About this title: Even though swimming is the closest thing to a perfect exercise you can name, too few people experience its full benefits. That's because most find themselves fighting to stay afloat, struggling for air, and feeling exhausted after just a lap or two, all of which makes this perfect exercise frustrating, laborious, and complicated. For the past fifteen years, veteran swim coach Terry Laughlin has been teaching adults how to swim better - and enjoy it more - by using his simple and original techniques. Laughlin turns traditional swimming beliefs inside out as he explains that it's technique - ...

"The book was pretty good, but his book on triathlon swimming (in my opinion) covers pretty much everything from this book in a more compact version. This book really only talks about the forward crawl, and makes very minor mentions of all the other forms, and it teaches for distance and endurance - so it essentially is a book on triathlon swimming"
"The Total Immersion method changed my entire approach to swimming and enabled me to finish the swim in my tri this summer. It is, however, a little difficult to follow without some additional outside instruction from someone who already knows the method."
"I loved this book. At first I didn't know if I'd be able to stay awake reading an entire book on swim technique but it had fabulous information on proper form, drills and was very conversational in tone. It confirms everything I'm already learning from my swim coach but this helped me reinforce it and learn the science behind it."
