Does all the equipment fit in Speedo's backpack? It is that I am between a 45-liter like the Tyr or the 35-liter Speedo. Thanks.

Great video. Loved this one a lot. Where did you pick up your roka gear? Online or in a store? Want to try their goggles.

@TriathlonTaren 8 жыл бұрын

I grabbed the Sim Shorts directly from Roka, and the goggles from Swimoutlet. They make great stuff!

Yes, I'm commenting on some of your videos I watched awhile back. I have now bought some of these things. Love my new speedo swim bag! I don't like the paddles, the ones to make sure my stroke is in the right position. I feel like they are either cutting off the circulation of my middle finger or I'm wrapping my index and pinkie fingers around the edges to keep them from moving around. Is there anything else like it that would stay in place a little better? Google is not being my friend when searching.

@TriathlonTaren 7 жыл бұрын

Those paddles can be a pain when you're getting used to them. Make the strap tight enough that they don't fall off your hand when held at your side, but not so tight that they're uncomfortable. If you get that nice middle ground then it's all up to you to get the right stroke that won't knock them off your hand. Keep at it, it'll come.

Thanks for the advice, I'll force myself to use them at least a few laps every time I'm in the pool. Your swim videos have definitely helped a lot! Thank you so much for putting them together. Getting some sense of comfort with swimming is helping me finally wrap my head around doing a tri.

Taren, have you used the finis tempo trainer a lot? Are you using all the paddles (Agility, freestyler and ISO) for drills? Thanks!

@TriathlonTaren 6 жыл бұрын

Everything you see in my videos comes out of my swim bag, so yes, I use the equipment if I'm doing a drill session.

no drag shorts dude ? Help to build up back and shoulder strength without compromising on your technique (by placing paddles on your hands)...and when you take them off for a quick 500m you feel so floaty light in the water...I love my mesh drag shorts.

@TriathlonTaren 8 жыл бұрын

We've done drag sets, mostly with chords and t-shirts, before. But this season we never pulled out the chords for any workouts. That said, it's still locked tightly in the group swim box at the pool, just not in my bag. But yeah, definitely a good addition!

I love drag shorts sets, even if its just a pair of baggy shorts and out the jammers...feel the burn baby

Just Me There's a former elite swimmer who swims in one of our groups, and he refuses to wear anything but board shorts because he wants workouts to always be harder and not easier with toys.

@justme8386 8 жыл бұрын

I agree with him..jammers are for competitions any thing else is training.

Do you recommend the Roka Sim shorts over the blue seventy core shorts?

@radeklatal810 7 жыл бұрын

You might find it obvious, but since I am just recreational swimmer, I can not find out what are the buoy and the black band for? How do you use it? You always show it, saying it is critical and I have no clue where do you put it or what you do with it... :D

@TriathlonTaren 7 жыл бұрын

Buoy between legs, black band around ankles. Helps you focus on your arm turnover and stroke

@radeklatal810 7 жыл бұрын

Thanks Taren, black band would probably be for me great way to drown :D. I am thinking of joining my first sprint triathlon this year and the swimming is my biggest fear, your videos help greatly.

I love your channel but I hate the way you say buoy. Lol, I didn't know there was a US vs. Non-US pronunciation of that word.

@TriathlonTaren 8 жыл бұрын

I'm gonna blow your mind here, I'm Canadian so it's probably even a third pronunciation. How would you say it phonetically?

Yes, interesting one. I only found out there was a US pronunciation while watching some swimming videos the other day. Your pronunciation is good with tri dudes from the UK Taren :)
