Swimming Drills for every Stroke by Ruben J. Guzman.

I learn swimming from The Total Immersion way(I bought books and DVDs and I was impressed.) I learned that all streamline, body rotaion etc....but I don't know the strokes well. Then I went to library to borrow this book. It helped me a lots. Basiclly the author's concept is pretty match to the TI way and he gave more details on the drills. Anyway, I like this book very much. So I bought the book and fellow the drills for my every day swimming.

Excellent

This book herlped me in teaching swimming lessons and being a swim team coach.

A great beginning swimming book

I was looking for a book for me to use to help teach my kids (5 & 7) to swim the various strokes. This book is absolutely perfect. It breaks down each stroke into individual components and allows your child to practice each portion before putting all the pieces together and swim the "real" stroke. I was trying for weeks to help my 7 year old with her breast stroke, then I got this book and saw a dramatic improvement in just one lesson. This book is perfect for a parent or a coach to help teach beginning swimmers how to correctly swim each stroke. One piece of advice. Your child will never learn to swim well by doing lap after lap. They need specific instruction on how to execute each stroke, otherwise they will just reinforce bad habits. One more thing, the other book I have is Total Immersion, which I think is great. However, you need a book like Guzman's to get the basics of each swimming stroke. I do some of the drills in TI, but I need Guzman too. Plus, TI only talks about freestyle.

VERY WELL WRITTEN AND EASY TO INCORPARATE IT

I TOOK THIS BOOK OUT AT MY PUBLIC LIBRARY AND REALLY WAS EASY TO UNDERSTAND THE TECHNIQUES AND USE THEM DURING MY WORKOUTS. IF YOU HAVE A WEAK STROKE, THIS BOOK WILL HELP YOU USE DRILLS TO ELEVATE THAT STROKE. A MUST READ!!

This book is a wonderful assset to swimmers of all abilities

In this book, Mr. Guzman presents key drills for each of the swimming strokes, starts, turns, and finishes. The drills presented are clear, easy to understand, and would be of value to swimmer's of any ability level. This is a wonderful compilation of drills from a distinguished coach in the sport of swimming!
