Great book, a little outdated in tone, but great content.
Download and watch the video! It's probably more effective than the book. That said, he really breaks every aspect of the stroke down and makes swimming efficiently a lot easier. I went from a sloppy 1:45 swimmer to 1:35, being able to maintain a clean stroke for much longer. Also, I've taken about a year off swimming, and whenever I return to the pool, I am able to get back to that effortless form a lot easier than before.
It's very useful for learning drills to improve your swimming technique and to get inspired to swim for fitness to satisfy your own level, pace, and enjoyment.

Also, speaking of this book being kinda old, it was kinda funny reading a book talking about the best swimmer ever that was published pre-Michael Phelps. 😂 Like, who is this Popov guy? Who cares!
I know the author is really against learning bad form and then trying to fix it, but honestly, I think that's where I'm at. I'm going to do my best to learn from the technique in this book, but at the end of the day, my goal is to do triathlons, and I'd like to do them freestyle and not backstroke, so whatever gets me to my goal is going to be what I need to focus on for now.… (meer)
