Imbalance

I have noticed that I seem to get more propulsion from my left side (I am left handed) when swimming. What are some ways to correct this? I usually do some of all 4 strokes but fly and free are my main concern.

  • I'm 65 and like orca use the gym too. Get a copy of Swimming Anatomy by Ian McLeod and review the sections especially on arms, legs and core. There are exercises to help strengthen your weaker side and significant discussions about muscle "balance," as I recall.
