Swimming is a constant work in progress

For the first few we'll concentrate on basic swimming generalizations that you can immediately apply to your daily swimming routines, with the first being more of a philosophical reminder. To apply these tips and techniques, and to make them "second nature", you will have to do four things... 1) THINK about what you're doing, and 2-4) PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE! Making a conscious effort during workouts to concentrate on even the smallest element can make a difference, and you WILL see progress.

Remember, for your body to learn the process of efficient swimming, you must establish a pattern for your body to follow and get use to. This "process" will result in your body adapting and/or compensating to the conditions you have subjected it to. As your body learns the process, and makes the necessary changes in order to adapt to the conditions, the ability for you to repeat a particular function while subjected to these conditions becomes less demanding. In other words...The skill of Swimming is a constant work in progress.
