How to Maintain Your Swim Pace in a Triathlon Welcome to the first triathlon news video. Today we're going to cover a couple of things including what you can do to maintain the same pace in a triathlon, how you can best warm up for a triathlon so you don't take a few hundred meters to get into it and we're also going to look at what are some things you can do in training to improve your open water skills. If you want to maintain your pace throughout a triathlon, then the best to do that is to have a constant speed with your technique and your stroke. What I mean by that is I see a lot of swimmers overgliding in their stroke.  So they'll extend a little too far out the front, which means that with their stroke they're going slow  and then fast as they glide and then slow and then fast.

We show a few good examples of these in the Open Water Mastery Program and in the Mastering Freestyle Technique Program where rather than over gliding with your stroke if you keep it nice and balanced with your rotation, then you'll probably find that
