Headline: UNCAPTIONED: How to master your swim technique
Caption: How to master your swim technique. Swimming is a great low-impact exercise that will help improve your strength, endurance and cardiovascular fitness. So how can you become a better swimmer? The fitness pros recommend three exercises to help you nail your technique. Finger trails: Perfecting your arm motion. The finger trail drill is often used to help swimmers learn to raise their elbows during freestyle swimming. ”This technique ensures a smooth and efficient hand re-entry while maintaining a high elbow recovery. Remember, staying streamlined during the arm recovery phase is vital for speed and optimal recovery. “ Alternate pull and kick: Building strength. When it comes to building strength, alternating pull and kick exercises will help you see results. ”For one length, swim Front Crawl using only your arms while keeping your legs still. This added resistance intensifies the workout for your upper body. Then, on the next length, kick your legs while holding your arms outstretched in front of you.” Shoulder taps: Enhancing shoulder roll. Finally, shoulder tap drills will help you improve your overall technique. ”Focus on refining the shoulder roll movement with shoulder taps. During Front Crawl, slow down your arm stroke when your hand passes your shoulder. Tap your shoulder before gliding your arm back into the water.” "This drill extends the reach of your pull and improves the timing of your strokes, enhancing overall technique and efficiency.” Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
