I bought this after seeing Taren on You Tube, as I've always struggled with breathing whilst swimmingand never been comfortable.
I'm a half decent rider and can run reasonably, 3km sub 14mins on a good day, but swimming comfortably has always eluded me.
After reading and practicing the first set of drills, I found myself to be far more relaxed in the water, was able to breathe easier and was able to complete 400m in ten minutes. Not earth shattering quick, but half a minute quicker than my best and not exhausted at the end.
It's an easy read, informative and has made( to me) a big difference in my swimming and my approach to swimming .
Taren takes a no nonsense approach , I recommend this if you want to improve.
It has made a vast difference to me already. Thank you Taren!!
* Further to my review - I have been following the principles of this book and training method for a couple of weeks. In that time, my swimming has improved no end, but mostly I have now been able to swim 400 m comfortably and more than two minutes quicker than when I first started in June 2022. I have no doubt that Tarens methods have had a huge impact and I now have confidence that I didn't have before. An excellent book, get it if you want to improve.

Of all three disciplines in triathlon, swimming is the one dreaded the most by age-group triathletes, many of whom have had little formal experience in the water. Fortunately, of the three sports, swimming might be the easiest in which to make improvements. Triathlon Swimming Foundations provides a simple, straightforward system developed BY a triathlete FOR triathletes, allowing them to become comfortable and confident in the water using a system of triathlon-specific drills and techniques.
Triathletes who follow this program are sure to breathe easily in the water without panic, eliminate sinking legs, gain previously elusive speed, and swim smoothly in a triathlon from the start line right into transition, with plenty of energy left to take on the rest of the race.
Taren Gesell is a successful age-group endurance athlete who originally became known for his wildly popular YouTube channel, Instagram account and podcast, where he shares tips, tricks, hacks, scientifically backed research, and time-tested knowledge to help new and developing endurance athletes get to their start lines confident and their finish lines strong. Taren is the founder of MōTTIV, which offers a full-service endurance training app that guides athletes of every ability level. The app offers an inclusive, welcoming community of amateur endurance athletes around the world who are working hard to be the best version of themselves every day!

Hur kundrecensioner och betyg fungerar
Kundrecensioner, inklusive stjärnrecensioner av produkter, hjälper kunder att lära sig mer om produkten och avgöra om det är rätt produkt för dem.
Vi använder inte ett enkelt medelvärde för att beräkna den totala stjärnrecensionen och den procentuella fördelningen per stjärna. Istället tar vårt system hänsyn till saker som till exempel hur nyligen en recension har gjorts och om recensenten köpte artikeln på Amazon. Det analyserar också recensioner för att verifiera deras trovärdighet.

Never had a swimming lesson to sprint triathlon!!
Recenserad i Storbritannien den 26 maj 2022
I recently completed my first triathlon. I managed a sprint distance and as I’m sure you hear all the time for me the part I was least experienced in was the swim having never had a swimming lesson in my life. I wasn’t able to commit to a block of lessons but I was able to follow all the advice in the triathlon swimming foundations booklet. thanks to the booklet I was able to complete my first ever “competitive” swim in 15:55 and feel comfortable going straight onto the bike after only 14 weeks of structured swimming in my life.

Very useful book with simple instructions
Recenserad i Storbritannien den 20 april 2021
Brilliant book / guide with useful drills to build confidence and better swimming technique. Taren has a light hearted and engaging writing style so this is an easy to read book.
I look forward to working through the drills and being a better swimmer for my first Olympic distance triathlon.

Practical programming to build a great foundation
Recenserad i Storbritannien den 24 juni 2021
Brought this ahead of my 12 week training block for my first ever triathlon. Really helped me build solid foundations & PR on race day and get out the water feeling fresh. Definitely recommended for any beginner triathletes.

Simple and straightforward ( semplice e diretto)
Recenserad i Italien 🇮🇹 den 29 september 2020
A book that shows you how to work on the most common mistakes of swimmers on triathlon. Some things seem elementary, but actually useful.
It would also be useful to be filmed with a video to improve the proposed exercises.
(Un libro che si mostra come lavorare sugli errori più comuni di nuotatori nel triathlon. Alcune cose sembrano elementari, ma in effetti utili. sarebbe anche utile farsi riprendere con un video per migliorare gli esercizi proposti )
