What are some of the must reads on the subject of swimming? I have read Lynn Cox's and Martin Strel's books. Can anyone recommend another either biographical or technical text? Thanks and happy holidays!

  • cool, I put it on the list it's also very helpful for swimmers to have an underwater camera that also films video so swimmers can see what they are doing underwater because that's where the rubber hits the road or the paddles hit the pool. like Fujifilm FinePix Z33WP 10 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom (Green) or Olympus Stylus Tough-8000 12 MP Digital Camera with 3.6x Wide Angle Optical Dual Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.7-Inch LCD (Silver) or Pentax Optio W60 10 MP Waterproof Digital Camera with 5x Optical Zoom and 2.5 inch LCD (Pink) ~ Pentax I recently got my wife a Canon 7D, it's not water proof but it takes great shots & HD vid Canon EOS 7D 18 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera with 3-inch LCD and 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Standard Zoom Lens ~ Canon The Canon Rebel is really great too & films in HD Canon EOS Rebel T1i 15.1 MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera with 3-Inch LCD and EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens ~ Canon here's a very affordable way to get HD Flip MinoHD Camcorder 2nd Generation, 120 Minutes (Brushed Metal) NEWEST MODEL ~ Flip Video Ande - have you looked at/read the "Ultimate guide to weightlifting....?" I have been told that this series (they have ultimate guides for other sports) are not sufficiently sport-specific. It may be a waste of money. A better weightlifting book might be "The New Rules of Lifting" which I have partially read and it is excellent.
