Hi all. I've been working through the TI drills from the book. I've posted a couple of videos on Youtube:
TI Triple Overswitch Drill Practice - YouTube
TI Drillstroke Practice - YouTube
Particularly on the second video I'm really throwing my right arm. I don't notice it when I'm doing it though. Anyone care to have a look at my videos and tell me how I'm doing and what I need to work on? Thanks,

Cool thanks. I think I'll need to do a bit of Zipperswitch focusing on that arm, and then focus on carrying that to my stroke. I'll have another look at that timing issue too.
Originally I was a full time bilateral breathing swimmer, but in a push for faster aerobic speeds for long distance I had swapped to breathing every second stroke to the right. Probably have some carry on from that. I'm trying to get back to just doing bilateral even for the long distance stuff. I think I was getting a bit confused though due to focusing on the body roll and forgetting to breathe.
The whole body roll like that feels quite exaggerated to me, but when you look at it in the video it really doesn't look that extreme. Thanks,
David
