peer agreement (net): +1glide phase is optimal as long as you remain streamlined and keep looking at the bottom of the pool Explanation: I think you need to keep "streamlined". I also think you should keep the idea of "looking at" too. It is not enough to be facing the bottom of the pool. If you are not facing the bottom of the pool, it is not breaststroke; it's either a sidestroke or you are no your back and looking at the ceiling! When your body is streamlined and you keep looking at the bottom of the pool, your body is much straighter and your head keeps down. Much more efficient. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ofDYZ8SICU If you look ahead, your body will be curved upwards and you'll be a lot less effiicent. You'll also look like a bit like a toad and probably have a flowered swim cap on! ;-) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2017-06-04 17:37:51 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Means you keep your ehad tucked down and the whole body is much straighter. Try it next time you swim. It's more comfortable and you can go quite fast with less effort! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 hrs (2017-06-04 17:38:54 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1va9qsH-ow |
