Are you taking more than 40 strokes per lap? You are destroying your speed. 📉🏊‍♂️

Your goal should be to increase the amount of distance you travel with every single pull. But there is a very careful balance between swimming efficiently and actually slowing yourself down.

The Math: In a 50-meter pool, taking 25 strokes means you are traveling 2 meters per stroke. Taking 40+ strokes means you are spinning your wheels and wasting energy.

The Over-Gliding Trap: There is a point where trying to be too efficient causes you to glide and stretch too much, which completely kills your rotational momentum.
