Hey for you guys that replied to my thread last week, i really appreciate it, you guys really helped out. I ended up going to the club swim to find out that theyre actually pretty lax. theres no forms to fill out, you just pretty much show up when you want to. The problem is they dont have coaches either, they have a hand full of really good swimmers though. My problem now is, today i went to swim with my schools triathalon club because fridays they get a coach to supervise, and pretty much i had a big wake up call on how badly i needed to work on my stroke. I'm going to research a bit online, it's just, im a bit discouraged cause it really sucked my first week in the club swimming sport because pretty much everyone there swam high school varsity or college. Even in the very last lane i found myself getting in peoples way a lot and having to stop each time i got to the other end of the pool to let everyone pass me, and it was pretty embarrassing. I really want to get better though i just dont know what direction to take. I dont want to keep going to club swimming and swim the 4000 or whatever meters or yards that swim with the wrong technique and get like muscle memory, i want to do this right mainly because i really want to get in shape. I know this is getting kind of long so ill just end it here but if any of you who are still reading this can help me out i would REALLY appreciate some guidance. thanks again guys.
oh and i almost forgot, the first day in the club swim the main dude there told me that you know he'd help me out to just message him on facebook and i did, and the next day he pretty much told me that he read the message and just didnt feel like replying, and since tuesday i havent heard back from him. So it's attitudes like that, thats making it hard for me to feel comfortable asking for help.
