reason only: the importance of fundamentals. Whether you're swimming an Iron man, competing in a 200 free, or swimming recreationally, if you're trying to get better there is no way you can skip the fundamentals
How can someone be so relatable?? How do u know every problem that i face??
So much thnku 4 this
This commentary is actually amazing because it' points out they challenges of not only learning, but teaching, and the journey we are expected to face before we improve.
Those names sound like a Key and Peele sketch I watched. "D NICE!!"
He looks like an AI avatar
I like ay Aron the most, rather than D. Nice. He is better.
You cracked me with the Key & Peel References Lol
Thanks for this! I'm a long time runner who decided that i wanted to learn to swim as in adult, but I wasnt able to learn even after two whole beginner classes (20 1hr sessions). I struggled with my horizontal balance. Your video explained the science behind each step better than my instructor. Seasoned swimmers do not understand the short and sudden panic of not being able to get air between strokes. My instructor just told me "you'll get used to it". After 20 lessons plus some solo training, i still didnt "get used to it".😂
The key to swimming with less effort is to be so relaxed and comfortable in the water that you think you could literally take a nap, floating on your back, as if you were lying on a comfy water bed. Keeping a lot of air in your lungs is a key, so watch how you breathe. Air in lungs, you go up, exhale and you sink. To move in water, you only need to wave your hands a little bit. You don't need to move your arms in formal strokes that tire you out. If you get tired, just float in place and rest. Be patient and don 't worry about going fast. If you learn to relax enough, you could swim for days, if you needed. If you are in weeds, just float on your back, keeping your body near the surface, patiently untangle yourself a bit at a time, and inch your way through them. If you're not good at this, stay away from any areas with weeds, but if you are good at this, there are no weeds so thick that they stop you.
The best thing I learned after frog and back swim was to float. Now that I can float on my back I can take a rest anytime I want.
You helped me so much! Thanks Tom
The video is a blueprint for anyone who loves being in pools, beaches and lakes. Keep up the magnificent work coach! Peace 🕊️ Blesssings to everyone involved with your priceless podcast.
I was a competitive swimmer from the age of 8 to 18. I can tell you that there are two critical skills in swimming that are hard to teach. 1) the pull: when your hand enters the water with your thumb slightly down and your elbow relaxed, you pull the water about 3-4 inches under the midline of your body in a slight S pattern and when your hand passes your navel you use your triceps to push all the way down. Pulling the water deeper, say 5 or 6 inches from your body is inefficient. If you master the pull, and it takes strong lats and endurance to do it, your body raises up and glides through the water with less resistance. 2) Pull/Kick coordination. This is fabulously difficult to teach. When you pull with one hand, you emphasize your down kicks with the opposite foot (kick harder and slightly deeper). This coordination generates great power between opposite hand/foot at the same time and keeps your body level, reducing resistance.
If done correctly you should get the dip in the water where your mouth is when you turn your head to breathe, another bonus since you don't have to turn your head as far. Ive tried to show this to people over the years. Very few are able to adjust their technique to do it.
i duno what the hell your talking abt.. but i like it!
@@A-DUBCLUB much esaier to learn with graphic
As a swimmer, this is so helpful and super important
@@A-DUBCLUB same here.
Очень круто! Я бы тренировался у тебя👍
never found a more accurate video on yt than this. If you are beginner trust me this the most detailed video breakdown that even 5 year old kid can understand. Recommend this video to anyone who is just starting to learn swimming.
Things I learned as a free style swimmer:
1. Try to kick as little as possible. too much kicking tire you down quickly. Kicking also create a resistant to the momentum you create from your previous arm swing - that reduce your efficiency.
2. Try to synchronize your kick with your arm swing. When swinging your right arm, kick once with your left leg. Do the same for the opposite.
3. Keep your head as low as possible under water, only comes up when taking breath. Keeping your head low will help balance your body which cause your leg to sink. This way you need less kicking to keep your legs afloat.
Wow, it's like he's telling my whole story of learning how to swim. 😂 Such a cerebral approach and discussion, amazing visuals. This channel is a gold mine; where have you been my whole life
A lot of us learn how to swim without fully overcoming the subconscious terror of too much CO2 in the lungs. Thank you for stating this outright at the beginning and providing a technique for overcoming it through the bubbling exercise.
Been practicing a few years but still having breath problems. This video is very helpful!
