    Never question mark your freestyle pull

    The freestyle or front crawl pull has evolved over the last few decades. We've moved from a question mark pull that caused us to push the water off to the side of the pool without genuinely allowing us to build power and speed in our stroke. Thankfully, we got wise to this and started to teach the concept of entering the water with a flat hand and guiding the pull through the giant paddle of our hand, forearm, and upper arms. In today's episode, I offer drills for those still struggling to adapt to this newer approach to the freestyle pull. I also discuss the benefits of pulling in this straighter arm approach to ease shoulder pain.   --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/between-the-laps/support

    Thinking about breathing isn't just for mediation.

    Breathing is a crucial part of swimming. It is imperative to swim great Freestyle. Many beginner and intermediate swimmers struggle to get their breathing right. They often lift their heads to breathe, swallowing tons of water. Some swimmers prefer to swim with their heads out of the water the entire time. These bad habits make you less efficient in the water and can make your overall breathing significantly harder, causing swimming to be far more stressful than it needs to be. Developing a good breathing technique is one of the hardest things for new swimmers to master but one that needs constant attention. Breathing correctly will help make you feel more relaxed in the water, making stroke adjustments easier. By having poor breathing, you can cause other issues with your strokes, like scissor kicking, poor body position, crossing-over, and lop-sided strokes, to name a few. We will cover five simple things to consider when working on your breathing in Freestyle. Each will help you be more efficient and maintain your energy level for extended periods. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/between-the-laps/support

    How to improve your rhythm in Butterfly

    Coaches often teach the double kick technique when learning how to do Butterfly. Though this technique is not wrong, it often results in swimmers doing four kicks rather than just 2. Today we offer ways to correct this through particular drills and other tips for more efficient Butterfly. You will learn how to use your hips to drive the stroke, resulting in a smoother stroke sequence with your arms. Find out when and where to breathe to optimize your oxygen intake.

    Rev your engine

    Building a solid engine in the water is crucial for faster and longer swimming, but what exactly is our engine? Well, it's your kick. You might be dead in the water without a strong kick since you rely solely on your arms and upper body. To build a strong kick, you must think about generating energy from your core and hips, then moving that energy down through your legs and feet. It would help if you remembered to keep your legs loose like you are cracking a whip. Like a whip where the power comes from the movement of your hand, then moves along the leather until it snaps at the end of the line, you are trying to accomplish the same approach with your kick.  There are several approaches to building a solid kick, and they begin with putting on a pair of fins. Adding fins allows you to automatically get that whipping sensation and build strength in your legs. This fin work can be done with or without a kickboard. I recommend without. It allows you to practice a more natural body position in the water. This can be done in a streamlined or just a body roll position.

    Eliminate these three common mistakes in freestyle to immediately improve your speed

    Today we will be going over three of the most common mistakes swimmers make while trying to master the freestyle stroke. Mistake Number One: Not Looking at the Bottom of the Pool: All too often, swimmers lose track of their arm movements when they look away too far. Looking down at the bottom of the pool helps you keep a constant rhythm and reduces the risk of swimming off-course. Mistake Number Two: Not Focusing on Body Position: Another mistake swimmers make is not maintaining a proper body position. Keeping your head and body aligned in a straight line helps you cut through the water with less resistance and allows a faster and smoother stroke. Mistake Number Three: Not Bracing the Core: Many swimmers forget to brace their core when swimming freestyle. Bracing the core helps stabilize the body and allows for more efficient and powerful arm movements to increase your speed. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/between-the-laps/support
