I only get water through my nose when I try to be in horizontal position, however, the exercise you provided is a good one to practice. Also, I will do the other exercises for breathing because I believe I need them. I learned that it is recommended to inhale through the mouth, and breath out through the nose. I think it makes sense because, you do not want to get water when trying to get a good amount of air. I saw that the video mentions, You must use the full capacity of your lungs by expanding your chest out, that is an easy task when you are on the ground, but different when you are swimming. What I will try to do is take a breath, hold it and dont breath out because it was said, breathing out is only in the water.

I'm 15 and I've been swimming and acting (theater) with my youth group for about 3 years now. I put so much force in my strokes which causes me to get tired faster. I've watched TONS of videos on how to relax better and swim with out using much force. It wasn't my strokes that have been making me get tired fast. I have an ok form. It's my breathing. I think that's what's wrong with most people. My 200m (dont quote me on this) I think I average around 3: 30-4 minutes. Again, remember. like I said, I've been only swimming professionally or seriously for 3 years now. I'm 15 years old. I really want to go to the Olympics one day!

Thanks for your videos. When I practice bubbling or breathing underwater, I have to stop for a second to take a quick empty gulp. But when I stop for a second underwater, I am not able to start again. It is like my respiratory system is stuck. I am only able to breath out again after I gulp some empty air within my closed mouth. Or I have to come out, gulp little air and do bubbling again. I don't know how else to explain this problem. Can you tell me how to handle this?

I have went into water first time in my life for last one week, all with the help of your videos. I am facing two problems, when breathing in, I suck water into my mouth which is flowing down from the head (not wearing cap, secondly when I let go my hands off the wall while trying to float, I tip over to left or right side until face up and back down in water (feeling like falling down and get panicked)

i have two coaches, one of them told me to throw out the air with nose, but another one tells that i shouldnt breath with nose but with mouth, because in the higher level of swimming(advanced levels) breathing with nose will be difficlut as throwing out all of air with nose is more difficult. for me it's easier with nose, but she tells that breathing with mouth is the more correct.

The squat and facing down floating breathing worked for me, but the leaning back down one didn't. Even if I blow from my nose before going in I still manage to breathe in. After this video I managed to not be afraid to attempt to swim in shallow water though so thanks

The problem is my coach always train me in the deep water, but I want to train where my feet can hit the ground so I can practice when I am in deep water I cannot practice cause if I did something wrong while swimming I cannot stand

Great tutorial. Thanks for this. Will try it out. I bring out my head while swimming breaststroke but just don't breathe. Now I know I have to breathe out first underwater.

For me the problem is every time I try to breath in water gets inside my mouth, and also there is just a split second for inhaling, I just simply can't take enough air (

Thank you so much. I think I have figured out the breathing, except I get stomach cramps after a long swim. Trapped air? Any ideas how I can correct this. TIA

I'm trying private swimming lessons yet again. can't seem to get the breathing sequence down. Hopefully, this time I'll be successful. Good videos. Thanks.
