breathing technique freestyle


Among the existing four swimming styles (breaststroke, freestyle, butterfly and backstroke), the most difficult way of breathing is freestyle. In breaststroke and butterfly, breathing can be done easily because there are times when our heads are entirely above the water surface. Breathing in backstroke is not difficult because of the head and body facing toward the sky freely. As for the freestyle, our heads should not be fully protruding from the water surface. This is what makes breathing in freestyle was more difficult.

But if it is usual, there will be no longer a difficult thing. Take (breathe in) breathe in freestyle we did since the 2 / 3 strokes of our hands, and we end when we hand back into the water. Take the example of taking a breather to the left side. At our left hand strokes parallel to the chest, there will be lifting force on the left side of our body. As a result, the body will tilt to the left side facing. At that time we began to take a breather. And the slope of the body by itself will help us in the face to swell up the surface of the water easily and naturally.

By the time your face again immersed into the water, remove it from the air by relaxing your nose. This will cause the water bubbles coming out of your nose.

Then when we take a breath? For such long-distance swimming 1500 meters, some great swimmers like Grant Hackett taking a breather once every two strokes. This means that only one stroke apart, and therefore was only breathing to one side only: to the left only or right only.

But there are also some swimmers who take a breath every three strokes at all. This means taking the breath will be conducted alternately to the left and right. How to breathe as well known as a bilateral breathing. So which one is better between taking a breath to one side or take a breather to the two sides alternately? The answer, like-like you. Do you think is more relaxed, casual, comfortable and suitable for you. So most importantly, you feel comfortable as breathing.

However, a lot of sprint freestyle swimmer (50 meters or 100 meters) that make every effort to hold their breath during the race. They just take a breather when really need it. This is done to avoid the speed reduction that typically occurs when a freestyle swimmer is taking a breather.
