OK, been swimming again tonight.
Breast and Back are fine Butterfly is rubbish (that will be
my next mission)
Freestyle is still a killer, I tried to analyse it a bit.
First 25 is easy, I guess because I am working anaerobically
at the start Second 25 gets harder, I guess this is because
Im switching to my aerobic system and this obviously needs
oxygen, thats when it all starts to go wrong. If I breath
every 2 strokes I can keep going but my stroke is appaling
If I try to get back into every 3 I "run out of oxygen" and
feel as though I need to get my head out asap
Then we moved over to a big pull set with pull bouy, I can
do this forever, breathing every three. I guess that this
suggests that my body is not balanced without the bouy (I
can almost see Terry Laughlin nodding)
Oh well I will keep trying and "swim downhill" as well as
emptying my lungs.
Keep the advice coming, I want to swim"
