Lauren Brandon: How to Swim Faster in the Open Water

Lauren Brandon: So schwimmt man im offenen Wasser schneller

Viele Leute sagen mir, dass ihr Tempo im Pool nicht auf das Freiwasser übertragbar ist und sie möchten wissen, wie sie das verbessern können. Ich denke, es spielen viele Faktoren eine Rolle, wie zum Beispiel: der richtige Neoprenanzugsitz, der Komfort im Freiwasser sowie die Rennstrategie und das Tempo. Lassen Sie uns auf jedes Thema genauer eingehen … 

Richtige Passform des Neoprenanzugs: 

Ich erinnere mich an meine ersten Jahre im Triathlonsport, als ich bei Wettkämpfen den alten Neoprenanzug meines Mannes trug. Obwohl wir nicht viel Unterschied in der Größe haben, passten mir die Neoprenanzüge nie richtig und ich hatte immer Probleme, den Schwimmabschnitt zu beenden. Ich war eine gute Schwimmerin, aber am Ende des Schwimmens konnte ich meine Arme kaum noch aus dem Wasser heben. Wasser drang in den Neoprenanzug ein und ich hatte das Gefühl, jedes Mal, wenn ich meinen Arm aus dem Wasser hob, 10 zusätzliche Pfund mit mir herumzuschleppen. Mir wurde klar, dass ich einen besseren Neoprenanzug finden musste, der richtig passte und mir helfen würde, schneller zu schwimmen. 

Viele Neoprenanzughersteller sind auf Wettkampfmessen vertreten, sodass Sie ihre Neoprenanzüge ausprobieren können. Einige Unternehmen bieten Ihnen auch eine kostenlose Probe zu Hause an, um zu sehen, ob Ihnen die Passform gefällt oder nicht. Es ist unbedingt erforderlich, einen Neoprenanzug zu finden, der Ihren Auftriebsanforderungen entspricht, richtig an Ihrem Hals sitzt, nicht reibt und nicht zu viel Druck auf Ihre Schultern ausübt. Neoprenanzüge sollten eng anliegen, aber Ihre Blutzirkulation nicht abschneiden, und Sie sollten genügend Flexibilität haben, um Ihre Arme bequem bewegen zu können. Ein zu großer Neoprenanzug trägt zusätzliches Wasser und Gewicht, Sie brauchen also einen, der richtig für Sie ist. Nutzen Sie die Gelegenheit, indem Sie sich an Unternehmen oder Freunde wenden, um verschiedene Neoprenanzüge auszuprobieren, damit Sie einen finden, der am besten zu Ihnen passt! Der richtig sitzende Neoprenanzug wird Ihnen definitiv helfen, schneller zu schwimmen. 

Komfort im offenen Wasser: 

Eine weitere Sache, die Ihnen dabei hilft, schneller zu schwimmen, ist, sich im offenen Wasser wohlzufühlen. Wenn Sie nicht an das Schwimmen im offenen Wasser gewöhnt sind, sind Sie am Wettkampftag möglicherweise schüchtern und können Ihr Potenzial nicht ausschöpfen. Es ist wichtig, dass Sie das Schwimmen im offenen Wasser üben, bevor Sie an einem Wettkampf teilnehmen, damit Sie sich an unterschiedliche Wasserbedingungen, das Schwimmen mit anderen Menschen und das Sehen gewöhnen können. 

Es gibt Übungen, die Sie im Pool machen können, um sich mit den Bedingungen des Freiwasserschwimmens vertrauter zu machen. Schwimmen Sie einige 25er-Schwimmzüge im Pool mit mehreren Personen in Ihrer Bahn, die nebeneinander schwimmen, damit Sie ein Gefühl dafür bekommen. Stellen Sie außerdem einen Kegel am Ende der Bahn auf und üben Sie Ihr Zielen. Wenn Sie im Freiwasser effizient sehen und atmen können, werden Sie definitiv auch schneller schwimmen. Arbeiten Sie an diesen Veränderungen vom Pool zum Freiwasserschwimmen, denn wenn Sie sich wohler fühlen, können Sie mit Ihrer normalen Geschwindigkeit schwimmen und müssen nicht langsamer werden, weil Sie Angst haben, von anderen umringt zu sein oder nicht sehen zu können. Besseres Zielen hilft Ihnen auch, in einer geraden Linie zu schwimmen und somit schneller zu schwimmen. 

Es ist wichtig, dass Sie versuchen, unterschiedliche Freiwasserbedingungen zu testen, damit Sie auf das vorbereitet sind, was am Wettkampftag passieren könnte. Wenn Sie in einem See ohne Wellen schwimmen, reicht es möglicherweise aus, Ihre Freiwassertechniken im Pool zu üben. Wenn Sie im Meer schwimmen und die Bedingungen sich ständig ändern, versuchen Sie, diese Wasserbedingungen vorher mit einigen Freunden zu testen. Sie sollten lernen, wie Sie Ihr Tempo steigern können, wenn Sie in sehr welligen Bedingungen schwimmen, und auch verschiedene Atemtechniken anwenden. Bei großen Wellen müssen Sie Ihren Kopf weiter anheben, um die Bojen zu sehen, und Sie müssen möglicherweise nach beiden Seiten atmen, je nachdem, aus welcher Richtung die Wellen kommen. Informieren Sie sich über frühere Wettkampfbedingungen, damit Sie vorbereitet sind, sich mit den Wasserbedingungen wohler fühlen und letztendlich schneller schwimmen. 

