swimming ability - 1k

in most parts of Europe it is time for the pool workouts. Summer is definitely gone.
What's about your swimming ability? How fast do freediver manage the 1000m without fin or fins? ;-)
  • faster than 13 minutes
  • faster than 16 minutes
  • faster than 20 minutes
  • slower than 25 minutes?

Re: swimming ability - 1k

normally do 750m in about 13.30 mins without pushing too hard. I do this as a warm up before starting some hypoxic training as i like to keep my swimming reasonably up

Re: swimming ability - 1k

I think that you need to add a new category: "Are you kidding, I'd never swim 1000m withing fins".

Re: swimming ability - 1k

For me, with mono, < 13 min, and without fins, > 25 min. My dives & dynamics with mono are all more than double than without fins.

Re: swimming ability - 1k

I am in the category "why swim 1k when you can have fun?"!

Normally i dont do warm ups over 500m and in fact i tend to warm up by duration not distance. That's why i know i can "fit" in 10 minutes about 9 to 10 pool lags (450-500m), so i guess it would be in the 20min mark.

Re: swimming ability - 1k

The most people in my freediving club, including me, can swim 1000 m faster than 13 minutes without fins
