Transform your front crawl swimming with our Improver level Guildford Lido Improver group technique squad sessions! ONLY 6 PLACES LEFT NOW!
Improver level front crawl technique squad sessions Guildford Lido pace range 2:15 - 3:00 per 100 metres average or 67 to 90 seconds per 50
Weekly Speedy Swimming sessions from Thursday 5th May 2022 1900 - 2000
As an improver level front crawl swimmer, you may struggle to swim beyond 100 metres before your form and technique breaks down, or you run out of breath, ie are gasping or in oxygen debt
Water is 1000 times denser than air, and when swimming you're breathing half as much as when on land. To swim twice as fast in the water you would need to expend 4 times the amount of energy which isn't sustainable. Every action in swimming has an equal and opposite reaction - what does all this mean and how does it translate into improving your front crawl technique?
If your technique isn't quite right, or body position or breathing incorrect, then you are probably wasting valuable energy and oxygen fighting the water, and moving it in ways that are not necessarily propelling you forwards in the most effective and efficient way! You need to learn how to use the water to your best advantage, switch any power you have down or off a bit for now, and focus on learning how to swim more efficiently, with a lower stroke count, more optimal stroke rate, and increasing your distance per stroke whilst all the while this is allowing you to swim further with more ease!
These sessions will focus predominantly on improving your body position and technique and helping you past the 50m, 100 or 200 metre barrier for front crawl
You should be able to swim 50 metres front crawl in one go, between 67 and 90 seconds
Using our tried and tested methods of teaching and extensive swim drills and stroke corrections, we will help you to swim more comfortably, with less effort, in a more relaxed and comfortable way, and teach you how to breathe easier and better!
You'll be learning how to improve your distance per stroke, reduce drag and resistance, improve streamlining and swim more efficiently without wasting energy!

If you're in the pace range for the improvers group then you're welcome to join the waiting list which is on this link if you select tickets. This group is focusing on body position and breathing and much more on technique, whereas the intermediate group is more on pacing, with a good level of technique drills and stroke corrections, and open water skills, swimming a bit further each session than the improvers.
