Why are swimmers with terrible technique still faster than me?

from Unstoppable With Shangrila Rendon · host Shangrila Rendon

“How is that swimmer with terrible technique still faster than me?” Sloppy strokes. Legs everywhere. Breathing looks messy. …and still, they pass you in the water. You ask yourself, "What am I missing?" You’re only seeing the tip of the iceberg. What you see: arm pull, kick, pace, is just a small piece. What’s underneath is the real reason they’re faster. Skills like breathing, balance, streamline, catch, pull, and even open water tactics, they make a huge difference, but they’re hard to see. In this episode, I’ll go over: - Why copying faster swimmers doesn’t work - The hidden skills that matter most and in what order to fix them. - How our Freestyle Formula combines technique, speed sets, open water skills,  and distance to help you stop guessing and finally improve If you’re training hard but still feel stuck, this is why. And it’s fixable.
