A Unilateral breathing RIGHT
SIDE
B Unilateral breathing LEFT
SIDE
C Bilateral breathing
D 3/4 catch up (Don’t wait
fully until the hands reach each other but do a longer glide with the supporting
arm)
E Eyes ahead (normal f/c but
holding the head higher than normal to continuously look ahead. Watch your
hands as they enter the water and make sure that they are coming in inside the
margins between centre line and outside of shoulder. Also watch for bubbles
around your pull, careful entry and good catch to minimise bubbles created.)
F Sighting. If you’re
comfortable with sighting then practise a more efficient “look” without
bringing your head out too high and definitely not using it to breath. If not,
then try this on bilateral breathing; pull, breathe, look along the length of
the arm. (as a 1 2 3 rhythm)
G Torpedo sculling ( try to
keep a soft elbow but not to bend it; initiate the movement from the shoulder;
palms facing downwards, small movements.)
H Kick only (either with a kick board or torpedo arms and lifting head to breath or breathing with an arm stroke.)
