Depends, how well can you swim? Forget other styles, just freestyle - how fast are you at 100m for example?

>>41253376

I can swim decently, below average. I don't know how fast I can swim however..

>>41253841
OK then how far can you swim without stopping?

>>41253785
Thanks, should I do this Everytime I do cardio? Or should I split some of this up and switch it off every other day?

>>41253845
*Shrugs* probably 50 ._."?

>>41253893
Dafuq son, 50 meters? And you say you can swim decently?

You should probably go to some swimming school, after a few weeks of group training you'll be swimming 10 times better than now.

>*Shrugs*

Tell me, how long exactly have you been on this site and how did you find it?

>*shurgs*

can we just ignore this faggot from here on?

>>41253785
Is this the official Starting Swim linear program?

It's not even a routine (no pacing notes, no rest times, nothing), plus it's retarded. 1km total, most of it auxiliary strokes, what the fuck.

Do any of you guys get a rash in your armpit from swimming? I mainly do freestyle and I feel like my armpit is chafing when I swim and it's a bit red

>>41254139
Maybe you should stop shaving it, gaylord.

>>41254145
I don't shave my armpits. I have this problem in my left armpit only. Maybe it has something to do with my technique / how I lift my arm

>>41254185
Dude but is it on your skin or you feel something in your shoulder?

>>41254208
It's a rash in my armpit. A small, red patch and I can feel friction in my skin as I swim and I'm guessing this friction causes the rash. My shoulder functions just fine

>>41254239
That is really weird, go see a dermatologist.

>>41254283
Well dammit :(

>>41253376
There is a C25K for swimming, just Google it.

I fucked up my knee from too much breaststrokes without proper form. Be careful. Do freestyle.

>>41253882
>>41253893
I'd split it up. But if you want to improve you cardio, swimming is the way to do it. Just be you're doing it right. There's a lot to fuck up in your shoulder, knees, and hips if your form is asymmetrical or your stroke is incorrect.

>>41254104
The OP can't even swim a 50. Why would he bother writing a complete routine if OP can't do it let alone understand it?

>>41254638
Aye, thanks

>>41254666
I can learn these techniques can't I? Tbh I don't know how long I can swim for, but I'm pretty sure I can learn these techniques with good form. If I can't swim for that long, I can just reduce the lengths and slowly increase them over time :/
