Open Water Swimming For Beginners

Freiwasserschwimmen für Anfänger

Einführung:

Da Schwimmbäder für die Öffentlichkeit geschlossen sind und Seen und Strände aufgrund der neuen Lockdown-Regeln nun etwas besser zugänglich sind, denken Sie vielleicht darüber nach, sich ins offene Wasser zu wagen, um Ihr Training wieder aufzunehmen. Oder vielleicht möchten Sie zum ersten Mal im offenen Wasser schwimmen .

Schwimmen im offenen Wasser bringt viele gesundheitliche Vorteile mit sich, darunter besseren Schlaf, bessere Durchblutung, verbesserte geistige Gesundheit, gesteigerten Stoffwechsel und ein gestärktes Immunsystem. Es bietet auch die Möglichkeit, die freie Natur zu genießen und eine Seite der Natur kennenzulernen, die Sie vielleicht noch nie zuvor gesehen haben. Schwimmen im offenen Wasser ist auch gut für die geistige Gesundheit, da es entspannt, die Produktion positiver Hormone im Gehirn steigert und sehr lohnend sein kann.

Bevor Sie sich in das nächstgelegene offene Gewässer stürzen, lesen Sie bitte die entsprechenden Hinweise, die Sie hier finden:

Sie benötigen außerdem die folgende Zone3-Ausrüstung:

Ein Neoprenanzug

Schwimm-Neoprenanzüge unterscheiden sich von anderen Neoprenanzügen für Wassersportarten. Surf-Neoprenanzüge sind so konzipiert, dass sie isolieren und aus dickeren Materialien hergestellt werden, während Schwimm-Neoprenanzüge aus dünneren Materialien, unterschiedlichen Auftriebsstufen und einem viel höheren Flexibilitätsbereich bestehen, was mehr Bewegungsfreiheit ermöglicht. Sie werden es unglaublich schwierig finden, in einem Surf-Neoprenanzug längere Zeit zu schwimmen, daher empfehlen wir Folgendes:

Für Anfänger:

Der Advance Wetsuit ist ein Neoprenanzug für Einsteiger, der aus hochwertigem Neoprenmaterial besteht, das man bei Neoprenanzügen für Schwimmanfänger nicht oft findet. Mit Free Flex-Futter unter den Armen bietet dieser Anzug das richtige Maß an Flexibilität, Auftrieb und Energieeinsparung für Schwimmer, die den Übergang vom Schwimmbad ins offene Wasser vollziehen.

Der Vision-Neoprenanzug ist eine Wetsuit-Stufe höher als der Advance und kann auch als Trainingsanzug für erfahrenere Triathleten verwendet werden. Er ist auch als der schnellste Einsteiger-Neoprenanzug auf dem Markt bekannt. Der Vision ist von anderen Zone3-Neoprenanzügen inspiriert, die für professionelle Schwimmer entwickelt wurden. Er ist so konzipiert, dass er den Wasserwiderstand minimiert, große Flexibilität bietet und den gesamten Oberkörper abdeckt. Er hilft, Zeit und Energie zu sparen und gleichzeitig die Ermüdung zu verringern. Die Rückseite ist außerdem stark reflektierend – ein großartiges Sicherheitsmerkmal, um im offenen Wasser leicht zu erkennen zu sein, insbesondere bei Solo-Schwimmen im Meer.

Für fortgeschrittene und kompetente Schwimmer:

Der Aspire-Neoprenanzug ist für alle, die mehr Auftrieb wünschen. Der Aspire bietet 30 % mehr Auftrieb als herkömmliche Neoprenanzüge und sorgt für mehr Flexibilität und Distanz pro Schwimmzug. Aufgrund seiner Anpassungsfähigkeit im Wasser ist er ein großartiger Anzug für Anfänger bis hin zu Profis.

Der Vanquish-Neoprenanzug wird von professionellen Schwimmern wie Josh Amberger und Tim Don geliebt. Der Vanquish ist unser am höchsten bewerteter Neoprenanzug und eignet sich besonders für Schwimmer, die ihre Schwimmzeit um Minuten verkürzen möchten. Der Vanquish sorgt für maximale Flexibilität und einen verbesserten Halt im Wasser, verringert die Ermüdung der Arme, erhöht die Effizienz im Wasser und gibt Schwimmern ultimative Bewegungsfreiheit.

