Total Immersion Perpetual Motion Freestyle 2009 XVID version.XVID avi (play with VLC), 25 fps, 768 bitrate, 720 x 576 px, 48.43 minutes.Audio 5/10, Video 5/10. Some barely audible pops in audio but not annoying.Perhaps the best explanation of the TI concept ever, straight from Terry Laughlin.Expounds on his “Three Percent Rule” or the “The Three Percent Solution” based on DARPA research (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, United States Department of Defense) about energy efficiency in the water.Most humans use 3% of the energy they expend swimming to move forward, 97% on “other stuff”.Dolphins are 80% energy efficient in moving through the water.Michael Phelps is 9% energy efficient.Good stuff that can be applied to a lot more than swimming.Do less, accomplish more. Laughlin has been perfecting this every day for the past 20 years so he makes it look a lot easier than it is.US Masters NATIONAL long distance record holder for multiple distances tells you how he went from a total loser to the best ever for long distance and open water swimming.If you don’t get the point after watching this, you probably never will.The most valuable tips are some of his shortest statements and easy to miss.
