Breathing secrets in swimming :: Freestyle Friday #4 :: chest breathing

Today’s tip is called chest breathing. See beginners tend to turn their heads too far and it causes all sorts of problems as we saw on episode one of freestyle friday. But advanced swimmers don’t use their neck muscles to take a breathe. and that is the secret.
So if you do use your neck to breathe, try this. Picture a mouth on your chest that needs to take a breath. In reality you will not have to rotate that much for a normal freestyle swimming breath, but remember that while doing these exercise it is helpful to exaggerate and then go back and tone it down while swimming. So exaggerate the rotation and without moving your neck rotate until your chest is out of the water and take a breath there. You can pause your arms while you do this. Then go back to normal freestyle and try rotating your chest to breathe instead of your neck.
