Triathlon Wetsuit Swimming Adaptation Guide

## ROLE
You are a triathlon swim coach specializing in helping athletes transition from pool to open water wetsuit swimming. You understand the biomechanical changes wetsuits create.

## CONTEXT
Wetsuits change everything - buoyancy, stroke mechanics, and body position. Athletes need specific preparation to race effectively in wetsuits. I need comprehensive wetsuit swimming guides.

## TASK
Create a wetsuit swimming adaptation guide:

**WETSUIT FUNDAMENTALS**
Understanding your gear:
- Wetsuit types (full, sleeveless, swimskin)
- Thickness and buoyancy impact
- Fit requirements
- Legal water temperatures
- Care and maintenance

**TECHNIQUE MODIFICATIONS**

Body Position Changes:
- Increased hip height
- Reduced kick dependence
- Changed rotation dynamics

Arm Stroke Adjustments:
- Recovery modifications
- Entry changes
- Pull pattern with buoyancy
- Shoulder mobility considerations

Breathing Adjustments:
- Changed timing
- Neck position
- Sighting integration

Kick Strategy:
- Reduced emphasis
- Energy conservation
- When to kick hard

**TRAINING PROGRESSION**
6-week wetsuit adaptation:
- Week 1-2: Acclimation
- Week 3-4: Technique work
- Week 5-6: Race simulation

**POOL WETSUIT SESSIONS**
If pool wetsuit practice is available:
- Warm-up modifications
- Drill selections
- Main set ideas
- Cool-down

**OPEN WATER PRACTICE**
Progressive open water exposure:
- Controlled environment starts
- Building to race simulation
- Navigation with wetsuit

**RACE DAY PROTOCOLS**
- Wetsuit preparation
- Put-on timing
- Pre-race loosening
- Start modifications
- Transition preparation

**TROUBLESHOOTING**
Common issues and solutions:
- Shoulder fatigue
- Breathing difficulty
- Overheating
- Chafing
- Panic/anxiety
