Snorkel use

Our coach doesn't give specific times or workouts to use the snorkel. I love mine but I'm not sure when it's the best time to use it? I have been using it at the end in the pull sets but can it be effectively used in main cardio focused sets?

  • I've had this same problem and figured out that it is happening mostly when my streamline is a bit "loose" coming off the wall. When I focus on having my arms very tight against my head and not opening up until I initiate my 1st stroke then it will stay straight. thanks, I do have trouble keeping my arms tight to my head off the wall. Maybe that is the reason I did a triathlon 2 weeks ago and there was guy in my wave racing with a snorkel. :nono: On the other hand, when not racing, and using a pair of fins, goggles, and a snorkel, a swimmer can quickly find all of the best coral reef areas within 1 km of beach in a few hours.:fish2::fish2:
