What is the purpose of snorkeling?
Share
Hello.
Today is a leap year, which occurs once every four years!
That means it's already March.
The final JO qualifying rounds have already finished in some regions.
JO, let's keep practicing every day for the Paris Olympic Trials!!
It's cold and the flu is going around, so please take good care of your health so you can perform at your best.
Now, about snorkeling.
I think everyone uses a variety of snorkels.
Soltex Swim also sells snorkels!!
The color is only black. It's cool!!
So what exactly is it used for?
①Improves cardiopulmonary function
When using a snorkel, you will first find yourself in a situation where you can't breathe easily.
Since they have to breathe through a thin tube, they need "suction power."
Also, when you start swimming, turn and dive underwater, water will accumulate in the tube and you will have to drain the water before you can swim, so "exhaling power" is also important!
That means it will be strengthened.
In addition, since you will be swimming while having difficulty breathing, it will improve your cardiopulmonary function.

If water accumulates in the transparent part, you won't be able to breathe, so it's important to have the strength to exhale!! It's best to have it all out!
② It becomes easier to be aware of your swimming posture and movements underwater.
The most important thing when swimming is posture.
Even the slightest disturbance will affect your time and your swimming will become erratic.
When you swim using a snorkel, you no longer have to breathe, so you can be more conscious of your posture!
You can also see how you are paddling by swimming with your face in the water.
By eliminating the breathing movement, the focus was on the arms, legs, and breathing.
This leads to awareness of posture and form.
If you use it during drills, you can effectively improve your stroke!!
Would you like to improve your swimming skills by using a snorkel?
It may be difficult to use for the first time, but why not give it a try to become faster?
There will also be new student enrollment and swimming school club changes in April.
How about holding a trial swim at that time?
We look forward to hearing from you!
