Is there a "beginners" forum?? Not necessarily inside of this one, but anywhere out there in the e-swim world that you guys can recommend? You guys are really nice and helpful and I want to continue to be able to post here. I just would like to communicate with some more beginners like myself, if that's possible.
Thanks,

Ya, thanks. It is a good forum. But it is their forum for TI. I don't feel like I could talk or get any advice from them due to "their" technique.
I'm just frustrated. I know I'm only a beginner. I practice every day and the biggest thing, for me, is the breathing. I'm turning right, pulling air in, head down, PUSHING air out my nose and still only make 3 or 4 rotations and feel like I'm smothering. My body doesnt' feel satisfied. I can run 3 miles on a treadmill and do ok. I just didn't think this breathing would be that hard. :mad:
I guess I'm taking this so serious because I finally am doing it. I've wanted to do this for many many years and here it is.
I hope I'm not cramping anyone's style in here. Please bear with me.
I'll get it, I don't give up easy. I keep telling myself what I'm doin right.
Thanks for the ears/eyes.
