5 out of 5 stars Well worthwhile purchase   September 2, 2008
I purchased this book as a gift for my boyfriend, who is currently training for a triathlon. He loves this book, and frequently tells me how Total Immersion has completely changed his swimming technique. He noticed improvements immediately. This book is highly recommended for anyone wanting to improve their swimming technique.

This book helped me prepare for my first triathlon experience and without it I would have fumbled about splashing away valuable energy like so many of the other participants did. This is a must read for anyone considering distance swimming.


5 out of 5 stars A better swim   November 16, 2007

I feel like after reading this book I have looked at my swim training in a whole new light. Gone are the days of grinding out lap after lap after lap in hope that I will magically improve my swim leg. Total Immersion has tuned me into developing and practicing good swim habits.

This book works best when purchasing the DVD. It helps to view the training exercises. The video is a little dated but not that bad too watch.

I think I could have went without this book. The whole book could have been condensed to just a few pages. No great images to help you learn the total immersion way. I definitely feel that the original Total Immersion book is infinitely better BUT the video is the most informative. I find myself watching that video over and over. A picture is worth a thousand words... Dont misunderstand me, Total Immersion Rocks! I have only been swimming for a year ( I am 45) and I can bang out a mile or more no problem in about 30 minutes.


4 out of 5 stars Motivating and useful   September 10, 2007

Total Immersion focuses on a swimming technique that will make you swim easier without struggle. It is an easy read and provides handles to swim better and get more comfortable in the water. The book alone is not enough to learn this technique. You will also need the DVD and perhaps the drill cards for the practices. The book is written in a "can do it" style and is motivating to read with useful information.
