I have no idea with swimming competitions, but doing long distance training, we really don't use kick. It's like her as well, more on arms. It's because the kick makes you tired more quickly, taking more muscle oxygen, and more effort. When in long distance, and you're doing 5-10KM, the kick will be so tiring. So we just use arms. And it's true! If you look down, as in look straight down and not just tilted, you become faster. Long distance also teaches to extend your arms as much as you can, really stretch your body to its thinnest mode. I'm glad a swimmer like this has this technique, it's pretty cool and actually makes sense for long distance.
Katie only use 1 beat kick in the mid of the race .. this is outrageous style. .. her streamline and bouyancy are so perfect... I think she has put so much effort on her core balance.
"Leg's are for Dragging" - said every successful middle and distance swimmer ever.
Legs are only for emergencies😂
She is amazing! Can't wait to watch her at the World Championships in June!
What date? (don't tell me I missed them already 😔)
Ledecky is probably watching these TH-camrs and analyzing who is getting it right. She should start a TH-cam channel for that. Could be all time hit
An actual use case of a reaction video 😅
@@pradeepalhan Probably she too busy train to spend that amount of thyme on analysis bear claws tube much canal sis lead to two much second guessing of smooth tech unique.
@@rbrb3625ye, it can be just because of a right scientific/experimental mindset
I've always been a poor freestyler, compared to the other strokes, and today I had a great swimmer look at it underwater. He said 1. my hips were low and my head is a bit high like I'm swimming uphill and 2. I'm using arm strength instead of relying on hip rotation to generate power. I always thought I just needed to get stronger at pulling but I'm excited by the idea of using less arm power and more rotational drive. Hopefully that will make it easier to generate speed with less fatigue if I can make the changes.
Those are some great observations! Good luck and keep up the great work :)
Was just looking for this! Thank you!
No problem! Happy swimming!
Thank you!
Wow this is great thank you 😊
10:01 This is the smoothest front crawl I have ever seen. no splash! WOW!
Thanks for the analyses, Fares.
It is smooth, but look upo some old videos of Becky Adlington. Her stroke was on a nother level of smooth.
Best app I have ever had, bar none! And your support is amazing, plus you listen to suggestions. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing, Steven! Really appreciate it!
Great video! What app are you using to make all those annotations in the video? thanks!
Yay another video how don’t you have 1 million subs and can you please do analysis of Lilly kings breaststroke
That was a ONE beat kick. She employs 1,2 and 4 on her longer events. A great skill to master.
Thanks
We can all appreciate athletes who succeed with unconventional technique.
going to be the new conventional
Liu Zige's butterfly please and I would like to have your opinion about her 200 butterfly WR which I think is very hard to break and it will stand for a long time.
Thank you!
Buenísimo, muchas gracias por compartir su trabajo.
Muchas gracias por tus amables palabras!
Genius!
That almost one sided kick is very connected and forceful. Not many kicks but powerful and connected side change kick, timed right moment pang.
Analyze Romanchuk - especially his hand entry and the beginning of his catch ... it's super weird. (Saw it in the underwater shots of the Tokyo 1500 final.)
Can you compare some old footage of (say) Shane Gould (2 beat kick), Janet Evans or Tracey Wickham, with Katie.
Janet with thosr unconvensional arms especially
Katie Ledecky swims faster than me with a glass of chocolate milk on her head😂
I suggest you analyze Nathan Adrian and distance swimmer cindarella story Bobby Finke and remind us of his bio. Might be fun to see what some of these elite swimmers eat days leading up to big race.
The distance queen!
Sun Yang, please!
素晴らしい体幹と、キックの強さ、キャッチからプッシュの前腕の力強さに圧倒されます🎉
大好きです✨
Would you analyze Myhalivari-farkas' style, please?
Please put it captions
I look at how deep she pulls and whether she pulls under her body. Any thoughts? I really enjoy these videos. Thanks!
Analyse Ian Thorpe - how did he gat away with such a slow stroke rate?
Great suggestion!
His feet size
her strength
I wonder if you can get footage of Dawn Fraser- 1st woman to break 1:00 in the 100 m freestyle and Gold medal winner of 1956, 60, and 64 Olympics
Great suggestion!
