Freestyle Drills - Notes

1 - Catchup
2 - Fingertip Drag Drill
3. Long Dog = Super stretch

version of the common dog paddle, with face in the water and strong flutter kick. No overwater recovery, the armstrokes alternate, reaching as far as possible forward and pushing as much water backwards as possible. Each stroke should sweep in and out, as the opposite arm reaches forward

1 x 25yd Long Dog, rest 0:10 / 25yd
Arms pull under water, completing the propulsion phase of the Freestyle stroke. Hands return to the start position under the water. Hold your head in a Freestyle position.
