WHAT'S A SNORKEL FOR?
It allows you to swim without interrupting the stroke with your breathing, concentrating on your technique. Without the need to breathe, the swimmer's head remains still, making it easier to control and observe body rotation.
Some research shows an improvement in aerobic capacity in swimmers who use the front snorkel, as the body adapts to cope with carbon dioxide in the same tube through which oxygen enters.
VARIATIONS IN USE
You can do series of kicks with the front snorkel, as this will allow a very realistic position of the swimmer's head, still submerged.
With the use of the pullbuoy, you can work exclusively on the arm, concentrating on the correct pulling and recovery technique.
USE COUNCIL
Initial training sessions should be moderate in intensity and volume, until the swimmer is more accustomed to and able to do stronger sessions.
Before swimming, make sure the snorkel is comfortable and snug on your head.
If you experience breathing difficulties with water ingress, we recommend using a nose clip.
