This week's pic is of Olympian hero, Jason Lezak setting up for a massive pull.
Butterfly! Look for the levers in the body in this image.
Instinct is a tough thing to discover, and what you instinctively do with your hands can have a direct impact on your performance.
If you've ever seen any TV police drama, there will be a scene where the suspect is placed against the wall, hands high, and pressed forward so the police can search him. This position just happens to be a great example of the press on butterfly.
While taking some pictures of the swimmers this morning, I found the following comparison pretty interesting.
One of the biggest problems coaches and swimmers have to overcome with backstroke, is the overreach on the hand entry.
Swimming smooth and pretty sure looks good but, unfortunately, it's not always the fastest mode of transportation. How firmly you enter your hand in backstroke can determine how fast, or how efficient, you are.
One of the first requests we received on the iPhone app, was to discuss, or illustrate, how the hand should enter the water on freestyle.
Nearing the end of the year, this is just a reminder to keep reaching!
Moving fast through the water requires a couple things: a great catch and a high-speed turnover. Sometimes, the harder you try, the less return you get on the water. By using tools, this becomes easier to feel.
This week's pic comes from a video currently in production. I posted a clip of this video in our "fan page" on Facebook with the simple question, "Who is this swimmer?"
Gee, guess who tops the list for the Pic of the Week this week?
Just as playing with hand entry can help correct over-reaching in backstroke, playing with hand entry can help correct "crossing the centerline" in freestyle.
We are a group of swimmers who swim really fast, and like to help others learn how to reach their competitive potential in the area of professional swimming.
