I have been learning swimming for the past 3 months in a 25m pool. This is my third month trying to swim 50m and switched to a 50m pool. Learning from old posts here - reducing the number of kicks per stroke was great advice, and also breathing through the nose underwater made it easy. I still have the problem of turning my head around too much as I try to get air through my mouth (looking towards the sky). Any thanks guys… This is my new pool…
What a lovely pool. You need not be turning your head, more so your body. Imagine you’re on a spit, that kind of turn. As for looking; try and look straight down whilst exhaling, then to the side as your body rotates - ideally half goggle in water, half goggle out as this keeps you flat.
