Hmmm. I think connecting the kick to the core. |

body position |

On his kick. |
|
|
Has he got a belt under the chest to weigh him in order to work on his kick ? Or simply a hairy chest... I thought swimmers were removing any hair to be smooth like a fish. |

maintaining body line while working with a kick board (as Barbara stated). The snorkel to make a kick set an aerobically taxing set, which in most cases kicking on its own is not. I love this stuff, even though you keep staring at the bottom, I focus on my ankles (and toes) keeping them loose while I kick is possible with snorkel kick. No thoughts into breathing. |

lol... Camy... that's what the full body suits are for!!! Besides, even swimmers that shave only shave at the end of the season. :) |
|
|
wow using this snorkel is great idea cos I ususally have a neck strain while doing kicking etc |
|
|
Snorkels are very good! My swim coach has us tape the tops with duck tape, and then he pokes a hole with his car keys. Which really takes the fun out of them :( |
|
|
Coaches are always looking for fun ways to change up tools. Much FUN! Ugh! |
|
|
he is just trying to complete the last 500 meters of the session :) |
|
|
500 meters is half his practice. :) |
|
|
Is he tapering then? :p |
|
|
lets see, instinct |
|
|
Iam allso thinking to buy a snorkel, is it hard difficult to get used to snorkel 'cause as a normal swimmer i am used to turn my head to breathe. |
|
|
It takes a few times using the snorkel to get used to it, but it's not hard. You might find it helpful to wear nose clips. Go for it. It's a great tool. |
