I just got Total immersion book yesterday. Have read part 1 of the book and just started doing the drills today. It seems an excallent way to swim and definatly will improve my f/s. But i'm a bit weary because it's so comercail. so my question is, Is Total immersion as good a way to swim as it makes out? or is it the best way to learn how to swim? Are there better books out there that teach you how to swim well(properly)? Hope that makes sense Swifty

I read your saga and involvement in open water races in the U.K. forum. But it is a changing world. You are satisfied to compete against people from your era. The key is to learn from the people of this era. They will grow my age and beyond, into your age, redifine aging and eventually explode the records in your age group. Better to learn from them now.
