I breathe on one side. I would like to start training myself to alternate breathing-any drills to suggest?

    This video of Michael Phelps ... made me wonder whether his asymmetric stroke had more to with his submerged style of swimming than having a weak side. He is totally submerged for a good part of the stroke. I was also struck that he breathed very early, almost in the end of the pull and very early part of the recovery, like in fly. I think this is a very cool vid. In the fishbowl shot he does seem to lope through the water, in an almost fly-like fashion. Thanks for pointing out the timing of his breath there. Hummmmmm....
