Hello there. I once (for a while) had this problem when I swam in college and it kinda began up again lately at masters practice. This happens especially on free and back... I feel as though someone is pushing me back while I swim... I can't get my arms to get going faster as well. With having my shoulder probs, I've been concentrating on technique more and I don't know why I just can't get my arms moving... a little bit before college, my pace was always like a sprint... it's a very strange feeling, and I don't know what to do about it. I've been lifting light weights and running on an eliptical machine... and that's about it... any opinions about what I should do? Thanks a bunch... S.

    my streamline has been fine all along, on free and back, i'm trying to stress the entire pull and work on excellent recovery (free)... trying to get a better feel for the water. when i try to sprint at practice, i just can't get movin... maybe i'm turning into a distance swimmer!!!! aaahhhhh! maybe my body is protecting itself from further injury or, i'm improving and it is just feeling like i'm going nowhere. thanks for your advice, ya'll
