Just wondering. How many of y'all are using the front quadrant swimming technique? I have been using the book and DVD-Total Immersion and trying to adjust my stroke. When I do the stroke correctly it is so much easier-effortless. I feel like I am able to reduce the drag I create when swimming the way I was taught to swim years ago. I'm interested in anyone's experience with FQS. Thanks:)

Great point. The TI method seems to imply that Thorpe's technique can be reduced to a set of drills that will work for everyone. Ironically, the coaches of these elite swimmers see things very differently. Bill Rose, Lars Jensen's coach, was interviewed for Swimming Technique. He, like others, feels very strongly that technique should be individualized, rather than completely overhauling each swimmer's stroke.
