You can’t pull water efficiently if your hand entry is completely wrong! ✋🏊‍♂️

Most swimmers enter the water thumb-first, which instantly ruins their setup. If you want to build a powerful catch, focus on these three steps:

The Entry: Enter the water with your middle and ring finger first, directly in front of your shoulder.

The Extension: Reach straight forward on that line while keeping your head perfectly still, looking down at the bottom of the pool.

The Catch: Drive your fingertips straight toward the bottom to lock in your Early Vertical Forearm (EVF) without splashing.

At our MySwimPro retreats, we combine epic in-water sessions, dryland training, and technique analysis into the ultimate vacation.
