For
a lot of triathletes, the swim is the most difficult
leg of the race. Spending hours each week churning through
laps in the pool can help you get fitter, but it may
not be the most efficient way to improve your swim times.
As you're gearing up for a new season, consider giving
yourself the advantage of swimming like a fish and knocking
minutes off your time. A new book, Triathlon Swimming
Made Easy, by Terry Laughlin, founder and head coach
of Total Immersion Swimming, teaches you how.
The Total Immersion way of swimming
differentiates competitive, shorter distance (less
than 200 m) lap swimming in a pool, which requires
speed and power, with long distance triathlon swimming
in open water. For triathletes, it is more important
to conserve energy for the bike and the run! This
book can help you improve your stroke and your swimming
technique so that you can swim faster, with less effort.

| The
book covers the techniques that Terry teaches to swimmers
in Total Immersion workshops around the world. You will
learn to balance in the water and to let the water support
you. You will learn to flow through the water with an
effortless, fluent stroke. You can learn to avoid the
drag and turbulence that use most of our energy, when
we should be spending it on propulsion. Picture a sleek,
streamlined form piercing through the water. That can
be you!
Triathlon Swimming Made Easy
provides you with specific, detailed drills in a gradual
sequence and an explanation of why you should do each.
Follow this lesson plan and soon your new stroke will
feel natural. Then you'll be ready to move on to the
exercise sets and speed work. The book even includes
some valuable tips for open water swimming and race
day.
If you're one of those triathletes
who feels that the swim is holding you back, you want
to improve your swim performance, or just feel more
comfortable in the water, check out Triathlon Swimming
Made Easy. Once you're on your way to the Total
Immersion approach to swimming, you'll find that this
discipline can be applied to other physical activities,
as well. Enjoy the benefits throughout all of your
training, and have a successful season!
