    Great explanation by using high elbows techniques we use Lat muscle instead of shoulder muscle

      It can make a huge difference when anchoring yourself for a powerful catch.

    But how do we glide? Don't we extend the hand at the front before pulling

    • @BetweenTheLaps

      Absolutely. As your one arm is extended and you are getting your kick in (6-beat) you are achieving your distance per stroke. Then as you grab the water with your next pull you accelerate your forward.
      The hand entry and position of your arm to shoulder to chin gives you a “knife” like position that allows you to cut through the water.
      The glide between strokes is minimal. You don’t want to just leave your arm out there. Even in longer races like the mile, you still need to have a consistent pace with your arms.

      Great question! Gliding is all about finding the right balance and timing in your movements. Extending your hand first can definitely help with that!