I been a swimmer since I was a kid and now I’m a life guard and swimmer instructor You videos help everyone thank you dude
As someone trying to overcome her aqua phobia this video gives me a lot of necessary information and hope to keep going. Thanks! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Swimming efficiently as you explain is difficult but I love the ups and downs of Aarons journey and your excellent analysis and guidance to him. Thanks
A-A-ron
I've started learning swimming for past one week and this video has covered each and every mistake/fear which i am making or going through.
Thanks for making this. It is really helpful
People like you are more then teachers... We refer guru as teacher... I am absolute that ur one of the best guru.
A Aron. D Nice. Lol. One of the funniest skits ever.
Now that I saw all this, I know there is a lot to learn and I'm excited to go swimming and exercise step by step. Thanks for motivation!
Why the hell am I watching this? I have 2 papers overdue for tomorrow. I don’t even like swimming
😂
You probably like to hear A-A-Ron
thank you! I can swim since I was 4 years old but because of the lack of practice I have some things that doesn’t go that well. these videos help me to remember the correct ways & to fix those problems.
my mother doesn’t know how to swim but she likes to watch these videos to get to know how swimming works & what to be cautious of.
thank you! amazing job!
Exactly same problem here, swim fast for 50meters, but get exhausted right-way. To many of us, video like this would be the most informative way to help beginners to improve step be step, as the “Aaron guy” is perfectly representative in terms of demonstrating how repeatedly swimmers struggled to correct our mistakes, or, instincts. A success in anything, including swimming, doesn’t come right after “knowing how”, but with practice for hundred times. Keep report the process and we can all learn from it! swim fast!
Endou it takes your brain a long time to figure out and remember how it feels to swim correctly. You can feel it one day then the next day be off
I swim every morning sometimes twice but without these videos I would still be in panic mode and walking my way back down the shallow half of the pool. Awesome work guys you truly are helping swimmers of all levels. 💪🏻👊🏻🏊🏻
Thank you very much. I watched the videos many times, practice and practice. Half year before, I could swim freestyle for only 25m, now I can swim for 2km without getting tried.
This helps me alot, I can run a marathon and bike 100km but I can barely swim 100m. Been trying to find breathing and endurance breathing swim techniques. I'm glad I finally found this Thanks for this!
LOVE the Key and Peele references! Also, GREAT video I am literally Aaron.
I learned something from hand balancing training that applies well to swimming. Use a softly blown up swiss ball to practice front/back body balancing. Position your hips roughly in the middle of the ball. shift your weight forwards enough so you legs are raised off the ground, now leave just one arm lightly touching the ground and stretch the other arm forwards mimicking the freestyle position with your eyes looking down and the arm roughly brushing your ear lobe. Now slowly try to get to a point of perfect balance rollng your weight onto the hip that is the same side as the oustretched arm and slowly releasing more weight off the grounded arm and coordinating the leg action and hip roll. Then switch sides. As you get more skilled switch sides quicker from one hip to the other until you get it better.
I liked this video in story telling way especially the breathing techniques. Mostly people focus on free style swimming arms and legs more. But for beginners breathing is more difficult where new joiners loose the battle.👍
I can't swim due to the feeling of unease in the water.... The holding of breath and bubbling is the best thing I ever heard to make me feel more comfortable in water! Amazing
He needs to go to Principal O-Shaq-Hennessy’s office.
Great series and as I feel getting relaxed with breathing and body position is so fundamental at start. I often know what I need to do but with swimming it is often so hard to visualise and achieve the subtle changes and repeat to improve. Your clearer explanations and excellent drills (especially dryland with emphasis on necessary flexibity and strength) is the way forward 👍🙏🏻
I started learn swimming...and after 1 month I have the same probl as a Ron...I am totally demotivated...and become de nice... Thanku i just find your video...i will do this from tomorrow
Honestly this was the best explanation I’ve ever seen on CZcams and I’ve been looking for a long time and even better than the swimming classes I had. Will put in practice next time I go swimming. Hopefully soon!
Woah. My name is Aaron and I am beginning to learn how to swim for a triathlon. Every single thing in this video is a perfect description of me
That's a little scary 😳 But statistically probable. I don't think your name is pronounced like that though 🤣
Very good tutorial. LOL, in remembering how the city pool swim instructor taught me to swim when I was very young. Was to throw me in the deep end and put me in a swim or die position in my mind. My my how things changed. 👍. Good to see it focusing on more than just body mechanics. Breathing, mental control, and bringing it back to spacial awareness is so much a part of any physical activity. Great job guys.
