In this video, I guide you through techniques to improve your water confidence and swimming skills, which are vital for Air Force (PJ, CCT, SR, TACP) and Naval Special Warfare (Navy SEAL, SWCC). Learn how to master swimming techniques, from perfecting your strokes to bilateral breathing. Learn the importance of the egg beater kick for efficient water treading, finning for endurance, and how to master your underwater swims. I share a detailed roadmap to master swimming and water confidence.

I thought I was a solid swimmer. However, after "water week" in OSUT, I realized just how garbage I was. This dawned on me while I drowned for 5 minutes straight for the treading portion of the test
I’m at oust right now an comfortable in water what they do to you ?
@@user-jo7ts3bq9u just remember dog, it'll end lol
@@user-jo7ts3bq9uas you have found out it’s not that bad, for the future though keep hydrating and taking care of your body.
I had a buddy that was attending the PJ pipeline. He could run 1.5 miles in 8:50 mins. He could max the push ups, pull ups, and sit ups. He was the fittest guy I knew. But he dropped from the pipeline. The insane amount of reps for the “crossover” portion of the water confidence got to him.
I could not swim . Started going to indoor base gym and started with floating in 4 ft side and slowy moved into deeper water. Eventually asking strangers and a navy seal technique video I was combat swimming across pool. I eventually was not scared and got to diving in deepest 14 feet end to bottom. Because during Green Beret pre selection they ask us to dive down and take a brick weight and tread water with brick above. Head long as we could
I have similar stats what should I do to prep for the intense swims? Genuine question I want to be a PJ more than anything.
thank you for making this video and the information in the description
THIS IS WHAT I BEEN WAITING FOR 😯😯
Spectacular video
Thank you coach
great video getting ready for dive school
This is verryyy good thanks alot !!
The swims were everything. If you want to pass assessment and selection become phenomenal at OCP underwaters. Perfect buddy-breathing. You must use the egg-beater kick and the frog-kick. Nail these and you will be in strong shape to pass. Strong. Legs. WIN.
Swin technique is very important
Great
@SOFPrepCoach what’s your thoughts on deependfitness? two marsoc owners and they are growing. And thanks for this video I really need to get better at swimming.🤙🏽
what is good techniques to practice not getting water down your nose while working with water in your mask?
How many miles a week should we be running before adding swimming in our program? Should we have a little bit of an aerobic base before we add swimming on top of the other stuff we do(lifting, sometimes rucking, calisthenics, running) or we can add swimming in our program off the jump?
No, start swimming ASAP. The longer you wait the longer it will be before you learn the technique and are proficient
@@SOFPrepCoachthank you 🙏
@@joem5841thank you for your input!
Which of these is the best bang for buck in terms of water confidence? (As a person that is not comfortable underwater at all)
Learn the technique
Just curious why you never tailor any videos to marsoc
Wdym? He has titled videos like "How to Improve Rucking (SF, SEAL, PJ, MARSOC)". He acknowledged that his videos will work for marsoc candidates within the tiles and descriptions of some videos. This swimming video, rucking videos & weightlifting videos can all apply to MARSOC, it's not much different.
The principles in these videos are universal to all branches. Let me know if there’s something marsoc specific which you would like to see though
I can’t tread water no matter what. So the idea of treading with weight is horrifying. All the other stuff isn’t necessarily easy but doable
Are you doing the egg beater kick?
There are links to specific technique videos I like here - sofprepcoach.com/9-steps-to-master-swimming-and-water-confidence/
@@SOFPrepCoach yes I struggle with that. Just have to get more comfortable i guess
It's messed up but my swim coach used to say, "If a dead body can float,so can you". The secret is to get relaxed.
Eggbeater is one way of treading water but if you watch aquatic mammals like seals they don't do that. They do slow back and forth fin flips when they're vertical. Do the same with your feet while keeping your arms bent "chicken wing style" but relaxed. You should automatically just bob like a seal.
Stay relaxed and your body's natural buoyancy will keep you afloat.
What's your body fat percentage? If you BF% is too low, you'll struggle with staying above water. Best to have at least 12%.
@@thijs5931 oh I’m fairly fat. Probably 20%
Big ole sign on the wall that says no life guard on duty.. oops. Im getting better though!
