Hi everyone I'm trying to reduce my front crawl armstroke rate. Currently I can get through 25M in 25 strokes (at best), my technique feels ok (high elbow recovery and a decent push phase), yet I notice other folks in the pool travelling the same distance in 15-20 strokes looking really relaxed. I'm working on improving my body roll, which I guess is the key, but any help or tips (maybe from someone who's had the same problem and has made a significant improvement) would be greatly appreciated. Cheers Andy