This is very helpful, thank you. I have been swimming all my life. Pools, lakes, seas and oceans. Took various lessons from instructors but got to admit- I never knew 2 or 3 things until watching yours. Great content! Good thing you also never skipped the mental set comparison between A and D. Dont be a quitter like her, be a persistent enjoying learner like him 💜
My swimming coach taught me in the same ways as mentioned in the video and I am doing better now. Swimming needs your body and mind to stay relaxed otherwise the fear of getting drowned will not let you learn.
I learned to swim efficiently around 1976 in summer swim club. Even at age 60 I'm often the fastest one in the pool, and taking far fewer strokes per minute. It's a great skill to have.
Kelly me too
@@peterdean5300 Every done "swimming golf", adding strokes for a 50 yard swim to your time?
I forgot how to breath watching your breathing exercises 😄
Good advises and nice way of giving them.
Thanks
OMG, This video is 100% me and my problems. Now when I try to tell people my problems swimming I will just send them this video.
Wow , this is the most accurate realistic prognose video I've ever seen.
One of the missing things I've found is useful is how you can control buoyancy by holding air in your lungs. If you hold air in your lungs you will naturally float which is why you slowly breathe bubbles as you swim. It also helps get past the fear of drowning as you get more comfortable floating in the water with just holding air than fighting to keep yourself with your arms and legs.
Great video, a lot of useful information shown in an awesome way.. I'm excited for tomorrow's swim practice now
Earlier, I told my partner that we're going to swim tomorrow and for some reasons this video comes up.
Scary internet. But thanksfully, this's the ultimate one
What a bootcamp, Thank you so much for making it so simple to understand swimming dynamics
Awesome lessons! Thank you so much! 🔥🤗
You guys are really good.
Love the details and the way you teach.
So many good pointers .
Thanks for the dedication you put into these videos , I never miss one !
I've never had swimming classes. This was awesome. Thank you so much
this was great, i finally felt the feeling of gliding through the water... instead of dragging myself through it.
Thank you so much for these tips.
I really enjoyed the story with Aaron.
And your explanations were really clear 👏🏼
Amazing guys! So much care and attention to this video! Thank you all!
You couldn’t have described it better . Thank you . Alex I hope this helps
Great video animations. The top I have ever seen. Great detail discussed! Will be my new go-to for freestyle. Will share! Thank you!
Such an amazing video, great job!
Ive been trying to pinpoint my problems for the longest time and it seems that i had the same problem Ay-Ron. This video is what i need. Thank u
This makes me wanna go back and learn the technique so I could participate in triathlons. Only fear is my swimming. It felt like I was watching myself struggling in a pool. 😂. Excellent video. I am hooked.
Awesome! This reminds me of my initial swim test back in 79 when I was training for my SCUBA classes. Obviously one has to be able to swim before donning diving gear so our test was in a pool. To the point, one of my classmates, a native Hawaiian, was so impressive in his swim technique(s). He made it look so easy and effortless. He was gliding almost on the surface it seemed, reaching some pretty fast times in the back-and-forth swim observations. Yes, he was the teacher's pet and we learned much from his "instinctive" style. I guess if one is born and raised in the ocean, one learns how to swim efficiently. He was better at teaching and coaching the swim than our instructors. BTW, we nicknamed him AQUAMAN!
I can't sink 😅 (at least not as long as I am awake) . I can float (straight/ horizontal body position) without using my arms nor legs; endlessly and effortlessly. On my belly & back.
People call me Mermaid when they see me in the water. Allegedly I also have a beautiful crowl technique, many swimmers told me. I'm a smoker for 20 yrs now 😞 & I take my breath after 7 strokes, no problem.
I had lived on a tiny island as a kid. Always thought it must have something to do with it, haha- but many coasters/islanders can't float nor swim very well, so... it doesn't make sense either.
What I learned from this video is that I already have excellent swimming technique instinctively! Thanks! 😊
I love your work! Thank you! I hope the restrictions will be soon over and I will be able to access swimming pool again!
I am a beginner swimmer unfortunately I've have experience 2 near drowning experience as a child as an adult I wanted absolutely nothing to do with water but I'm learning to overcome my fear so for me technique is key and your videos give those specific technique for a beginner swimmer which is awesome I do love kayaking and canoeing so it's even more imperative that I can face my fear so I could do these activities more often thank you for your videos 👍
I'm definitely an AAron. I used to be able to float easily when I was fatter, but it seems that my legs are somehow so dense now that my legs always sink no matter what. However my upper body still floats. And my technique sucks. So this video was super helpful.
