TLog: Swimming practice for this week

Second swim practice this week. Covered 20 laps, as I did on Tuesday. Same drills as before. Today's practice was better than Tuesday's. More relaxed.

Here are my observations:

1. Patience in practice: Learning new techniques takes time. Keep practicing and focus on ingraining the motion.
2. Surf's up: Geek telling Cody this, "Long, slow, smooth..." Taking it easy and slowly and focus on smooth motion.
3. Tendency for vertical movement (bob up and down). Focus on minimizing bobbing. Enables smooth head turn to breathe.
4. Gliding: starting to get the feel. Just relax and slow down everything. And surprisingly the gliding motion takes over.
5. Reaching out with the hands helps me glide better.
6. Easier to breath on the right than left. Perhaps this is because I am used to breathing on the right.
