Spoke to a swim coach today, just general chit chat.
He told me a big thing swimmers do is inhale bad air.
i.e when swimming and you lift your head to breath, because alot of people still have air in there lungs they dont always take in full lungs of air, and so they dont get enough oxygen into the blood.
This means that you tire quicker.
He told me that before you come up to take a mouthfull of air you should exhale underwater, thus when taking air its all fresh and clean.
Its not something i had thought of, just thought i would pass it on.
