Latihan Renang PSSTLDM

15hb November 2008 - Sabtu, Latihan Renang untuk anggota PSSTLDM KD Sri Pinang di Kompleks Kolam Renang Universiti Sains Malaysia, Pulau Pinang. Latihan bermula jam 1500 dan berakhir jam 1700 iaitu 2 jam latihan.

Kehadiran agak ramai iaitu hampir 30 anggota, walaupun perajurit muda yang sepatutnya mengikuti latihan ini telah dipanggil untuk mengikuti latihan di kapal dua hari sudah di Sandakan.

Selebihnya dimeriahkan dengan anggota senior rate, 3 orang pegawai dan anggota LLP memenuhi kolam renang.

Ada beberapa orang anggota LLP yang masih belum boleh berenang dan mengambil ujian renang. Jadi untuk petang itu mereka dilatih oleh PTI Madon untuk membolehkan pergerakkan asas dalam teknik renangan jenis kuak dada (standard renang untuk navy-lah tu).

Berikut adalah petikan artikel teknik asas pelajaran renang jenis kuak dada dalam 'english'... sory-lah kawan-kawan tak dan nak convert to malay coz bz sikitlah lately ni... tapi takpa kalau tak paham boleh tanya... no problem.


Basic Breaststroke (Asas Kuak Dada)
Breaststroke is a traditional stroke popular with people who like to swim for fitness.

It is the slowest stroke, but that does not mean it cannot be swum powerfully and at speed.

Step One
The most important thing about breaststroke is to keep your body level at the surface.

Your shoulders need to be in line and your hips also need to be flat in the water.

Now move your feet and legs together like a frog - this is usually the most troublesome area of breaststroke.

It is the only stroke which uses these movements and can be difficult to get both legs to do the same thing at the same time.

Here are a few tips to help synchronise your legs:

  • Bend your knees and lift your feet up to your bottom
  • Turn your feet out so that you can push back with the bottom of your foot
  • Move your feet out and in again to meet each other
  • Straighten your legs with your knees touching
  • You can try this sitting on the side of the pool with your legs dangling in the water

Alternatively, you can do it in the water holding on to the rail with your legs stretched behind you.


Step Two
Take long stretches between each stroke with your arms.

A really good tip is to make sure you can always see your hands. This will help to get the arm action right.

Start by stretching your arms out in front of you, just under the surface of the water.

Then press both hands out and round to draw a full circle, making sure your hands stay in front of your shoulders.

Your hands should finish by stretching forwards again.

Your arms and legs should stay in the water all of the time, making no splash at all.

Step Three
Breathe in as you finish the circle, lifting your face out of the water.

Put your face back into the water as you stretch your arms forward to begin the circle again.

Step Four
The last step is to put the stroke together, so:

  • Pull with your arms and breathe in.
  • Kick your legs.
  • Stretch out with your body level in the water.
  • Start again.

Itulah langkah-langkah untuk melakukan renangan jenis kuak dada. Kepada anggota yang belum mahir berenang sila membuat latihan sendiri di kolam renang swasta mahupun di laut atau dimana sahaja ketika berkelah bersama famili atau bersantai bersama kawan-kawan.

Sebab kalau gagal ujian renang tak kemana kita... takkan 12 tahun servis masih di pangkat yang sama...
