thanks coach! very helpful to hear it articulated again. i'm trying to implement the posterior tilt of the hips to connect legs to torso from your book! im struggling to keep the position (either im too stiff or i forget it and lose connection...)
@@shurrrig thank you for your comment. The best way to maintain this connection between the torso and the legs, is to use the push off the wall. So do several repeats where you push off the wall sending your head away from your feet putting your pelvis in your position, just like you hopefully practice standing on land, and then do a few strokes maintaining this. And then repeat go back to the wall, push off putting your pelvis in your position and your head away from your feet and a few strokes. After a few of these short repeats, you will feel it in your body. Just a reminder you’re not looking to feel the exact same sensation that you feel on land, because you cannot. You’re looking to feel as if you are able to turn from the shoulders down to the feet into one position.
Increasing over all speed for distance is a bit different than increasing speed for sprints. With sprints, it is mostly related to strength and faster tempo. With distance, I think it is more about full arm pull and tempo comes into it as well. I prefer sprinting myself. Don't care for the distances as much.
Thank you for the continuing videos, I love your approach. Reading your book now and trying to be patient!
Thank you, Coach! What you say makes a lot of sense. I am very much encouraged to perfect my swimming technique.

Lady, I'm sorry. This is RUclips, where you post VIDEOS.....this is not radio. You need visuals.
