Advice please front crawl
Hi All,
Bit of background - I’m 37 male and started swimming again end of January. I had plenty of lessons as a kid and so was pretty strong swimmer as a child. Started swimming end of January to get fit mentally and physically after a 20 year alcohol problem.
I’ve managed to get pretty decent st breast stroke (for me anyway and compared to where I was at the start. Approx 25 mins a kilometre)
I’m now wanting to start front crawl. I’ve been watching videos for tips etc but I end up gassed after about 35 metre. Breaststroke I can swim anywhere up to around 4km at the moment before I’m shattered so I’m just looking for anyone’s best advice to kickstart my front crawl “training”
I could do it as a kid but I’ve not really done it for 25+ years
