4 CHANGES that unlock your true freestyle speed.

Quick warning before we start. These four changes work great for your sprint technique, but they'll harm you if you try to apply them to your long, smooth, long distance freestyle. This is sprint only. 1️⃣ Reduce the gliding. There should be no gliding. A high stroke rate is very important here, so keep the arms turning over. 2️⃣ Reduce the body rotation. We want to stay high and flat on the surface. But at the same time, your shoulders have to move a lot. You won't be leveraging much body rotation, so you need strong shoulders to drive the stroke. 3️⃣ Freeze your head. You should breathe less, but you should also keep your head as stable and frozen as possible. Now that you're not gliding, your head is the steering wheel of your freestyle. If it moves even a little, you won't swim in a straight line. And breathe as little as possible. 4️⃣ Forget the high elbow catch. This is the most important one. In a sprint you don't have time for a full high elbow catch. You can catch and pull almost with a straight arm. But you still have to make sure your elbow points up to the sky, so you don't drop your elbow when you catch the water. 👉 Get these four right and your sprint freestyle finally matches your real speed potential. 🎯 If you want to know whether your fast freestyle is working for you or making you slower, you can send your video for video stroke analysis.
