Don't Try This At Home

Try this experiment to see the effects of buoy pressure for yourself. Push off from the wall on your stomach with both arms at your sides and begin kicking easily. Keep your head in line — the crown of your head should be in line with your spine, nose pointed toward the bottom of the pool. Lightly press your buoy toward the bottom, allowing your hips to rise to the surface. The more of an “uphill” swimmer you are the more pressure you will need on your buoy to bring your hips to the surface. When you need to take a breath, lift your head straight up in front to get a breath of air. Then put your head back down so that the crown is in line with your spine and press your buoy again. Note that when you lift your head, your hips and legs sink rapidly toward the bottom. And note that as soon as you get your head back in line with your spine and press your buoy, you can easily get re-balanced. The back quarter of your head, your shoulder blades and the cheeks of your butt will all be exposed to the air when you are in balance.

别在家里试这个

用这个试验试一试你的浮漂压力。蹬壁出发，身体平躺，两手在身体旁边，轻打腿。保持头部直线，鼻子朝下。轻轻地把你的浮漂压向水底，让你的髋部抬高到水面。你越是一个上坡选手，你就越需要把更多的压力放在浮漂上。当你需要呼吸的时候就直接抬头，然后再把头放回水里，继续压浮漂。注意当你抬头的时候，你的髋部和腿部就开始下沉，而当你把头放回水里时，又重新获得了平衡。你头部的四分之一，肩胛骨，屁股会露出水面，当你在水里平衡的时候。

Now do the same thing again but after you are aware of being well balanced, start playing with the amount of buoy pressure. Try putting too much pressure on your buoy, enough to submerge your head and shoulders and poke your butt way out of the water, then go back to a balanced position. Next try letting some pressure off the buoy and feel your hips and legs sink. You should feel as though you have complete control of the position of your hips and legs based on what you do with your head and buoy rather than by using your kick for that purpose. Finally, try swimming a length or two using your new-found balancing skills, feeling for your butt and hips to stay right at the water surface.

在你学会掌握平衡后，再来做同样的事，尝试不同的浮漂压力。试着放太多的压力在你的浮漂上，以致于可以沉入你的头部肩部，屁股会露出水面，再返回到平衡姿势。然后再试着减少浮漂的压力，让腿部下沉。你要感到能够完全控制髋部的位置，通过头部的位置和浮漂来调节，而不是通过打腿。最后，试着用你新掌握的平衡技巧来游上两圈，感受你的髋部在水面附近的感觉。

Ponder the Consequences

Aquatic balance is fundamental to efficient swimming. Without it, all other swimming activities are meaningless. Yet, for most swimmers, a sense of balance is not well developed. On land, there were dire consequences to help you stay focused long enough to turn land-balance into a no-brainer. Are there similar motivators to keep you focused long enough to get your water-balance dialed in? Ponder these consequences of poor water-balance: 1) With poor balance you are likely spending twice as much or more energy than necessary to get from here to there, and 2) Right now, today, enlightened swimmers around you are looking at your unbalanced, low hips position and snickering to themselves about the way you swim and 3) Some of those same swimmers are talking behind your back.

考虑一下后果

水中平衡是有效游泳的基础，没有它，所有的游泳活动都毫无意义。对绝大多数来说，平衡感并没有得到充分地发展。在陆地上，会有可怕的后果来提醒你时刻保持平衡，直到成为下意识。水中有同样的刺激因素吗？考虑下水里不平衡的后果：1）你需要花两倍的能量来游泳 2）别人会对你糟糕的姿势无情地嘲笑 3）在背后谈论你

How much more “dire” do you need?

Stay focused on the fundamentals and you will be a better swimmer!

你还需要更多可怕的后果吗？

持续关注这些基础的东西，然后你会变得更好。

适合初初级选手

让我们这些新手认识到平衡的重要性。

没有平衡所有的动作都是费力的。

这理念对我来说很新颖，下次游时感觉一下浮漂

很好的帖子，我现在认识到平衡的基础和重要作用了。

好文章啊。
