5 out of 5 stars this technique works even for the nonswimmer   December 30, 2009
Allison (Massachusetts)
This is not just for triathletes. As someone who flailed wildly about in the water after a mere 20 feet, I was skeptical that I would make progress. I used both this video and the book. This video helped me visualize better some of the drills in the book and worked nicely as a supplement to the book. Both are geared towards swimming more efficiently in the water by making yourself cut through the water though better use of your body position. Using the book and video together I have become more comfortable in the water and can now cover considerably more distance--also stopped fighting the water.


1 out of 5 stars Not good video   December 11, 2009

Not very useful.

90% is demonstrated by an old man - not fit at all. I didn't see much sports beauty or strength.

I think it is a waste of money.



5 out of 5 stars Cheesy but hey it works!   November 3, 2009
Canoeist (Phoenix, AZ USA)
I bought this guys book and this DVD and invested a lot of time doing exactly what he said to do. Honestly the author strikes me as a little weird. The reason I gave it five stars was because his lessons worked! I went from struggling to total comfort in open water swimming. I am not real fast yet but I can swim all day in rough open water.


5 out of 5 stars Apply this and you'll definitely swim faster & further   October 28, 2009
Atlantian (New Zealand)
Awesome DVD (and pdf booklet on the DVD also) which gives great stepwise instruction to help you swim faster and further using less energy than before.

I was swimming about 20-21 strokes per length (25m) before this and hadn't really improved in my swim squad over the last 2-3 years. Within 2 weeks of practicing only the first 4 drills (of 12 or 14) on this DVD I'm now down to 16-17 strokes per length.

Just have to keep applying the techniques on here and I stay at that stroke rate and am less tired and going faster than before. If I regress to my old style my stroke rate per length increases and I'm less efficient.

This DVD is fantastic and helps you swim smarter rather than just bashing out more lengths trying to get faster by getting bigger muscles!!

Get if you want to improve!



5 out of 5 stars I can swim but   June 16, 2009
A. C. Brown (Chicago, IL)
This video is great, I've watched it over a thousand times and pick up something new each time. I was not a swimmer and now I can swim. However, I should have purchased another one for beginners because this does not discuss exhaling in water. As another reviewer stated, the book is needed with the video....they go hand in hand.
