Episode Notes

Many swimmers let their arms go through the motions when they swim freestyle, but that's not you. You want to have a strong, efficient pull. You want to make sure that you are optimizing every stroke so that you can reach a distance per stroke of 12 strokes per 25 yards or meters. In today's episode, I give you the one technique change you can make to make your pull stronger and more efficient. You'll go further with each stroke without expending more and more energy.
