swimming bad for health?

http://sovereign-tech.com/home/why-swimmin...a-health-hazard

Seating in front of your computer carries even much more health hazard, your body posture, itb, eye sight, possible radiation..

On a side note i just realise the website sells ozonise technology, offcourse they will condemn chlorine pool.. Bukit Jalil pool is using ozonisation filterisation, they still add in chlorine tho, lesser maybe.. at least my skin doesn't feels that dry swimming there

The condition is good but i didnt put my things in the locker. The swimming pool got cctv camera,so dun worry. I like the pool but hate water which is freezing cold. LOL

Added on August 31, 2012, 4:23 pmAnyone having an idea in choosing goggles? I bought ogival brand 10 yrs agowhich UV protected and it is suitable when i use in indoor swimming pool. If i use it at outdoor pool,it will shine n distract me frm swimming. How? Should i buy another new goggles with protective screen with it?

Someone organize an event yo! =)

TS no entrance fee required...but u need access card to go in

Anyone swim at PJ Palms before ? nearby Amcorp Mall ... wondering how is it there ...

is it ok to just swim breast stroke?
i feel a bit bored and hard to get tired when doing breast stroke after stamina improved a lot

still cannot master freestyle

It's not necessary to hv consistent left and right breathing when you're in competition.
The reason why the coaches encourage swimmers to breath left and right side is to make the swimmers hv a better sense of its body position and hand strokes in the water.
All swimmers will get used to breath one side better than the other, but good swimmers hv at least not so much different in either side breathing skill.

And it's very wrong to drop your elbow after your hands enter the water.
To swim more efficiently, swimmers like to maintain the high elbow positions.
A lot of ppl mistaken that high elbow position is maintained during the recovery.
But, it's not very true.
High elbow position should be kept in the water too.
If you go to Youtube watch those olympic swimmers' video, you're going to notice that their hands are almost perpendicular to their bodies.
This explains why the swimmers hv big latissimus muscle.
Freestyle and butterfly use a lot of energy from this muscle.

anyone go Bkt Jalil pool recently?

I just went yesterday night, decent pool but public can only use un-laned pool, had 2 times head on collision with someone.. used to swim unidirection in bukit jalil

slowly adapter then, everyday a bit soon u will achieve something.
I got bored with free style lately also, doing some breast stroke and back stroke..


Thank you for your explanation, i watched a lot of youtube video, sometimes explanation does need to complement with a lot of self exploring also.. I think high elbow simply means palm below elbow all the time..

It's actually quite hard to maintain the perpendicular with body, you need a very flexible shoulder..

I have problem of consistency.. sometimes can catch better sometimes now.. Trying to counter this by swimming a lot times in a week, do drills before swim. break down swim into shorter distance and emphasize on strokes..

My bilateral improved a lot, i can do it non stop now, just cant do in when I sprint tho, will run out of breath after 50m..

I just went 3 hrs ago..
