Swim like a fish

This weekend was the total-immersion fresh-up to be ready swimwise for the upcomming season. I took a first beginners course two years ago and went this time together with Irina for a second time. I focused on rotation and on how to save energy and indeed learned some important things:

- I have to work on my core strength and have to focus to swim "on the "Latissimus" muscle" to be pushed forward by the water

- maintain body-tension and push back the arm/hand as much as possible towards the back

-
www.swimmersguide.com is a great website to find pools around the world! Check it out.

- www.finisinc.com are selling great equipment. Unfortunately not yet internationally. I ordered a special snorkel to focus more on the technical swim.

- "Swim slow to swim fast"

Happy laps!
