C'mon in, the Water's Fine!

Everybody in the Water! 

Sellwood Pool Now Open

Here is where I will be spending my summer mornings, the fabulous Sellwood Pool. Close to home with a charming old pool house. I relish my outdoor swims here.

Smoother swimming or Total Immersion Swimming, whatever you call it the idea is the same. 

Although this video is showing a method called Smooth Swimming, it is a good example of the Total Immersion Swimming techniques. Streamlining the body to maximize efficiency.

Watch how Olympic Gold Medalist Bill Kirby extends his reach, and lingers in the gliding position. He rolls his body from side to side to minimize drag, and breathes on both sides for balance.

It almost looks as if he is being pulled through the water by a string.

Swim Smooth Visualization

Here's a clip of Olympic Gold Medallist from the Sydney 2000 Men's 4 x 200m f/s team, Bill Kirby, demonstrating excellent form in the water. Watch it before you go for your next swim and try to imagine yourself like Bill, swimming smooth! Bill's swimming technique (freestyle) is one of the best in the world. Great visualization for triathlon swimming. www.swimsmooth.com
