Swimming

Silicone caps are thicker and slightly larger butthey are the preferred material of swimmer. They keep their elasticity alot longer and have a smaller chance of breaking when putting it on.

Baquacil and Chlorine are not compatible and if added will turn the water green and throw off all of the other readings. The product that can be used to fix this is called Baquacil Chlorine Neutralizer. You also have to change the sand in your pump, or it will gum up

The acronym FINA stands for different things: - "F̩d̩ration Internationale de Natation", french for "International Swimming Federation". - Federation of Independent Nursing Agencies (in the UK). - Food Intolerance Network of Australia.

The ocean is very salty and salt dries out your mouth giving you the feeling that you are thirsty.

Actually, the reason is two fold:

(1) As with any exercise, you sweat while you swim, as a way to help cool your body, as exercise has increased the body temperature. It may seem amazing, but a typical competitive swimmer can easily lose several pounds of water weight during a typical day's 2 hour swim practice. This loss of water means you feel thirsty, in the same way that you would after an extended run. Look at most swim practices - swimmers will actually keep bottles of water at the end of the pool, and drink from them periodically.

(2) The human skin is not a waterproof barrier. The ocean, which contains a high concentration of salt, is out-of-balance with the water inside of the human body. As two adjacent volumes of a liquid with difference concentrations of a solute will try to balance themselves out, the low-salt water inside of the human body attempts to balance itself with the high-salt ocean water. Unfortunately, salt cannot be absorbed through the human skin, which means that the water inside the human body attempts to "balance" out the ocean water by diluting it (which, given the volume difference, is impossible). In effect, the salty ocean water "sucks" out water from the inside of the human body, as the two volumes attempt (futilely) to balance the salt concentration. This processes is slow, but not that slow. Thus, it is easy to become dehydrated while swimming in salt water, as the ocean literally sucks out the water from your body. A human being will die of dehydration while stuck swimming in the ocean far faster than they would by being in the middle of the hottest desert on earth.

Exacerbating (2), most people in the ocean manage to swallow a non-trivial amount (a pint or more) of ocean water if they spent any amount of time in anything other than completely calm water. The extremely high salinity of said water accelerates the dehydration process, as it sucks out water from the body into the digestive tract (to be eventually excreted in a couple of hours).

One lap is usually seen as there-and-back, so a lap is twice the length of the pool.

So a lap in a 50 m pool is 100 m. One mile is 1608 meters. 1/2 mile is 804 meters. 804 / 100 = 8

So 8 laps and a turn is 0.5 miles.

You need to define your question a bit. Are you looking for the longest swim? The fastest in the 50m, the 100m, or the 1 mile?

Also, fun fact, on Sunday, Oct. 22, 1967, The John Brown University swim team swam 100 miles straight. their time was 39 hours, 45 mintures, and 26 seconds.

To be able to swim fast, but preferable to be able to accelerate very fast and to start faster than your opponent. Next you need a lot of stamina and you need to be able to tread water using the eggbeater technique. This involves kicking your legs one after the other instead of kicking them simultaneously. This will make sure you don't need your arms to stay above water, so you can use them to throw the ball or block your opponents' throw.

There is nothing wrong or dangerous about swimming while you're hungry. But being hungry indicates that you haven't eaten in a while, so you may not have a lot of energy for your swim depending on the intensity/length you will be swimming at.

Generally, swimming is a year-round sport with no set season. However, their are a few differences between the winter season and summer season. If you notice, during the summer Olympics, swimming is held in a 50-meter pool whereas in the winter (in the United States, this is the college swimming season) swim meets are mostly held in a 25-yard pool.

The distance in one lap of swimming depends on which pool one is in. Competitive swimmers consider one lap to be one length. In the US, there are three types of pools used for competition. The first is called a 25 yard pool. It is 25 yards and is generally used in high school swimming and in club swimming during the winter season. Another type of pool is a 25 meter pool. It is generally used in the summer for club swimming. The final type of pool is called a 50 meter pool. It is the standard type used in club swimming during the summer. This type of pool is used at the Olympics.

32 new world records were set and there were also new Olympic records set with 11 just in the 47 athletic events and 20 more in the 34 swimming events. There are also many other records for World Junior, Asia, African, European, Country and individual records

33 laps * 0.025km = 0.825km

Yes, you can learn at any age you want to. Swimming is a great sport and will increase your confidence near and in water.

It depends. If you are trying to improve a certain stroke such as butterfly, it can help you get your technique down. Leading to a faster swim time. They can also strengthen muscles more than without them. One the flip side, all they do other then that is make you faster with them on but without you will most likely be the same speed. They can also simulate the feeling of going faster which for some people helps them in the pool.

Away (I think).

Swimming from one end to the other is considered to be one lap or length

To tell how many calories you would burn you would have to know how hard you are going to swim it. If you are just floating around and gliding, you wouldn't burn many calories. If you were swimming hard (continuously, flip turns included) you would be burning more.

Obviously, you ask them. List out all of the reason it would be so helpful especially since its summer. But even if they say no, first you want to get the idea in there head and keep on telling them you want it each day. Also, list out what you would be willing to give up or give in.

How many km is 100 laps in a 25 m pool

Above ground pools are the cheapest. Any in-ground pools are very costly. Many people love the above ground pools and the whole family can enjoy. If you would like further info go to: Google.com Then type in the question you asked on the board. Marcy

The fastest verified swim of the channel was by the Bulgarian Petar Stoychev on 24 August 2007. He crossed the channel in 6 hours 57 minutes 50 seconds.
