About this listen

Of all three disciplines in triathlon, swimming is the one dreaded the most by age-group triathletes, many of whom have had little formal experience in the water. Fortunately, of the three sports, swimming might be the easiest in which to make improvements.

Triathlon Swimming Foundations provides a simple, straightforward system developed By a triathlete for triathletes, allowing them to become comfortable and confident in the water using a system of triathlon-specific drills and techniques.

Triathletes who follow this program are sure to breathe easily in the water without panic, eliminate sinking legs, gain previously elusive speed, and swim smoothly in a triathlon from the start line right into transition, with plenty of energy left to take on the rest of the race.

“Triathlon Taren” Gesell is a triathlete who has become known for his wildly popular Triathlon Taren YouTube page, Instagram account and podcast, where he shares tips, tricks, hacks and time-tested knowledge to help age-groupers get to their start lines confident and their finish lines strong. Based in Winnipeg, Canada, Triathlon Taren is also the head coach of Team Trainiac, a training platform supporting a growing community of triathletes from all around the world.

100% recommend.

before listening to this book i was having swim lessons from a swim teacher. they were so fixated on me doing bilateral breathing (ever 3 strokes) i decided to go to the pool and try every 2 strokes to breath as per tarens advice.

i instantly was able to do 50m.... before this i couldnt do 30m. id start my second 25m stint and be out of breath. im not after only 2 weeks of practicing on 2 stroke breathing (2 months after the start of lessons!!!) doing 100m lengths!
