OK...it appears I may be somewhat dated in my thinking regarding the optimal head position for freestyle. I have always used the 'where the water meets the hairline is the correct head position'...of course that's assuming you have a hairline. I have noticed this Phelps kid (man, he's quick) lowers his head in the freestyle.
Can someone shed some light on the correct psoition or is it one of those 'it depends' answer.
WOW!! Thanks for the quick lessons...I have been converted!!

Maglischo has 4 books out. Swimming Faster and Swimming Even Faster are great. His newest one Swimming Fastest is the largest in size. It is the only one that does not hold up to complete scientific scrutiny.
I read a lot too. How does it not hold up to scientific scrutiny? Perhaps you could be specific.
