Long distance swim breathing

:argue: I'm new and my first post caused some fighting! Good times! :) Reading all the responses was perfect for me though. Thanks everybody. But now I'm wondering why the fast guys swimming the 1500 seem to breath only on one side? For me I want to do triathlons so I will be swimming longer distances. I've read and been told that bilateral breathing is the way to go. But if I watch Hackett he isn't doing that. At least I don't think so.

    Thanks everybody. I like this place :) I've always only taken breathes from one side but started bi lateral based on what I've read. But when I saw videos of people I got confused. So bi lateral is good to know how to do and be comfortable with but do what's best Thanks Not a problem; good luck and keep us updated on your progress...
