The start of Total Immersion

DSC00882

It’s my second lesson at National Aquatic Centre@Bukit Jalil for TI Level 1 today. Back in lesson one, we were taught on how glide thru the water. Today’s lesson, we learnt about how to skate and basic hand recovery. There’s so much of coordination for the mind to put everything together. But I do starting to feel how each of the element is put together to swim with as little effort as possible.

Things to remember for me from the coach:

  • relax my neck and arm
  • look downward
  • don’t over rotate the body
  • hand extend in front of shoulder
  • Kicking slow and relax…

Those sound like too much to remember. I better practice hard before the next lesson starts!
