Don’t gasp or Blow!
Breath control is fundamental to efficient swimming. You need to train your breathing for effective performance.
Important Breathing Tips:
-Inhalation: Should be an easy reflex action – don’t gasp in air! If exhalation is adequate, air will flow in on its own!
-Exhalation: Always flow the air out easily. Never blow the air out forcefully, because this causes breathlessness and loss of breathing control resulting in premature fatigue. Exhalation should be at least twice as long as the inward breath
