In this training video on swimming, Roman Korol (Master of Sports of International Class in triathlon) talked about the two-beat crawl. Sports such as triathlon (swimming in a trial), long-distance swimming, open water swimming competitions require the most economical movements, since at such distances it is important to maintain the pulse at the level of the aerobic threshold (not to become acidic) and also to use the body's resources as much as possible. The two-beat crawl swimming technique helps to minimize the work of the legs, which means that you do not have to spend energy on large (compared to the muscles of the body) muscles. Also, the two-beat crawl is useful because the kicks are performed synchronously with the stroke (the end of the stroke), which helps to stretch the body and be as streamlined as possible. Also, this video discusses ERRORS in swimming with a two-beat crawl, such as: knee failure during leg work in swimming, spreading the legs to the sides (interfering with the streamlining of the body), as well as an incorrect rhythm in a two-beat crawl. On the CapitalTRI channel you will see useful lectures on triathlon, swimming, cycling and running training, videos of the club's training process and videos from the starts.