Zu den weiteren Gegenständen, die Sie zum Schwimmen im offenen Wasser benötigen, gehören:

Brille

Eine gute Schwimmbrille ist für das Schwimmen im offenen Wasser absolut unerlässlich, da Sie Ihre Augen im Wasser wirklich schützen und schwimmen können müssen, ohne dass die Gläser beschlagen. Manche Schwimmbrillen sind nur für das Schwimmen im Pool geeignet und bieten im offenen Wasser keinen großen Schutz. Dies sollten Sie beim Kauf einer Schwimmbrille berücksichtigen. Unsere Top-Empfehlungen für Schwimmbrillen für offene Gewässer sind:

Die Dampfbrille

Sie eignen sich hervorragend zum Schwimmen im Innen- und Außenbereich und verfügen über ultraweiche Silikondichtungen, beschlagfreie Gläser mit 100 % UVA-/UVB-Schutz, große gebogene Gläser zum Sehen, leicht verstellbare Bänder und sowohl polarisierte als auch photochromatische Gläser.

Aspect Schwimmbrille

Auch diese sind sowohl für das Schwimmen im Pool als auch im offenen Wasser geeignet und verfügen über klare, kristallklare Gläser mit verspiegelter oder klarer Oberfläche, ein hydrodynamisches Design für schnelles, stromlinienförmiges Schwimmen, Horizont-Weitwinkelgläser für eine hervorragende Sicht, ein Schnellverstellsystem für das Band für einen einfachen, sicheren Sitz, weiche Silikondichtungen für Komfort und Schutz und 100 % UVA/UVB-Schutz mit Antibeschlagbehandlung.

Angriffsbrille

Diese Schutzbrille ist flexibel konstruiert und passt sich vielen Gesichts- und Kopfformen an. Sie verfügt über gebogene Gläser für eine bessere Sicht, polarisierte und photochromatische Gläser mit Antibeschlagbehandlung und einen flexiblen, weichen Silikonrahmen.

Sicherheitszubehör

Sicherheit im Wasser ist ein absolutes Muss. Deshalb haben wir eine Reihe von Produkten entwickelt, die für Ihre Sicherheit, Sichtbarkeit und Ihr Wohlbefinden im Wasser sorgen.

Artikel wie die Schwimmsicherheitsboje/Dry Bag 28L , die Schwimmsicherheitsboje/Hydration Control oder der Schwimmsicherheitsgürtel mit Tow Float Pouch sind unerlässlich, um im Wasser über Wasser zu bleiben. Sie verfügen über Taschen zum Aufbewahren von Gegenständen und sind in Neonfarben erhältlich, damit Sie von anderen Schwimmern und den Menschen am Ufer gesehen werden können. Schwimmbojen werden für Anfänger empfohlen, da Sie mit diesem Gerät wirklich beruhigt sein können.

Silikon-Badekappen

Diese leuchtend bunten Zone3-Badekappen sind in einer Reihe von Neonfarben erhältlich, damit Sie im Wasser leicht zu erkennen sind. Helle Badekappen werden von Schwimmsicherheitsexperten empfohlen und empfohlen. Die Zone3-Badekappen sind langlebig, bequem und leicht.

Sonstiges Zubehör

Für mehr Komfort sollten Sie in weiteres Zubehör investieren, beispielsweise in eine wasserdichte Schwimmtasche , Ersatzhandtücher oder einen mit Fleece gefütterten Parka-Bademantel, um sich nach dem Schwimmen warm zu halten. Wenn Sie die Kälte oder Kühle des offenen Wassers nicht mögen, können Sie auch unser Neopren-Zubehör ausprobieren, beispielsweise die Neopren-Badekappe , Neopren-Schwimmhandschuhe oder Neopren-Schwimmsocken , die für eine dauerhafte Isolierung sorgen und Ihre Extremitäten warm halten.

Die Hauptunterschiede zwischen dem Schwimmen im Becken und dem Schwimmen im offenen Wasser sind die fehlende Möglichkeit, sich von Wänden abzustoßen, das Fehlen von Schwimmbahnen, die einen in die richtige Richtung führen, und die Unfähigkeit, den Boden zu berühren. Dies sind alles Unterschiede, an die man sich mit der Zeit gewöhnen kann. Sie können sich an die Unterschiede anpassen, indem Sie die folgenden Techniken anwenden:

 

