Seeking your collective wisdom. I have some shoulder pain. It's not serious but want to keep it that way. Fist drill and *** stroke do not bother it.
If i just do fist for all freestyle, could i end up developing some bad habits or could this actually help correct my stroke?
It might be a good idea to get your stroke analyzed by a coach who specializes in stroke technique. You might even post a video of your stroke onto the forum here to get some feedback from others. While the fist drill may provide temporary relief, you are not determining the root cause of the problem. Fist drill is a drill, not the solution to your problem. Once you determine the cause of your shoulder pain, whether it is an issue with your recovery, your pull, etc., you can work on a variety of drills (not just one), that will assist with correcting your stroke. Good luck!
