Dropped Swimming after 6 months — honest about why
I trained Swimming for 6 months and then stopped. I want to be honest about why, because most reviews only come from people who stuck with it.
technique errors entrenching without coaching was a bigger issue for me than I anticipated. My gym also had a culture problem — a few people had developed an ego around their stroke efficiency over power knowledge that made sessions uncomfortable. The sport itself isn't the issue. The bilateral breathing is genuinely interesting and flip turns becoming automatic is real. I'm open to going back to a different gym. The sport deserves a better environment than I found.
