yeah. i used to do the swimming butterfly stroke but now it's water polo butterfly stroke. which is a bit different in the kicking. that's all..

yeah new shopping mall in setia alam.

the usual ones would be kick twice (dolphin kicks), do a wave-like body motion, then move your hands like you're shaping a round lantern or the first curve or a woman's body. after completing one round,  push your hand downwards to push your body up. then breathe. (lol.. it's kinda hard to explain in words.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLn218BD-lQ

the hint would be the wave-like/snake-like body motion.

sometimes you dont have to breathe once every stroke, you can do two strokes and breathe at once.

May i know, do swimming can make us fit? How bout body shape?

it's like that. swimming butterfly is tiring. at first, you find it hard to bring up your arms. but once your get used to it, and get used to the flow of the body, you can bring up both your arms and you find that it's not as hard. do more push ups to strengthen your arm muscle. oh yeah. a flyer ( good in butterfly stroke) usually have big and nice arms broader shoulder.
when you almost finish forming woman's body curve, push down your hands and lift up your forearm ( in line with your shoulder)  and then only spread out your lower arm and join your hand together.

your hands must be strong enough to be able to push the water so that you lift your (upper) body higher.

i usually swim at 3K if i am at shah alam side..mayb u can join us..
bro tonite i think i wan to rest...vy sleepy n tired...need to restore my energy....perhaps swim on next mon at chin woo?

so after u swim n the condo then u walk back to ur hse to shower?

3K?? where is it? how much per session?

the width of the swimming pool is usually 25m.
the length, 50 m.

for olympic size.

but im not sure though, u can google it.

anybody knows where to get a pair of swedish goggles? I've never seen one so far sold in Malaysia.

hi there i wanna learn swimming...any sifu here can teach me pls? or any of u could provide me with swimming lessons in subang or sunway area? around how much yea? thx

once you go swedish, you'll never turn back. It is like the cheapest and most comfortable goggle ever. It also has the widest visibility because the eye cup is not covered with bulky rubbers. Many of the competitive swimmers use it AFAIK.



sos
The strap on mine is getting loose and I need to find a replacement soon. A pair costed me around €2 only, which is less than RM10.

sure...=) hehe but i don't have any basic...=( huhuhu...u all usually swim there when n what time? it's so near to my house haha i stay sunway =p

Anyone keen to swim at Berjaya Times Square?

My cousin gave me her extra access card in exchange for occasional treats at buffets and movies of her choice.     The pool is on the 15th floor. Could meet up on the 15th floor or Papa John's on the ground floor. I will flash you in. When you leave you will not need the access card. Mornings before 9:30am are best for me, but I don't mind swimming in the evenings either as long as I have a swimming buddy to keep me motivated to do a few extra laps. I think the pool timings are 6am-1Opm daily. I contacted Times Square 0321178000 and was told that the pool is 740 sq feet and 4 meters deep. Still cannot figure out the length in meters but it certainly does look lenghty. So anyone keen for swim soon ? Please?...ok........pretty please? 

Yes I joined this forum to meet up with people who have an interest in swimming to improve my style and keep me motivated . If this is not the right place to be writing my comments I do apologise as I am new to this site. Perhaps you could direct me to a more correct site to make a post. 

Perhaps you could suggest a time that is convenient to you. I would love to swim tomorrow if it is not too soon. The facilities are very basic just a cold shower. Towels are not provided and no hair drier.

This is fantastic news, the more the merrier  I propose 7pm but if you'd like to adjust the time to later that is also fine.

Could you please pm me your number?

i do free style but i feel v tired, maybe i doin it wrong, my leg must kicking non stop to balance my body n leg but i make me really tired, any technique?
