The sessions are great, I can’t believe no one has thought of these before, so much better than my usual bit of paper, and the sessions are just what I need too!

Drills include…..
Front Scull                                Kick on front with arms outstretched. Make small movements with your wrists only- a good way to get a feel for the water

Kick on side                              Aim for  a body rotation  of 45 degrees with one arm outstetched in front and one by side

Fists                                         Ball your hand into a fist while swimming to encourage correct position of the forearm in the pull stage

3/4 catchup                             One hand is held out in front of the body until the other arm is about to enter the water before starting the pull. Encourages a longer glide and a good body rotation

Finger trail                              During the recovery phase, the tips of the fingers are dragged along the surface of the water making sure of a high elbow recovery

Single arms                              Only half the stroke, allowing concentration on coordinating howeach arm should be moved through the water

Zip ups                                      Trail thumb from thigh to armpit on recovery- encourages good high elbows

Armpits                                    Bring hand in to touch armpit during recovery
