That back to breast turn was crazy, I need to work on mine.
London Reinhard I know! I repeated that part of this video several times at 0.25 speed to really examine how its done. The only way I knew to turn from backstroke to breaststroke was to turn around your body in the last stroke of the backstroke to proceed to a basic flip turn. This is very cool!!
crossover turns are hard to do right
Garrick Zheng i was practicing them and found it hard to successfully do one without hurting my shoulder lol
When you breathing less in butterfly you can swim faster. However in first 50m butterfly it is important that you breath as much as you need to save power for the rest of 150m!
This guy got skills...
wanna know who the swimmer is.
Very cool video. Variety of angles and camera motion give a full perspective on how to swim proper IM. Thanks a lot!
Nice! I've been in swim meets for about 4 years now, and this is amazing! On freestyle just remember to do about 3-4 strokes before taking breaths.
iiMisty they have already replied, but when you do 200 m individual medley in a race where you use the most powerful but energy-consuming strokes in all forms, the muscle fatigue and stamina consumption are considerable towards the end, especially the last 50 in freestyle. Sure you can do no breath in 25m, one every 4 strokes in 50-100m, but you'd be breathing more frequently in 200 freestyle or medley for oygen needs. I saw one of Michael Phelps' s 200m individual medlay in 2016 Olympic, he was breathing every other stroke in freestyle in the last 50 m.
Great technique for all strokes!
Nice quick breath, EVF elbows on freestyle ( removing the small hand pause in early begining of the catch will be almost perfect) , and excellent breaststroke glide between strokes.
There needs to be more of this on youtube, really i want more.
Beautiful
For the swimmer's freestyle, is he turning his head for every stroke cycle in order to catch a breath on every stroke or to catch more water and have more reach? Wouldn't turning his head on every stroke create more drag?
Mainly for the purpose of breathing. Keep in mind the further you go throughout the race, the more oxygen your body needs to supply the muscles. Especially for distances like 800 or 1500 free you see athletes breathe every other stroke. Thanks for your question and watching the video!
I lost my breath...
Man got some skills
Certainly he does! Thanks for watching!
he's great
im trying to create my own swimming programme im going ok have done 1km freeystyle as part of my rehab i got a bit confident now do ibreak the 40 lengths into 4x10 with 4 kick boards , a bit of back stroke , jogging in between each set of 10 , now have started doing the medley though i have a long way to go at 42 i would like to do the medley alot more any ideas please i have been swimming for about 3-4months or so i have gotten back into cross country/ trail bike mtb riding hope this helps.
That's impressive! Glad you are getting back to swimming as a part of your rehab. You can break 1K the way you like it, however, it's always good to start from stretching and easy warm-up, depends on what the goal is, and then move into more advanced sets.
what you mean is that i have to breath more in the first 50m butterfly?
Just watching this makes my heart race...
In 200m IM
More breathing or less breathing is suggested in the first 50m buttery?

Swimming 1 im today going for Jo
I have swim meet tonight. I thought you are supposed to hit the wall with two hands the turn.
That’s is correct! In butterfly and breaststroke both hands must touch the wall at the same time. Hope the meeting went well!
I think this is a 100m medley? Or edited a 200m medley?
You hit the nail on the head! It would be way too fast for a 100 :)
