When I joined the navy wanting to be a navy seal I had no idea what to expect . I am still in school and there are months before I and shiped to bootcamp what am I going to be doing to prepare. I was put into a training program for naval special forces where I learened the side stroke and had to pst evry month. I got my side stoke after a few weeks but what are some of the tricks and techneqiues to swim faster and more effortlessly.

There are a number of videos available on youtube- some linking to actual series you can buy by former SEALs- such as:
YouTube - US Navy SEALs Combat Swim
And of course make sure to read Stew Smith's book on Navy SEAL fitness. His program put about 13 pounds of muscle on me and got me seriously into the pool. He also has a DVD on side stroke, also previewed on youtube:
