Swimming Lesson

Although I am not a bad swimmer, I thought I’d take the opportunity (while I’m suffering a foot injury and can’t run much) to improve my swimming. So along to the local City pool I went and booked an improvers swimming lesson, I only booked one to see how it went with the view that I would book a few more after that.

I consider myself a reasonable swimmer for someone that has never been properly taught to swim (apart from a weekend TI workshop) and has never been a member of a club … but I am not very fast (400m – 7:03)

But on analysis from the instructor he informed me that I had good body position in the water and a good technique so there was nothing about my swim that needs rebuilding …. The only thing that I need to watch out for is when I increase my speed I have a tendency to shorten my otherwise long stroke by exiting the water to soon.

So I don’t need any swimming lessons … what the instructor is going to do though is have a word with a couple of the national squad caches to get a few structured sessions put together for me to help me work towards my goals



One thing though …. Its sometime as good to be told what you are doing right,as well as what you are doing wrong
