About 10 years ago I read your book, The Four Hour Body. The swimming fascinated me so I watched some TH-cam videos on how to do it. It TRULY transformed my swimming. I'm just getting back into it now since I've found walking and biking too hard on my knees these days. Thank you!
It is a concise and methodical philosophy behind the TI framework. It does require at least 10 hours or more of pool exercises to start to relax and incorporate. The main 1st critical drills are the spearhead arms and rolling to breathe. Once you can relax in the rolling breathe technique it all begins to make sense. I started these drills about 6 weeks ago, by watching the Terry TH-cam drills for TI. Every other day, at least 30 minutes. I am hooked now, much stronger and can swim without too much exhaustion. It feels incredible, but I am still a beginner, but can do 10 laps. I started out barely able to make it one length 6 months ago. The TI drills are enormously beneficial and rewarding. Not to mention, but I am gaining a strong physique.
When I try T1, my kick timing is too late almost like when my right arm is going for recovery, my right leg kicks. Any tips of fixing this?
I am working on a simple method for teaching the 2 best kick. Our amazing TI coaches do excellent work, and I wish to support both coaches and swimmers by putting together a sequence to simplify the kick.
I am so glad you have benefitted so much. Your experience will be a great inspiration to others who wish to self-teach. All things are possible. Happiest of laps to you💕🙏🏼🌈🏊🏾🌊
I did Ti years ago and it was life changing.
03:30 For the main swimming part
Couldn't ask for a better person to 'sell' the idea of TI.
I look forward to trying this out in the pool next time I set off for a swim.
Amazing stuff, i started doing TI and everything they say is correct. Such an awesome technique. I can practice for hours and loose sense of time.
you all probably dont give a shit but does anyone know of a tool to get back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow forgot my password. I love any help you can offer me.
excellently explained👍
Trying this tomorrow.
Outstanding!
RIP Terry Laughlin
Oh no, I didn't realised he'd died :(
Thank you for your kind words. May you enjoy a lifetime of joyful swimming💕🌊

Dear Ms. Laughlin, although it has now been 3 years since Terry passed, I go back to his videos again and again to refresh my delight in his method and delivery. These youtubes will never get old. I have not been in the water for 7 months due to COVID and then a knee replacement. The first thing I did before I got in the pool was to go back and spend time with him to gain my courage and enthusiasm for the water. I can listen to his Tim Ferris podcast many times.
@Paul Firmani It’s so wonderful to hear that you continue to enjoy and benefit from Terry’s enormous enthusiasm for helping people to love the water (and Tim too, since he has allowed us to reach so many more people). TI has always been purpose-driven, so it’s extremely gratifying to hear positive feedback. Best to you🙏
Thanks Tim!
I watched Terry's dvd but he does not explain his hips and legs as clear as you do. Tim Ferriss, could you explain it more in detail? I still can't swim like TI... :(
Perfect!
Esto es oro, solo hay que estar preparado para seguír el hilo y llegar a
la madriguera de conejo.
I'm on a sabbatical and so decided to try this method at the 15 meter hotel pool and it works. Session 1: literally YouTubing this video just before the first swim. The swim immediately felt effortless. One thing though, I naturally always turn my head left to breath but on the videos I notice that the swimmer alternates. Thus, when practicing, I am purposefully cueing my less dominant side - breathing on the right - until the movement is as strong as my dominant left hand side. This is difficult. But I'm getting there. Can't wait for the second session at the pool.
He says the Efficiency of kicking of an average swimmer is about 3%. What is the efficiency of the armstroke?I allready tried to find scientific stuff about this but found nothing.Does anybody know?
If you consider that you start and finish at the same level, that is no increase in height, and finish at zero speed, then the efficiency is zero, because you have expended energy and wind up with neither kinetic nor potential energy.
@ Lu Tze Are you saying that I think I know more than I do or that Tim Ferriss thinks that he knows more than he does?
@@pauleohl unless one stays in the same place the whole time they swim the efficiency cannot be zero; there is energy spent overcoming drag and displacement simply to move the body from one place to another.
@@dhead64 Physics lesson: Efficiency is defined as change in energy of a system/energy expended. The swimmer starts and ends at the same elevation and starts and ends at the same velocity namely zero. So, if there is no change in energy then all the energy expended gains nothing (from a physics point of view) and his efficiency is zero.
@@pauleohl If the direction of travel is vertical then elevation would have some relevance to your "lesson". It isn't, so it doesn't.
If your travel WAS vertical then you be overcoming drag, inertia, AND buoyancy. Class dismissed.
Hey...
It works
Downunder
I have just begun to learn TI
But having difficulties keep feet afloat due to low bodyfat
My coach suggested kicking harder but it contradicts with the idea of swim effortlessly
Please advise for you seem to have low fat too
Relaxing in the water as much as you can will help. I spent a few hours on tough drills for me and then moved on to the next. Astonishingly, going back to the earlier drills became easier after working through the drills closer to whole stroke swimming. What drills are you doing?
Stick with the TI. It gets into the techniques to get you legs up regardless of body fat.
Did you end up solving this? I also have zero fat on my legs, picked up TI 4 months ago, improved from doing barely 50m to 400m and still going. Not sure if you found the solution but what helps me after each pull when you are in skate position, I make sure feet together, squeeze my glutes, bring hips slighltly in and point my toes to back which lifts my body up. I call it a reset button to make sure I am streamlined. Also my feet are always together except when kicking and pointing back. When I kick I roll to the centre and its more of a small flick to minimise the drop. The best way my TI coach told me is to contract the knee then release the knee muscle, very minimum bend.
Confusing..What does "streamline" mean exactly?
A streamline is the path a particle of water follows as it travels past your body. A "streamlined body" is one with minimal drag because it is smooth and has no abrupt changes in contour.
That's part of it, keeping your body in as straight a line as possible, from head to toe. The other part is keeping your body as horizontal as possible to minimize your cross-section area which is what creates most of the drag in swimming. In cycling, the biggest factor limiting speed is not pedaling power, but the resistance of the wind. Pedaling a bike in a crouch you might be able to 25 mph or so. But if you put a fiberglass faring over the bike to streamline the profile of rider-on-bike to reduce wind drag, you can go 100 mph. Similarly, in swimming the resistance of the water is the biggest limiting factor. So, reducing this is far more important than building muscle to stroke harder.
In TI when you learn to keep your body horizontal you can instantly feel how much further you go on each stroke. It feels like the water suddenly "lets go" of you. But it's a skill that takes practice. I am not as efficient as Ferris claims to be and it took me a lot longer to get there. But it does work as advertised.
@@dekobraz this is a beautiful explanation
Best video i've seen leeching a persons image, video and fan base to promote a non Tim Ferris supported company
Tim learned swimming from Total Immersion. Leeching?
I came here because he mentionned it in a podcast (with chris sacca)
@4:23 what position?
Fuselage position
5:25 no coach will tell you to put your hand flat on the water
Must have been doing it wrong, sank like a stone.
tom ferriss is teriffic
Facile quand on ne comprend pas l’anglais ......
This is good stuff but if you're looking for something even more simple, I know of another slow technique that allows your inner swimmer to emerge naturally. Requiring little or no effort. And can be accomplished in a single session.
Would you like to share it please?
Seems like a secret method ^^
