In the finals of the 1500 at Worlds, I noticed that all of the swimmers were breathing on the first stroke coming out of their turns instead of taking a pull with the deeper arm and breathing on the second stroke. Any thoughts?
As conclusion you breath for optimal results when racing. Practice will cover finding what is optimal, an ongoing experiment, but useless unless I learn how to breath efficiently. Otherwise I'll be better off holding my breath, which is slower for anything over a length.
As standard for efficient breathing it is safe to say Sun Yang's approach is the the ideal model. Scott Tucker is another.
