If you're a swimmer and you don't regularly spend time working on your technique, why not? - it's already perfect - you're happy with the way you swim - technique coaches just slow you down - you can't teach an old dog new tricks - drills are for dentists Something else?

@BeckyRLH @SimonDGriffiths Yes, I spotted it was old after I responded - hoping they are now more up to date!
@BeckyRLH @SimonDGriffiths One can always see worse! Yes, there are good bits, which make the bad bits worse, somehow. A missed opportunity, but perhaps they will do an updated version soon
@Milnelang @SimonDGriffiths For the time being I am only swimming every other day and my dry days are focused on strength (mostly barbell and dumbbells) around shoulders and posterior chain muscles- I’m going to be patient and target 2025 for a long swim (also a big birthday)
@SimonDGriffiths @ImogenRadford also this tweet was from three years ago - I haven't had time to check all their water safety messages but they may have updated their campaign
@SimonDGriffiths Sleep! It’s vital. And Pilates
@SimonDGriffiths @JoshuaNeedleman I've added Yoga three - four times a week and it seems to have stabilised my shoulders. Am about to experiment with a bit of land training.
#FloatToLive is really useful advice – if you fall in, get into trouble or in a panic when in water, know how to do it to stay safe. Bawsey swimmers are supporting #BeWaterAware to keep swimming safe with knowledge! @outdoorswimming @OutdoorSwimmer imogensriverswims.co.uk/blog/april-baw…
Its Be water aware week! If you found yourself struggling in the water unexpectedly, your instinct would tell you to swim. But cold water shock could make you gasp uncontrollably. Then you could breathe in water and drown. Instead, you should Float to Live. Remember it. Share it.
