YOU ASK, WE ANSWER
I am an ex rugby player who has taken to swimming as my joints do not enjoy running any more. I really enjoy wild swimming, however I find myself getting increasingly frustrated. At my local lake I keep being over taken by people who I know I am fitter than. I try hard to apply power and work on my catch but I struggle to get any speed. As a naturally fit and competitive man it puts me off wanting to go swimming as I feel disheartened, is there anything I can do to get faster?