Sichtung

Wie bereits erwähnt, gibt es in offenen Gewässern keine Schwimmbahnen oder Bahnlinien, die Sie in die richtige Richtung weisen. Um sich im offenen Wasser orientieren zu können, müssen Sie das Sehen erlernen. Das bedeutet einfach, dass Sie beim Schwimmen üben, nach vorne zu schauen, um in der Ferne eine „Markierung“ zu finden, die Ihnen die Richtung weist. Die meisten Menschen entdecken einen Baum oder ein kleines Wahrzeichen und verwenden dies als Orientierungshilfe, wohin sie schwimmen müssen. Sie können dies in einem Schwimmbecken üben, indem Sie sich auf einen Punkt an der Wand am Ende der Bahn konzentrieren, in der Sie sich befinden, und sich nur auf diesen Punkt konzentrieren. Eine andere Möglichkeit, in einem Schwimmbecken für das Schwimmen im offenen Wasser zu trainieren, besteht darin, zu versuchen, so weit wie möglich in einer geraden Linie zu schwimmen. Bei Triathlons im offenen Wasser werden Sie zwangsläufig nach links oder rechts abdriften und mit anderen Triathleten zusammenstoßen, daher ist es eine gute Idee, diesen Punkt im Schwimmbecken zu erreichen, solange Sie können. Wenn Sie dies zum ersten Mal in offenen Gewässern üben, schwimmen Sie dicht an der Uferlinie, bis Sie es richtig hinbekommen, und gehen Sie dann weiter ins Wasser.

Wassertreten

Im offenen Wasser gibt es keine Wände, von denen man sich abstoßen oder zu denen man schwimmen kann. In einem See oder im Meer werden Sie wahrscheinlich viel Wasser treten müssen , daher ist es am besten, das Wassertreten im tiefen Ende des Schwimmbeckens zu üben.

Drehen

Bei Freiwasserwettkämpfen müssen die Teilnehmer oft eine Wasserboje umrunden, manchmal mehr als einmal pro Rennen. Sie können dies im Freiwasser trainieren, wenn Sie sich sicher fühlen, aber es ist auch eine gute Idee, dies in einem Schwimmbecken zu versuchen – wenn Sie Platz haben. Achten Sie beim Üben im Schwimmbecken darauf, dass Sie weder die Wände noch den Boden des Schwimmbeckens berühren. Üben Sie dies im Freiwasser, indem Sie um Wasserbojen herumschwimmen, wenn dies sicher ist, oder wenn Sie mit einem Freund schwimmen, verwenden Sie einander als Markierungen, um die Sie herumschwimmen.

Atmung

Im offenen Wasser ist das Atmen auf abwechselnden Seiten die am häufigsten empfohlene Atemtechnik. Es wird sich anfangs wahrscheinlich nicht natürlich anfühlen, daher ist es am besten, dies in einem Pool zu üben. Es wird empfohlen, dass Sie lernen, von der Wellenrichtung weg zu atmen, um die Wasseraufnahme zu reduzieren.

Wenn Sie beidseitig atmen, drehen Sie Kopf und Wirbelsäule mit den Schultern, atmen Sie ein und drehen Sie dann bei der nächsten Schulterrotation Ihr Gesicht.

Im Grunde ist es am einfachsten, im offenen Wasser durch den Mund einzuatmen und auszuatmen, wenn der Kopf unter Wasser ist, ohne zur Seite zu atmen. Tun Sie, was sich für Sie am natürlichsten anfühlt und womit Sie sich am sichersten fühlen. Es ist eine gute Idee, beim Training viele verschiedene Techniken auszuprobieren und zu erkennen, dass sich Ihre bevorzugte Atemtechnik ändert, wenn Sie mit unterschiedlichen Geschwindigkeiten und Intensitäten schwimmen.

 

Schwimmtechnik

Im offenen Wasser brauchst du einen Schwimmzug mit einer etwas höheren Schlagfrequenz als im Pool. Das hilft dir, den Schwung beizubehalten, wenn du in unruhigem Wasser bist.

Die meisten Freiwasserschwimmer entscheiden sich für das Kraulen. Daher ist es eine gute Idee, sicherzustellen, dass Sie mit diesem Schwimmstil vertraut sind und ihn über längere Zeiträume beibehalten können. Sie müssen sich mit jedem Schwimmstil, den Sie wählen, wohl fühlen.

Es empfiehlt sich, sich an andere Techniken wie das Brustschwimmen zu gewöhnen, da hierfür weniger Energie verbraucht wird als für das Kraulen und es passieren kann, dass Sie in eine Situation geraten, in der Sie momentan nur noch das Brustschwimmen schaffen.

Our speed cuffs are iconic… A game changing invention that made getting wetsuits off quickly and easily in T1, out of the swim and onto the bike. This ‘simple’ feature saves valuable time for athletes racing, didn’t exist 16 years ago. We’re pretty proud of our speed cuffs, a concept now on swim wetsuits throughout the triathlon industry.

