What do you wish you knew as a beginner Swimmer ?

I'm 38 now start learning how to swimming
Comment from : @Ahmadloveualways

I am 29 and I was afraid that I am too old to learn to swim, but so many people in the comment section are giving me inspiration I guess it's never too late for anything as long as you have burning desire to learn something new in life

Fractured my clavicle some years ago I suck at swimming, full stroke motion is uncomfortable i tend to just roll over onto my back
Comment from : @scottvoltageable

I started Brazilian jiu-jitsu when I was 30 Three years in I got my blue belt I swam as a kid and stopped unfortunately when I moved to Colorado The point, you're never too old to learn something new or return to something

Inhale through your mouth?
Comment from : @stephendoyle3542

I took professional lessons with two seperate teachers (with a good many years between them) One was pushy and bordering on aggressive, the other more concerned about not getting her hair wet! I gave up and walked awaystill can't swim at 64!

I love this video
Comment from : @JuaquanWilliams

I'm almost 22 yo Can I learn swimming now? And can I participate on some tournaments if i work hard for sometime? I mean age is not necessary for swimming as sport or not?
Comment from : @hansibinuz

Thanks, swam a lot as a kid but was never taught how to do it properly Now at 64 I'm trying to learn the front crawl! Having lessons and making progress albeit slowly!!!

Comment from : @rdipo781

What a depressing 1 min start
Comment from : @atulkishan3752

Never swam before and I am 68 and taking swimming lessons three times a week I just got goggles that are for ocean swimming, tempered glass that are anti fog This makes a big difference My teacher takes video’s of me and sends them to me so I can see what I am doing right or wrong Those goggles have a nose thing because I just can’t handle water going in my nose, it just creeps me out It is hard being coordinated with the breathing, but I will not give up!
Comment from : @dayzemae9015

I really desire to know how to swim
Comment from : @annyngethe1356

It was my first day ever at a pool, I was even afraid to step in but after a half hour I was able to go under water n hold my breath, this is how I learn the first rule to swim is to have command on ur breath n once u let go off the fear, it's all easy
Comment from : @zaradawood1

Currently doing 2 sessions a week
Comment from : @na-dk9vm

HOLY MOLY GET TO THE LESSON - IT TOOK NEARLY 3 MINUTES TO START, YOU TIME WAITING TARTS
Comment from : @WholeBodyEducation

Think this is aimed more at the intermediary who has mastered the floating bit and the fear rather than the novice (absolute Beginner)

Learning to swim at age 51
Comment from : @daybyday-365-4U

For me, exhaling through the nose under water is the hardest part of swimming It's a very unpleasant feeling, and I'm never comfortable with it
Comment from : @carlos-fv1rc

I stopped swimming in my teens because of a bad experience in my life at 39 i learnt to swim again because my son needed his dad with him in the water but i still have moments of anxiety so i attend weekly now to improve my confidence
Comment from : @peterah7957

You mean keep excelling throughout the all strokes always ?
Comment from : @nikunjpatel1452

Comment from : @MrBiswas123

and dont forget to close your fingers when your pulling or the water just goes straight through 🙂
Comment from : @luigee8151

I learned to swim as a child but didn’t progress very far as I was afraid of the water and I’ve been afraid ever since I’m now 45 and started having lessons 3 months ago I wish I’d done it sooner and not been so scared to swim I get a lot of enjoyment from swimming and Im getting fitter too!
Comment from : @louisarosina

I've noticed swimming helps me with my asthma :D Having to control you breathing so much more when at the pool really helps later in the day as well
Comment from : @cekan14

I had silly attempts as a kid but in all honestly never truly learned Going back now at 42 The struggle is real! But I’m confident and I already signed up for a beginner triathlon in a year

I learned to swim when I was 6 and been a beginner ever since
Comment from : @freewilly6300

Two things: I wish I knew about stretching routines for my shoulders I would have saved myself many “off weeks” waiting for my shoulders to heal I also wished I knew that the catch and pull are two distinct actions Although they happen very close to each other they should be kept far apart…!
Comment from : @bro7269

Comment from : @MichelleseaChelle

I wish I knew it wouldn’t be as embarrassing as I thought it was going to be

I started learning to swim 2 months ago (I could swim 25m before) and I now can cover fairly comfortably the 1500m olympic triathlon distance I swim 4 times a week I am 26 If I could do it, you can do it too GTN definitely helped a lot
