the link no longer works;  guess the project failed, maybe

Go to activeSG website to check. I was looking at it barely 2min ago. There’s a page for gym, another page for pool. Hope the accuracy is better now. 😝

Protect the hair! But also to keep the hair out of my face.

 

To swim faster I like to wear short fins from decathlon.

 

At my level of swimming (fitness swimming), different kinds of swim trunks don't make any difference also. Though wearing a swim shirt does increase drag by a lot!

Thx for the update. 
From the photos found in the provided link, looks like they do not do much at the pool area. Nevertheless, still looking forward to the re-opening.

Depends who you swim with, probably. 

 

I used to swim with a friend who would like to chat between laps, so definitely got slowed down. 

 

If it's a serious swimmers, probably both want to do continuous laps for some time and then it probably can get a bit competitive!

would you agree that unless you race each other, one would only slow down the other when going to swim together?

Easy. Fixated on a swim hard guy in pool and used him as a guide

Bad advice. Two people may be of different level. Choosing wrong target leaves you tired and demoralised.

used to do these in my younger days when I started out, just target any random guy ahead of myself and start ‘chasing’ 😝 soon as regular, I know who I can ‘chase’ and who I should avoid and who seems to know I am ‘chasing’ and on occasion would ‘let me’ win 😜 🤭 . The fact that I know I will never be along side them keeps my mind focus on just the chase and contrary to feeling demoralised it motivate to try and keep up as closely as I could.

Focus is on keeping as close to him. Just like running a marathon pacer
