Next month we start to tackle our propulsion and how we can make the most of every inch of our pull through
This month we add both breathing and head position together to ensure you are always maintaining a streamlined position. If you had a go at working on your head position (see Efficient Body Position in the June 2019 issue) then you may have found it tricky to get a proper breath in. If so, this is because you are most probably not rotating enough.
We are at our slowest when swimming as we take a breath because our body is changing position and causing more drag in the water. We therefore want to make sure this change of position has the least amount of impact on our stroke.
