Ok, I'm trying to get more serious about swimming. My endurance is getting better with every swim, I'm working on technique, but I can't get the breathing deal down exactly.
I'm trying to breathe every 4th stoke, but I can't figure out how to breathe out under water very consistently. Should I breathe out through the nose or mouth, should I exhale fast or slow? What tips can anyone offer?:confused:
I’d recommend exhaling rapidly from the nose AND mouth, with the exhalation finishing just as the mouth breaks the surface to inhale. Exhaling too much too early reduces buoyancy.
