Hello all. For an intro- I am a middle age fitness swimmer with no competitive experience. Hope to eventually find a masters team but on my own at the moment.
My ultimate goal is to be able to swim at 1:30 pace for 1000y+. That is far off for me at this point as I clock in between 1:55-2:00 right now. Max is 1:36s (all according to my swim watch, no pace clock where I swim).
I’d love to get some feedback on my technique. I watch a few YouTube swim channels but I’m not sure what would be best for me to work on next to improve. Hoping someone here could help!
I do know I definitely need to work on general cardiovascular endurance. I generally breath every stroke if swimming greater than 200y, but switch sides each lap. I tired to catch a little of both sides in this DIY video but didn’t plan it out that well.

Looks great. It must have taken lots of dedication to get where you are today. I do have one question - are you consciously trying to swim downhill? If not, check out the video below. This will bring your feet right to the surface!
