Top 3 Swim Tips for Beginners thanks to our own local high performance triathlon coach Your Multisport Coach Brendan:
π Relax and take good deep breath before and during the swim. Relaxing and controlling your breathing well will help you feel better and in control of your swim.
π Try not to go out too fast .. swim at your own pace. If you go out too fast you will tax your system and this will increase your heart rate and your oxygen requirements
π Most importantly have FUNβ¦ remember why you are doing this in the first place!
