I found someone online to practice TI drills with... a "TI Buddy" =)
Does anyone have any suggestions for doing this effectively? We're going to swim together probably once a week for an hour.
- Should we do 30 minutes with one swimming and the other watching, and then switch, or should we constantly switch?
- What's the best way to notice and correct someone else's body position/head position/kicking/rotation in a given drill?
- Any other comments? Has anyone tried this before?
Well I did some of the drills by myself during a public swim the other day.
I can't stand getting water splashed in my face all the time due to the turbulance of all the other swimmers... I guess I just have to get good at closing my mouth at the right times so as not to breath in the water =) That is a skill all into itself. Try swimming next to a 6-7 former Olympian. Nicest guy in the world, but there is quite a wake! I have perfected the timing of not breathing in the short time it takes him to speed past me!
