I would recommend a bike fit before buying the bike to know what size and adjustments you need to make to make it really comfortable, it could even save you money in the end.
BUY A POOL BUOY. The easiest thing a beginner swimmer can do is use one. It will help your buoyancy so you dont get tired trying not to sink. It will keep your hips higher in the water which will help your speed in the water and teach you the correct position in the water. Do your warm ups. Use the pool buoy for moat of your laps. And then take it off for the last 10mins or so. FOCUS on keeping your core tight and body straight and level.
Really good advice, and although I don't personally have a pool buoy, my swimming coach does and I train with it frequently. One of my 'issues' is that my body sinks when I swim. I recently completed an Oceanman 5k though, and a pleasant surprise swimming in saltwater was that my body was more buoyant, so I didn't sink as much as I do in a swimming pool.
I wish I had full free time to prepare for the Ironman. But yes I do work, however I'm lucky that my hours are flexible because I work for myself. I have a video coming out very soon going over my routine/training schedule and what my job is.

This series is awesome. Keep up the great work, you have been so motivating for me.
Thank you so much. Ironically, me motivating some of you, circles back and motives me.
Very good video. Enjoyed it a lot!
Thank you :) I'm glad you enjoyed it. And I appreciate you commenting and supporting 💪🏼

Really good advice, and that's exactly what I did.
Had a bike fit before buying, and after buying. Some of the best money I've spent on my bike.
I am also learning how to swim for a olympic triathlon. Great video and series
Wow, good luck with the triathlon! That's impressive.
here's a life changer for some: i've managed to find some clear goggles with a correction (-2.0 for me) for 20 quid

Good stuff! I just signed up for my first triathlon and have 8 months to do the same for a 70.3.
Good luck Ray! You're going to smash it 💪🏼
20 laps is 1k not 2 but enjoyed the vid. going for 100 laps is pretty bonkers!
Thanks - my bad 😅
Keep up the great work! Can I ask what 70.3 you are signed up for?
I'll be doing the Ironman 70.3 Vietnam 2025 in Da Nang.
I am running my first 10 k this Sunday . Why do you have such goood video editing and. Shooting by the way
Good luck with your first 10k! Have you been training much for it?
I have good video editing because I am amazing video editors 🤩
What’s your current swim pace?
Honestly, no idea. Although a couple of weeks ago I swam my first Oceanman 5k in 1 hour 48 minutes.
Hi man, do you work or you have full free time to do that ironman ? because the prepa is a lot of time
