GregP Sep 2008 10:32pm, 4 Sep 2008 6,610 posts	0 GregP There's nothing that springs to mind website-wise that I'd recommend, but I would recommend "Swim training for Triathletes" as a book (will dig out author tomorrow), which if nothing else contains some truly useful line drawings. I won't recommend anything TI, which will probably get me flamed.

HappyG(rrr) Sep 2008 11:42am, 8 Sep 2008 821 posts	0 HappyG(rrr) Well Greg, I went to to a swimming club for first time on Sunday and wore my beach shorts (normal swim wear for non swim-afleets). Felt like I'd worn clogs to a 10K run!
GordonG Sep 2008 11:42am, 8 Sep 2008 3,123 posts	0 GordonG GregP/Barky - TI: are you referring to Total Immersion? Two of my work colleagues absolutely swear by it, changed their swimming lives completely. never tried it myself, in your opinion what's wrong with it?
