I think I'm missing something. As far as I know, there should be an overlap between the two arms (front-quadrant stroke). If you pause the video after every frame in the slow-mo sequence, for example, exactly @1:00 min, you'll notice there's not even a minimal overlap. The spearing hand starts to move back BEFORE the recovering arm enters the water. The moment the recovering arm hits the water, the spearing arm is already 90 degrees to the body.

So, overlap or no overlap?

@avibitter1 We haven't taught "front quadrant swimming" in 10 years. Since around 2000, we have instead taught "Patient Lead Hand." We stopped teaching FQS because we felt it was awkward and difficult to teach a "passive - wait for the other hand" timing. PLH is an active, rather than passive, emphasis. Actively cultivate a feel for the water and establish a firm grip, before adding pressure on the stroke. I think anyone will agree that my hands demonstrate patience in this video -- TERRY.

there is nothing better than swimming in a pool while a sunny and warm day. can't await this summer season.

? ? ?it sure seems like he is reaching to the bottom of the pool with each stroke , is that the best postion for your arm ???

[YKAEYA]

Beautiful entry, but to much idle time in the reach, hence a slower swim time. And Also why not balance the kick?

After many years trying to swim after a nonswimming rotator cuff injury ,Total Immersion techniques allowed me to progress back into recreational and competetive swimming without pain or injury many many thank to Terry, his course/material is the best out there period ...

@usiavideo Actually Terry I have just bought your book and it advocates this - "extraordinary swimming for everybody" first ed 2006, page 111 under RAISE YOUR BODY says and I quote "Keep one arm forward of and below your head at all times, by allowing the entering hand to take over the leading position before the stroking hand passes your nose". Also on Shinji's free style video he clearly has this overlap. So a bit confused about your statement.

@Palko216 I guess it's a "AquaSphere Seal" mask

[Palko216]

can anyone tell me what kind of mask that is

People, stop speculating/guessing - please watch the total immersion series available on Youtube to answer any questions or beliefs you have about Terry's style.... it will be well worth your while if you have any interest in swimming triathlon distances quickly and efficiently.