Please do Sun Yang
Nice suggestion!
Can you analyse Sun Yang ?
What kind of video analytics tool are you using on your mobile?
Hi there! We use www.getonform.com/
Great video.
The perfect follow up in my view would be to analyze Janet Evans.
While Ledecky does everything “right”, Evans did everything “wrong”, but was a champion anyway.
Do those champions with “bad form” have unique attributes which make the “mistakes”’correct for their body types?
Or would they be even faster if their technique was “correct”?
(Outside swimming, another example of this is the sprinter Michael Johnson).
Thanks for your support Matt, and great remarks! Different body types definitely cause different stroke techniques, but it all comes down to efficiency: reducing drag and increasing speed multiplied by effort!
do sun yang
Can we analyze Lily King? She's got that slight turn to the side with every breath, looks like she's peeking at the competition, but I think it's just a hitch? Or is that purposeful, a la Mel Stewart?
Very interesting way to swim for sure! Good suggestion!
I actually used to do that, one day it kinda just disappeared. Only really happened when I started to sprint, for some reason it just felt better.
Have you analyzed Bobby Finke's swimming?
Great suggestion!
joseph schooling swim analysis pls. he won at rio and i was wondering HOW given it’s his debut. there’s no video about his swim stroke on the internet so your analysis would be great
Great suggestion!
@@FaresKsebati do a series on swimmers who dominate in their debut and then sort of tail of at future olympics.
videos on anthony ervin would be cool too - dude’s 40 and he was at that US Swim Trials! H O W
Hey buddy, would it be possible for you to analyze Tatjana Schoenmmaker?
Great suggestion!
I vote to analyse her partner in Gators, Bobby Finke!
could you analyze Sun Yang's stroke?
Great suggestion!
Rebecca Adlington Please 😃
you should anywise Lydia Jacoby!
Can you guys do a video about like a swimmer’s diet?
Hi there! We have a couple videos about food!

or try Why Swimmers are Hungry all the Time: th-cam.com/video/AwIkfDVr45I/w-d-xo.html
How are her legs not shredded? she is strong af 10:29
It would be good to compare Katie to Becky Adlington, possibly the smoothest female swimmer?
Lydia Jacoby
Great suggestion!
I think he EVF is much beter on right hand. Do you think this is due to her breathing on right side?
1:00
I don't get this concept of 'paddle' / 'high-elbow'.. instead of using your back muscles, you only kind of lean on your forearm strength.
She is doing hybrid driven freestyle that’s why her head is up like that………
I am not seeing the same thing
The above water shots show she is mot even close to having the body half way out of the water
And being out of the water is not better and she knows it
In fact the announcer even goes in and on about her staying under the water for 10 meters.
As for the head going up and down that is intentional. She submerges the head on purpose
Later he talks about the gallop. Part of the gallop IS the head going down. And then the buoyancy brings it up
All I can think of is: if I'm a competitor, I'm one of the finest swimmers on the planet- no doubt. BUT this girl is making me look like a child! At 7:10 she's already kicked off and powering up ... and her competitors (worthy opponents!) aren't even past the flags going in! I'd be contemplating my life choices.
At 7:25 "... it looks like she's destroying the world record ..." (nah - she'd be destroying my self-esteem as a competitive swimmer!)
Ariane Titmus swims fast too! Maybe pay a bit more respect to Katie’s rivals. Arnie has always respected and acknowledged her rivals, especially Katie. This is not often reciprocated by both Katie and her supporters. Just my thoughts.
Ariarne Titmus is a beast! Hope to see a lot more of her over the next years! th-cam.com/users/shorts_TlnDrf7zWs?feature=share
I reckon it's the milk.
With her speed every athlete in the world wanna be Katie Ledecky….all female swimmers has to extremely harder to be Abel to keep up with her in the pool.
They Cain not always keep the pace.
One Cain improve over thyme to be Abel to keep condiment.
Short follow through.
Would be great to hear how Katy breathes…it appears that she only exhales thru her nose
Compare it to male swimmers.......
