Now this time I want you to do exactly the same thing on a little slower motion. You go from dead man, slow motion, arms over your head. And then I want you to in-plowed. Bring your arms in, arms are straight, palms are on the bottom. And you squeeze your arms against your ears. OK. Remember the water is cutting your ears right in half, and you are looking straight down at the bottom. OK. So half of your head is in the water, half of your head is out of the water. Ready……relax. OK, bring your arms up, in-plowed, very very good. Now, that’s wonderful. That’s wonderful. Great job. Good Job, Steven. OK, Vivian, Steven, that is the way to go.
这次,我要你们还是同样做得慢一点儿。你们从死尸漂浮开始,慢一点,把手臂抬高到头部。然后我要你们把手臂合拢。把手臂并起来,手臂是直的,手掌向下。两个手臂夹紧耳朵。OK,记住水刚好切到你耳朵的一半,同时你们是直视池底的。OK, 这样你的头部一半在水里,一半在水面。准备……放松。OK, 把手臂抬起来,合拢,非常非常好。做得非常的好。Vivian,Steven,就是这样做。
Now, what happened was, as you brought your arms up, and streamline over your head, your hips got closer to the surface, and your legs got closer to the surface. So now you don’t have to kick quite as hard in order to keep your legs and hips up. You can balance your legs and hips up.
现在看发生什么了?当你把手臂抬起来,在头前摆成流线姿势,你的臀部就更接近水平面了,你的腿也更接近水平面了。因此,你不用用力打腿来保持腿和臀部的高位,你就可以平衡腿和臀部。
Now this time the major tool in balancing your body in freestyle, to become a champion freestyler is to take your lungs and press them into the water. If I take an inner tube and push it down on one side, the other side comes up. While in your body, you take your lungs that is full of air, press them down, then your hips are going to come up towards the surface a little bit more.
要成为一个冠军泳者,在自由泳中平衡你身体的主要工具是你的肺部,把肺部在水中下压。如果我拿一个轮胎内胎,把一侧下压,另一侧就会抬起来。在你的身体内,你把充满空气的肺部下压,你的臀部就会抬起来更接近于水平面。
Now you don’t do that by taking your chest down like that. You just subtly, subtly press your lungs into the water and it raises your hips towards the surface a little bit more. So I want you to play with that.
你们不要把胸部象这样下压。你们应该只是隐约地把肺部往水里压,这样会稍微把你的臀部抬向水平面。我希望你们试试。
