Excellent break down video, Branton! Thanks, I will try to apply some of these details in my today's session! 👍 BTW the guy has an excellent body position, he just flies through the water 👍😲 Wish I could do it like this too 😞
Good analysis. What caught my eye is a learned 'overreach' in his setup. I'd suggest to him to focus less on the lenght in the setup as squeezing out the the last 5 cm just forces his arms out of wack. He wants to stretch out for the catch and overdoes that, resulting in the upwards paddle/hand position. If you have great shoulder mobility the extended reach is a good thing. His is right shoulder seems a bit tight though. :)
Awesame video. I am wondering is there any difference if you keep the shoulders up/down, front/back (reference to standing position) in different phases of stroke?
Excellent question. I am also wondering how much shoulder rotation plays a part in the efficiency of this person's stroke and if swimmers have a drill for this (to support the correct elbow position and arm angle in the catch)
Does anybody happen to know any videos where the shoulder position is discussed. I went to pool and it feels that if I move my shoulders back, (referring to standing position) I am able to get the forearm way more vertical. But I am absolutely not sure if this is necessary thing to do or not. Also looking at some videos it seems that people tend to take their shoulder way up (like towards the ear) in the beginning of the stroke (when forming catch). I am probably just confusing myself, thinking about smth. that is maybe not so important :)
This is basically me: similar pace, similar mistakes. Thanks a lot !!
My thoughts exactly!
Same!
Awesome Brenton. You have really helped me since I joined. Much appreciated!
That is eactly my case: 1:40-1:45/100 with a very similar stroke. So grateful for this analysis, Brenton!
Perfect, loved to see the improvements being drawn or shown by the other swimmer!! Thanks a lot

I am always grateful for all these insights and advice! 😀
Thanks for the expert guidance and breakdown.
Great analysis!!
John could be me, same pace, same problems in my stroke. Thanks for the video, very helpful.
This is so good. Thank you

Hi, this is really helpful re technique. Do you have any ‘breathing’ tips please, as this is effecting my freestyle progress. 😏

does a high elbow catch necessarily mean that the pull engages more lats and less pecs?
used to swim with straight arms like that and oh boy did it hurt in the triceps
What’s the app used for the video control and overlay drawings please.
Skillest
He will cruise on 5 day catch challenge
When people say 1.45 per hundred meters in a pool, how does this normally translate to open water?
I’ve found +10-15secs per 100m for open water personally
depends what kind of turns you do in the pool and how long the pool is.

Da fk Bro? That's 1:40?, that's more like 1:30-1:20
I assume that he wears down quite a lot by the end of the 1500m, so he drops to a 1:40-ish.
That is most likely his open water pace.
His head is too low. This is basic stuff. Smh.
You didn't watch the whole video.
SMH. 😂
