Answer 7

The best way to get better at swimming is to swim. Track your progress and see if you are going faster and how many strokes you may be taking to go faster. Try doing a test set every week of 10 x 50 @ 1 min to 1:30 swimming for the best average possible. That should help you move in the right direction. As for improving your starts, ask your coach what you can do to improve, without seeing the start it's hard to know what to say. Work on quickening you reaction and remember sometimes it's not how fast you get off the block but coming out in front when you do your breakout stroke.

Answer 8

You do not go as far or as fast when you dive deep, if you go in at an angle keeping your body straight and flat and diving shallow, then you will go both faster and farther!

All the Best
