Hello,
I am new to this forum so sorry if this has been brought up before. I have fairly bad gas and i tend to fart a lot, especially while swimming. I have done some research and read it is best to exhale while underwater to swim faster/relax your body. Does farting also have the same benefits? Or is it better not to fart so your body retains more air, thus allowing you to “float” easier. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Do whatever is comfortable. But if you’re in my masters class at least warn me ahead of time. And no floaters!!!
It’s always a good ice breaker too. If you’re force into lane sharing with someone make the notion like you got the chills. When they ask, “Are you cold.” Just say, “No I farted” and then swim off. When you return there will be no one there.
Hello Ti guy and All,
This is ST …
The subject has already been researched and quantified by type of gas, quantity of gas, male or female swimmer, body fat, density and temperature of the water you are swimming in , environmental effects, degradation of competition from poisonous fumes, type and color of swimsuit with special emphasis on fabric type, body type, time of day, weather, effect on fish and frogs, and other important parameters …

I swim with ear plugs and always forget how quiet our pool is…
Excess air will not aid you your floating only create pressure and pain. Let it out what’s the problem.
Fart while pushing off the wall underwater so the lifeguards don’t hear it. That’s what my friend does. Wink wink.
Eganski? Where are you?
Well other than then “Never trust a Fart”, I can’t offer a lot. The largest issue is the potential that it isn’t really a Fart and worse yet, may be somewhat liquid. So, I’d suggest you let gas escape slowly so you can keep check on whether it start to turn liquid. I don’t think anyone would like a brown trail in the water.
I have found that by wearing my speedo endurance suit the fart can’t escape the bulletproof like fabric so the floating effect is still in effect.

I wouldn’t worry about training. You will have real issues if your next race is wetsuit legal. I’m thinking of the girl from Charlie & the Chocolate Factory. good luck.
i see what youre trying to do here
if you fart underwater, just be sure there’s none of those slow women around you

Take a hike, Troll

This. Same happens to mine. Haha
I know what you are doing.

I only fart when I’m scuba diving. That way the bubbles are disguised by those from my regulator.
Yeah but a trained eye can differentiate them by the slower speed at which they rise, especially the sulphur laden ones.
Seriously, for some reason farts seem to be more potent when they bubble up while at the wall. Avoid this by farting while swimming. A good kick will disguise the bubbles.
