Now that Nationals are over, it's back to the drawing board- or, at least video feedback for stroke flaws. This video my husband shot for me today shows I am dropping my left elbow on entry, and it's waving around a bit as I reach forward.
Does anybody have suggestions on how to correct this stroke flaw? Your advice would be most appreciated! Thanks, Forumites!

Also Elaine, focus on pushing back on the water to move forward. You look like you are pushing downward before going backward. The downward push stalls you instead of propelling you forward. Good luck, I think you have an over-all nice and smooth stroke.
