Chapiters:
00:00 Why hidden technique errors leak speed even when fitness is high
00:32 How late breathing timing increases drag by flaring the legs
01:35 Why fixing breathing timing can instantly clean up leg position
02:44 How keeping the head too low forces a lift that kills swim balance
04:03 Why pressing down and up instead of back shortens effective propulsion
05:16 How vertical force paths waste effort and fail to create forward speed
06:28 Why delaying force at the front catch creates more speed later
08:25 How slow, single-arm drills expose and fix silent speed leaks
----------------------
Most swimmers don’t struggle because they lack fitness.
They struggle because their technique creates silent speed leaks — mistakes that slow them down without them even realizing it.

In this video, I break down three real swimmers and show you exactly where speed disappears in their stroke — and more importantly, why it happens.

These aren’t beginner mistakes.
They’re compensation patterns I see all the time in athletes who train consistently, work hard, and still feel like swimming is harder than it should be.

You’ll see:
• How late breathing timing creates instability and drag
• Why putting the head too low can actually break balance and kill momentum
• How misdirected force underwater wastes power instead of creating speed

Each example is analyzed the same way I work with the athletes I coach:
identify the leak, understand the mechanism behind it, and apply a fix that actually transfers into your swimming.

If you’ve ever felt like:
• your effort doesn’t translate into speed
• swimming feels heavy for no clear reason
• you’re doing “everything right” but something is still off

this video is for you.

At the end, I also explain how these leaks fit into a bigger technical system — and where most swimmers should actually focus first if they want to get faster without swimming harder.
