Stussy told me to swim with a tennis ball under my chin to get used to not moving. anyone else tried this? Or hae other drills and a set for such? I was just gong to do some streamline, turns and pull outs work and throw in 4x 50 with the tennis ball. Slow at first and try to add speed. Then move into my regular BR work. Thoughts?

    So, If my head is above water and I'm looking forward how can my head be in the right position? cause your supposed to look forward, this drill doesn't give your perfect head position but it teaches you not to drop your head early. according to eddie resse the way it should be is if you atached a string to your thumbs and taped it to your forehead you should look foreward untill your arms are about 4 to 5 inches from being fully extendend at which point the string would become tight and pull your head down.
