​If cadence helps your power on the bike (it does!), watch this video
​and see what cadence (or strokes per minute) can do for your swim.

Passing a buoy and converging to swim under the pier â–¡ at Challenge Melbourne. â–¡ It's rare to see video of the swim - but so helpful too. I'm in the purple cap, navigating my way forward in the middle. Coach @shaneo9876 taught me how to sight (I call it the Hippo â–¡ because you just lift your head until your eyes clear the water while still swimming).As you can see, sometimes I revert to the Breathing Hippo. â–¡ I'm still working on my sighting â–¡ but it has really improved. In fact, I think it's shaved minutes off my Olympic and 70.3 swims because I'm not swimming as far. â–¡â–¡â–¡ . . . . . #swimmer #swimrace #openwaterswim #sighting #challengemelbourne #openwater #justkeepswimming #focussed #trilife #triathlon #trigirl #triathlete #womenwhotri #sbr #tri_community #humansoftriathlon #swimbikerun #fit #googles #fitover40 #triathlontraining #triinspiration #triathlonaustralia #triathlon_in_the_world #tri365 #3athlonlife #triatleta
