  1. Today is the @great_swim in London - who's taking part? Anyone en route to Docklands already? The weather couldn't be better...☀
  2. Julian Says: Avoid drastically reducing the number of strokes you take per length, this will only slow you down #BGSwimCoach
  3. Tell us what you'd dive into and why with #iwoulddiveinto for a chance to see @TomDaley1994 and the diving stars! britishg.as/aaaVPu
  4. The world's fastest swimming organism is the sailfish, which can swim up to 70mph! It's speed makes it a prized gamefish #factoftheday
  5. @ChelseaMamma If only :-(
  6. @Swimstar2000 It's certainly iconic! We like #iwoulddiveinto
  7. @ChelseaMamma Very nice!!! Why didn't we think of that... #iwoulddiveinto
  8. E.g. The @BGswimming team would love to dive into a pool of money like Scrooge McDuck, because you can never have too much! #iwoulddiveinto
  9. Win *VIP TICKETS* to the BG Diving Champs by telling us what you'd dive into and why! Details here:britishg.as/aaaVPs #iwoulddiveinto
  10. Julian Says: If one side feels awkward when breathing then do more sets to this side to improve it, it will get easier! #BGSwimCoach
  11. So you think it's sunny? How about this training pool used by the GB Disability Team in Majorca?! britishg.as/aaaVDa #Getmysuitcase
  12. We should draw inspiration from Chris Pitman, soon to be the oldest British woman to swim the Channel! portsmouth.co.uk/news/channel-s… #notatriptoTesco
  13. Julian Says: Experiment with mouth-only, nose-only, and mouth + nose breathing to see which feels most comfortable for you #BGSwimCoach
  14. @emmahollis1 @chenshawgb You're very welcome! Hope you're all having a good time!! #Majorca
  15. @BeckAdlington launches our #pools4schools initiative in Coventry today- getting the nation's kids in the water! #learn2swim
  16. Do not pull through in an S pattern as this has been proven to be ineffective. Pull back in a straight line through to the hips #BGSwimCoach
