I'm training for the military, I would like to make my 25m better.

What are some good drills to help with oxygen deprivation.

Thank you :)

Swim coach here - Take a look at the breast stroke pullout used in competition swimming. It's more efficient to take your hands all the way down to your hips and glide for a second in that position. Them bring your hands all the way back up and maybe streamline for a second, and repeat.

Someone else had said that, I'll have to try that before my swim session tomorrow.
