Freestyle feels easier when you learn how to hold your body long, tall, and balanced in the water.
Palm facing backwards = better propulsion, higher hips, stronger finish.
Earlier catch, especially on the right arm (breathing side)
Catch down, not in
Head too deep = harder breathing
Stop trying to “roll” your body. Rotate by pivoting as you reach forward.
Should they?
Water over the knuckles = right depth. Hand drops below the shoulder = too deep.
Hand exits early instead of pushing past the upper thigh. That cuts off the last part of propulsion.
Effort alone doesnt equal speed.
FIX: Hand drifts too wide
