For a sport like swimming, improving my technique is critical to getting faster.  The problem is that, it is very difficult to visualize your own technique, while doing a workout.  To fix this issue, I have bought a GoPro Hero 9 camera.

Of course, I will be able to use the camera for a lot more things than filming my swim technique.  I can film myself running and biking too.  Technique is less critical in these sports, but there are still subtle things that I might see and be able to change.

I am also excited about the possibilities for other video usage.  I could add videos to my website.  Film workouts to post on Social Media.  Maybe even produce some content, to help promote my coaching services. I can also film others and maybe offer services like swim analysis or run form analysis.

Not having had anything like a GoPro Hero 9 before, I am sure that I have a steep learning curve to go up.  I guess the internet will help, but there is probably nothing like diving in and learning as I go along.  Stay tuned for feedback, as this new part of my journey begins.