Challenge Roth 2025 Recap   A race like no other and one for the history books. For the first time ever, Challenge Roth saw a non-wetsuit swim for both the pros and age groupers! With lots of people scrambling for swimskins when the call was made, we were proud to be right there in the thick of it, being able to support athletes in and out of the water, as the official swim sponsor.   A huge thank you to everyone who came down to our test swims, chatted to the team and took the plunge with ZONE3. From first strokes to final strides, your energy made the weekend.   Whether it was your first full distance race or you know Roth like the back of your hand, you reminded us why we do this: for the shared grit, passion, and love of the triathlon. 🎥 @jacktriathlon 📍 @challengeroth

There’s a lot of kit to think about for a triathlon. ✅ The perfect fitting wetsuit ✅ Doubling up on swim caps for warmth and to hold goggles in place ✅ Goggles suitable for the light conditions (& that won’t fog up!) ✅ Anti chafe balm - does what it says on the tin ✅ Sunglasses to protect your eyes on the bike and run ✅ Stretchy laces to save time in transition. These are just a *few* of the things you need to pack for race day. But don’t panic. We’ve got the FULL kit list, so you can tick it off item by item. Comment ‘packing list’ and we’ll DM it to you 👊

Zips go on the back, people! For newbies putting on their first ever triathlon or swim specific wetsuit, we get it, it can be confusing to know which way around the suit should go. Surf wetsuits can have zips on the front or back, swimrun wetsuits are often on the front, and shorties vary too. But FYI all triathlon wetsuits zip up at the back. We’ve been popping up at lots of different events and lakes around the UK the last few months, helping people into wetsuits who haven’t worn one before. And we have seen a lot of people trying to put them on backwards. So if you are a newbie or know a newbie, this is for you 👊 📍 The Quays, Mytchett @quays_watersports @nice1wetsuitscoaching

We’ve seen so many people at events over the last few weeks wearing their swim goggles on their head waaaay before they’re due to swim. Only put your goggles on as you walk down to the water and are about to get in, this stops the heat from your head causing them to fog up! We also recommend splashing your face and dunking your goggles in the water before you start swimming - to eliminate the temperature difference on each side of the lens. And DON’T TOUCH the inside of the lens with your fingers, you’ll wear off the anti-fog coating. 📍 The Quays, @quays_watersports @nice1wetsuitscoaching, Mytchett Lake #tipsfornewbies #triathlon #openwaterswim

What a weekend up at Windermere 💦⛰️ The Great North Swim brought big energy, beautiful scenery, and plenty of Zone3 kit in the water. We had an awesome crew of ambassadors taking on the 5km swim, shoutout to @livs_is_livs who did it in skins 👏 and to @chloedooley who showed up and gave it everything. And a massive congrats to Zone3 Pro @j0m3sf1 for taking the win in the SwimRun - absolutely flying out there, despite the weather warnings! Open water season is officially on, and we’re buzzing to be part of it. @great_swim

This weekend, the Zone3 team also volunteered at the incredible 24-Hour Swim Relay at Shepperton @levelwateruk 🏊‍♀️ We're proud to support Level Water, a charity that gives children with disabilities the opportunity to learn to swim, offering 1-to-1 lessons that empower kids with confidence, movement, and freedom in the water. The 24 hour event brought swimmers together for a non-stop relay challenge, raising vital funds to provide these lessons across the UK. To everyone swimming, supporting, and staying awake through the night: thank you for making a difference. This is what sport is all about.

Blenheim Palace Triathlon 2025 brought together athletes, ambition, and the unmistakable energy of race season. 💥 As the Official Swim Sponsor, Zone3 was proud to support the event which included the British and English Sprint Distance Championships and GB Age-Group Team Qualifier. With athletes of every level pushing their limits and our ambassadors leading from the front, it was a weekend to remember. The rain came down, but the spirit? Unshakeable. The determination? Unstoppable. The atmosphere? Electric ⚡ From first-time triathletes to GB hopefuls, every stroke, step, and smile was a reminder of why we do this. Thanks to everyone who stopped by to chat! And huge kudos to everyone who raced! @blenheimpalacetriathlon

Are you ready for the Arla Great North Swim in June? @zone3official takes you through ‘sighting’ in open water, so you swim in the right direction and don’t zig zag your way around. Practicing sighting before the event will make sure you swim in a straight line and ensures you don’t swim further than you need to on the day. If you’re swimming in the pool, why not grab a bottle and use it as a marker at the end of your lane. Try to lift your eyes or head to look at it every few strokes. If you can practice in the open water, a landmark in the distance is a good marker to swim towards too! #openwaterswimming #zone3 #zone3official #greatnorthswim2025
