 1 |  Subject: Sorta Dumb New Guy Hello, im a 22yr old guy whos never done any triathlon stuff before, but now I want to. Im 5'11" and 150lbs, and not looking to lose any wieght. Im still pretty toned from wrestling in high school, but have been inactive for the past 4 years in the air force. I want to swim every other day cause im horrible at it. However, im not sure what I should do on the days in between swimming. Anyone have any ideas? |

Member 30 Jackson, MS | Subject: RE: Sorta Dumb New Guy I recommend the training book "Total Immersion". It provides a lot of good info on improving swim techniques to make you more comfortable and relaxed in the water not mention faster. I grew up near water and could swim ok but after I read the book, my swimming improved greatly. |