Just learning to swim for the last two month. Your video truly helps
cool,pace?
Me to. Agree.
Really good instructions! I struggled trying to learn swimming as an adult. Never really graduated to a comfortable level. I can see all the flaws now! Motivated to try again!
Great video, and well researched. Thanks for putting this up
As someone who's never really seen a video on body technique before this feels very useful in general for muscle memory. Maybe something I can use to help with dancing or other sports
Dancings a sport
video games are sports nowadays.. let him have it@@adammotycka6948
Thank you! I had no idea my name is A Aron! I truly appreciate your voice cadence, content taught, and especially the foreshadowing even thought it means I have so much more to learn...and I'm more scared that you're probably an intuitively created halogram!! Thanks!
Hologram? I'm pretty sure I'm flesh and blood
Wow it all makes sense at long last, I never got to enjoy swimming, can’t wait to try this out, thanks sir.
I'm learning swimming these days, and it feels like this is my story.
I needed to say: I FEEL YOU ARON! Hahah omg I've been through all that, but the video is DEFINITELY one of the best from the best CZcams channel for beginners swimmers ❤ I would definitely love to try the app cause I feel so related to all you guys say. I've tried the breathing technique before, but it still feels a bit hard to have half of my face under water and breathe just through this small opening of the mouth. I feel I want to grasp all air I'm able to not to drawn hahah. Looking forward for the next videos and for the app, of course! *-*
100%
The explanation is SO detailed, visually AND in narration.. a very well thought out tutorial..this is too good!
Thank you!
One of the best science of swimming channels and also love the art of storytelling ❤
In the meanwhile, a year ago, I decided to take up swimming for exercise. No one to teach me other than a handful of lessons 30 years ago. I managed to do about 20 laps of 25m before being too exhausted. I eventually settle on 30 laps and swim for half an hour, but still give up sometimes because I am so out of breath. Even more eventually I start finishing my 30 laps in 23-24 minutes and decide to go for 40 laps to make a nice round number (1km).
I never did get much better than 1km in 30-33 minutes, but seeing these videos really tells me there is so much more than just making an effort.
Well I'm somewhat an Aaron myself. 😆 It's incomprehensible how everything is exactly just like you said. Except I have a fear of water as a bonus. Other than that, I really tense when I swim. I usually have sore muscles after each session, like really sore. And yeah, I can bearly swim a little without stopping. I usually panting after few meters of swimming, thus I feel I need more air than I can take while swimming. It's certainly not as easy for me as everyone else.
Good content, but first i need to learn swimming 😅
Omg awesome tips!!! Why didnt i think of pushing off the wall at the start
Thank you for sharing all those great ideas for improve swimming!
I'm told I "fight the water & need to relax". I'm like bro what does that even mean, my default mode is high energy and punch things 😂
But I'm getting better at this mystery concept people call relaxing
🤣 It's a game of relaxing and flexing
Key and Peele? A-Aron and De-nise?
Thanks for the detailed and scientific approach you use when you teach. Your graphics are awesome!
This is the best tutorial swim channel
The most worrying thing is taking in water when you breath.
I swim in a self-taught way which is important not to drown, but it turns out that I made a lot of mistakes after watching your video. Thank you all your very useful instructions
Not me almost drowned bc i jumped in water at 2.3 meters althiugh i dont know how to swim
Such a great explanation and the graphical representation is amazing
I appreciate the appeal to people who are less kinesthetically inclined / have poor physical memory.
Most useful video about swimming I ever saw. I swim for many years and this video helpt me improve a lot!
to me, one thing i recently realized is that my head and chest are floating, and if you direct your whole weight to it, using your core, you will spend less energy trying to stay afloat, that made my crawl much easier, before that i hated it for my whole life. Maybe thats obvious but that was a game changer for me.
Wow! This was so helpful. Thank you. Outstanding!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks a lot for doing this animated video swimming instructions in detail. Excellent for those scared or don't know what to do under the water: how it looks - proper and wrong exercises - to get started confidently with less effort. 😍💪👍👏
great video. i’m glad i recorded myself swimming i was able to find a lot of mistakes. had no idea i was making so many mistakes. back to the drawing board but now i know what to work on!
I really appreciate the culturally appropriate pronunciation of names such as Aaron and Denise. It's powerful to see this knowledge propogating
It's awesome to see AA-ron make such progress.
This is such a great lesson. I have the same problems as Aaron. Thank you.