Rennstrategie und Tempo: 

Es gibt mehrere Faktoren, die in die Rennstrategie und das Tempo einfließen, die Ihnen alle dabei helfen, beim Freiwasserschwimmen Ihr Bestes zu geben. Vor dem Rennen ist es wichtig, sich aufzuwärmen, und das kann entweder im Wasser oder durch Dehnen und Herumspringen an Land geschehen. Wenn Sie Ihr Rennen ohne Aufwärmen beginnen, können Sie Ihr Renntempo nicht die ganze Zeit durchschwimmen, weil es wahrscheinlich zu lange dauert, dieses Tempo zu erreichen. Wenn Sie startklar sein wollen, verbringen Sie 10 Minuten damit, Ihren Körper auf schnelles Schwimmen vorzubereiten. 

Stellen Sie während Ihres Rennens sicher, dass Sie entweder Ihr eigenes Tempo vorgeben oder hinter jemandem herschwimmen, der ein gutes Tempo für Sie vorgibt. Wenn Sie klares Wasser haben und Ihr eigenes Tempo vorgeben möchten, versuchen Sie, vorne oder seitlich der Startlinie zu starten, damit Sie die Möglichkeit dazu haben. Wenn Sie hinter jemandem schwimmen, überwachen Sie weiterhin das Tempo, und wenn es zu einfach ist, gehen Sie um ihn herum. Wenn Sie ein bestimmtes Schwimmziel haben, halten Sie das Tempo während des gesamten Schwimmens aufrecht, indem Sie nicht zu schnell schwimmen und Ihre Anstrengung häufig überwachen. 

Es gibt viele Strategien, um im offenen Wasser schnell zu schwimmen. Achten Sie darauf, dass Ihr Neoprenanzug richtig sitzt, üben Sie Ihre Freiwassertechnik, einschließlich Schwimmen mit Menschen und Sichtung, und stellen Sie schließlich sicher, dass Sie bereit sind, am Wettkampftag ein gutes Tempo vorzulegen und auf die unterschiedlichen Wasserbedingungen vorbereitet zu sein.

Want to swim without getting tired? It’s all about breathing and technique… 1️⃣ Stay Streamlined Keep your body flat and straight, with a slight rotation with each stroke. Engage your core and don’t look up - this will stop your legs from sinking. 2️⃣ Breathe Smoothly Stick to a steady breathing rhythm—breathe every 2-3 strokes or switch sides every 3 if that works. Control your exhale underwater, so you can inhale when you turn to breath. 3️⃣ Relax Your Strokes Don’t fight the water—stretch your arms out, glide, then pull. Keep it long and smooth to save energy. 4️⃣ Kick Efficiently Use small, gentle flutter kicks to stay balanced. A 2-beat kick (one kick per arm stroke) is great for long swims. 5️⃣ Master Your Pull Keep your elbows high for a strong catch and pull the water back with your forearms and hands. You want to feel the water’s pressure against your arm and hand for a powerful stroke. 6️⃣ Build Endurance Gradually Add interval training to your swim sessions to build endurance: swim 50-100m, rest for 15-20 seconds, and repeat. Over time, reduce rest or swim further to build endurance. #swimbikerun #triathlontraining #swimming #triathlon #triathlete #zone3official

Do your legs often sink when you’re swimming? Did you know your head position and where you’re looking can affect your whole body alignment?! The simple way of describing it: Head & eyes up = legs down Head down & eyes forward = legs up Give a go next time you’re in the pool 🏊‍♀️

Have you paid much attention to what you’re doing with your hands as they enter the water? Having a relaxed hand is best - not cupped but not too wide. This allows optimal force to push and pull the water! What do you do with your hands?

Level up your swim game with hand paddles 🏊‍♂️💪 Swim hand paddles are a game changer for building strength, improving technique, and adding power to your stroke. They give extra resistance in the water, helping to boost your upper body strength and nail the catch phase. When used correctly, they make your arms and shoulders stronger, and they also sharpen your feel for the water, refining your form and giving you that smooth, powerful glide. #swimming #triathlete #swimbikerun #Zone3official #triathlontraining #swimmingtips #poolswimming

Designed for both speed and comfort, the Vision wetsuit is a favourite with our triathletes and open water swimmers. With buoyancy panels for balance, super flexible shoulders for effortless strokes, and quick-release cuffs for speedy transitions, it’s built to perform. Plus it features a groundbreaking new material by Yamamoto which fully biodegrades (unlike regular neoprene) at the end of its life! #triathlete #Zone3official #triathlontraining #swimming #swimbikerun #openwaterswimming

Be honest, do you do these steps after each swim to keep your goggles in good condition? 1️⃣ Give Them a Rinse After each swim, rinse your goggles with fresh water to get rid of chlorine, salt, and grime. 2️⃣ Hands Off the Lenses Don’t touch or rub the inside of the lenses – it’ll help keep the anti-fog coating working properly. 3️⃣ Let Them Dry Naturally Leave your goggles to air dry completely before putting them away. 4️⃣ Store Them Safely Pop them in a protective case when you’re not using them to stop scratches on the lenses!
