Open Water Technique Session

January 5 @ 15:00 - 16:00

£8

Your freestyle pull produces most of your propulsion while you’re swimming, but there are many things that can affect your technique and slow you down. The pull is your engine in freestyle. It’s responsible for most of the propulsion you create, and it’s what helps you move forward and create speed. Although all the components of freestyle are important and required, the pull is the most important when it comes to moving forward. It’s where most of the work is done. A great pull is simple. The goal is to create a large paddle with your whole arm and then use that paddle to push backward against the water and move yourself forward. There are two major components to the pull. The first is more of a set-up phase. After your arm enters the water, it needs to be repositioned so that it faces backward, ready to push against the water. Once it is, then the second half of your pull begins: a strong and fast motion that pushes water backward and moves you forward. Executing both components is critical for a great pull.
