Bilateral Breathing is Difficult!

After the resolve to learn bilateral breathing, well, I (again!) found how difficult it is to breath on my left. In my first post-therapy swim at the Filinvest pool today, I just drank pool water on some lengths.

In some attempts, my neck would seem to just crane out to breath. Breathing on the right is so much relaxed. But I'm not giving up so easily.

I believe I should start doing stretches with my neck too. Gotta research more on bilateral breathing. By the way, I didn't join the department bowling party at MOA.
