Just back from the west coast, spent 12 hours capturing video. So much fantastic stuff to choose from, but I really like this pic for today.

Maintaining a stable core is an important part of a good freestyle. This standard drill is a good one to help accomplish this.

Freestyle - Underwater Free

Being able to focus on one specific aspect of your stroke sometimes takes isolation. Swimming under water certainly gives you that.

Backstroke - Opposite Shoulder Single Arm

Good backstroke requires a certain amount of rotation, but this rotation also has benefits in reducing the resistance you create recovering your arms.

I often hear coaches say that backstroke is freestyle upside down. They're both long-axis strokes, seem to use the same leveraging actions, so they should be in the same family. So can you apply to backstroke the same basic principles that you use with freestyle?

Swimming Set of the Week - June 17, 2008

By Glenn Mills to Set of the Week | Jun 17, 2008 07:06AM | 1 comment 1 comment

I've been reminded recently that swimmers can become obsessed with stroke count -- usually a LOW stroke count. But we all have to remember that lower isn't always better. It's really all about finding YOUR stroke count.

Working on Rotation

By Barbara Hummel to Group (Mixed Levels) | Jun 12, 2008 07:00AM | 4 comments 4 comments

Two main sets to choose from. In one lane, we'll have 3 swimmers sharing 1 Tech Toc and 1 Hydro Hip, working on rotation in freestyle and backstroke. In the other lanes, the freestylers and triathletes will have a freestyle set with descending sendoffs, simulating race-day fatigue in a distance event.
