OK well, this happens alot but this is how it progresses. I'm swimming warm up feeling pretty good and then we continue swim, feel good. We start doing some quick sets get the heart rate going, breathing a little heavier, and i feel this irritation deep in my lungs, not too bad right now. However, the main set comes around and about half way though I go into a sparatic, uncontrolable cough. It is very bad, I am coughing in between breaths underwater and it just feels worse when you breath in. At the wall i am breath very fast because if i breath to deep i will cough more. This happens to just about everyone in the pool and i feel i cant get the most out of my time int he water. Usually the coach opens the door and it helps a bit, but not reall yin lane six fartherst from the door. Also our pool has no openable windows. Are there any other suggestions for fixing this problem? My team and i are desperate.

They no longer allow commercial pools to be built with out the proper air exchange in the province of Ontario. The gases from chlorine would not be there if the pool had proper treatment. Eg I saw at a pool in Montana the lifegard walking around the pool with a bucket of chlorine filling the bucket with water and throwing it in the pool then taking the readings. If the water is on the acid side the gases escape then would hover. That pool was in Gillette Montana.
