What are the things to pay attention to when teaching swimming?

Swimming, as an effective sport that burns more calories, is now loved by more and more people. At the same time, there are many things we need to pay attention to during swimming. In addition to the necessary warm-up before swimming, we also need to pay attention to swimming techniques and breathing methods. Today I will give you some specific precautions about swimming.

Learning to swim is best done with guidance, both from a safety perspective and because actual technique and self-perception can sometimes differ greatly. Having someone to guide you is like doing the movements in front of a mirror, so you can better grasp the technique of the movements. An experienced teacher will tell you the reasons for your wrong movements and how to correct them.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that you have to learn swimming techniques under the guidance of others. If you don’t have the conditions, self-study is also a good idea. What I introduced are the methods and steps of learning swimming.

Learning swimming techniques is like learning to ride a bicycle. After mastering the basic techniques, the important thing is to practice. Practice makes perfect. To quote an old saying of the oil seller: "There is nothing else to do but practice your hands, legs and head." I hope you will pay attention to the water

Before you prepare to teach yourself to swim, you should first have a full understanding of the characteristics of the human body and water, so that you can make rational use of your own conditions, fully master the properties of water, and make use of them.

As we all know, the specific gravity of water is 1, while the specific gravity of the human body is approximately between 0.96-1.03. Whether an object sinks or floats in water depends on its specific gravity. Objects with a specific gravity greater than that of water will sink, while objects with a specific gravity less than that of water will float. Knowing these two points, I believe beginners will no longer be afraid of water.

When practicing in the water, if you have poor buoyancy or are timid, you can wear a foam waist float to increase buoyancy and give beginners a greater sense of security.

It can be seen that swimming is not as simple as we imagined. Before that, in addition to preparing the equipment, we must also warm up our body to ensure that our body is as safe as possible in the water without any sudden situations that endanger our lives. The editor recommends that you must go to a regular swimming pool for training to avoid accidents.
