Please answer... Thats the way I do it like the shape of a guitar I feel comfortable that way instead of.the straight arm or a really high elbow.. I also rotate the body. My question is how eficient is this drill I really feel is the best as I can swim 800 meters nonstop with no problem bit I want to train for a Sprint triathlon and I'm really worried about if I should learn another stroke that maybe is more eficient? I really wonder about this..
@RadioJoke - Hey... nice sarcasm. Obviously, with nearly 400 videos here on YouTube, there will be drills that focus on rotation, and drills that focus on isolating the catch. Obviously, if you're working on your rotation, and that's where you're having your troubles, this probably wouldn't be the drill. You and I are about the same age, so I guess I would have figured you'd understand, one drill won't complete the stroke. Hope you don't use just one drill for your swimmers. (Not sarcasm)
this is the best drill I have found.. really focuses what you need to do to minimise drag and maintain a more streamlined position. Thanks so much! Your videos are the best for a lot of us who have no access to coaches or others with expertise.
This question is adressed to any experienced swimmers. I'm an ex-short course middle distance swimmer looking to move to long distance open water swimming. I've been told that the total immersion is perect for this. However total immersion doesn't bother with e.v.f snce it says most people can'tdo it properly, but i became retively accomplished at. Basically my question is should i keep my old pool middle distance stroke and just build endurance or swith to a specialised open water one? Thanks!

No rotation on the long axis of the body.

@giveyouashot Read below. This drill has nothing to do with rotation.

Nice flat free with no roll - that's what we should all be going for! (for slow times anyway)
