    Checking my stroke and offering some technique tips to think about. Swimming in my Endless Pool, practicing in a new blueseventy wetsuit. This Helix is the same as 2015, but with slightly shorter legs for an easier/quicker transition, and also with some custom printing.
    There’s lot’s of different ways to swim, but here is my take on what you could try to help your swimming. If you need to, wear flippers when practicing. Be sure not to slow down or tense up your recovery. Keep your arm relaxed and drop it into the water (not tensed and placed gently). Let me know what else you struggle with and I’ll post more specific vids. Hope this helps some one out there.. :)

    Rebecca Adlington, the former Olympic swimmer, has announced that she and her husband Harry Needs have split after just 18 months of marriage following a series of rows since the birth of their first child.

    The 27-year-old double gold medallist said the separation from fellow ex-swimmer Needs, 24, was “on amicable terms” and insisted the pair “remain close friends”.

    The couple tied the knot in August 2014 at a rural wedding venue in Staffordshire and Adlington gave birth to their daughter in June last year.

    Read The Telegraph and Rebecca Adlington

    It’s after much thought and sadness that we confirm our separation. It is on amicable terms and we still remain close friends. We move forward with respect for one another and our focus and commitment is on parenting our gorgeous daughter Summer. This will be our only comment on this private matter.

    This is some of the best footage of the Olympic champion swimmer in action, especially from underwater. In the movie the swim was speeded up–here it is slowed down so you can appreciate Johnny’s technique. Most “official” videos from competition were filmed strictly from the deck, and do not show his efficient freestyle.
