Yes having both would be great. But having a priority of one over the other would make your swimming less frustrating and clearer.

Right now smoother. I want to give myself a chance to practice and internalize good technique first.

Smoother for me. Need to get the technique down and then the speed will come. Only swimming for fitness here.

Faster, I mean I would like to be able to swim faster when I move faster, to keep an efficient move when I try to go faster.

As a wanna be competitive swimmer who can swim smoothly for longer distances and trash at high speeds, definitely swim fast.

Jay would like to be faster swimmer with the best technique. 😊

assuming fast = speed and smooth = resistance, then: swim smoother to go further.

Smoother but the whole idea is to go faster for longer as a result

swimming smoother is more fun, and 90% of us swim as a hobby and not necessarily to compete

What’s the point of swimming smoother, if swimming less smooth is faster no matter the distance 😅

Skills N' Talents (swimming)
Would you rather swim smoother or swim faster?
By smoother, I mean not getting tired so quickly, swimming longer distances even if it is slow.
By faster, I mean moving at higher speeds through the water in a certain distance. Even if that distance is 10 km, you can swim it faster without necessarily being smoother.
Ideally, we could have both. But the advice and the exercises you should do in the water could look completely different. So, it is important for us at Skills n Talents to know which is the goal for the majority in order for us to create future content.
