Hi there. I am an active guy in my mid-20's with virtually no "swimming as exercise" experience. I learned to swim as a kid and my father (at the time a Coast Guard Master Chief) made sure I knew how to do a basic *** stroke and besides that I have no experience. I am an active runner and aerobic cyclist and wanted to add swimming to my exercise regimen (maybe a triathalon in the future?).
I realize this is "US Masters Swimming" but I thought maybe the "masters" could give me some rookie advice? Where can I find a good way to correctly learn to swim with various strokes, learn breathing pattern, etc? Also, what type of gear should I buy and from where? What is the best swimsuit for a beginner?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks alot.
