Here is an old one of me swimming. It was taken just after a knee replacement and I was not able to push off the the wall. That pool is 75 feet wide at that point and it took 16 seconds to cross the pool. www.youtube.com/watch
I have posted this before. I am open to critique. I do not like the broken wrist recovery with the left hand.
Chuckie and I will be in Mexico in 3 weeks. Chuckie and I love Mexico.

I do not rotate the hips as much as some. I am a six beat kicker and when I swam marathons a very light six beat kicker.
Head position is my preference I like it there, the slightly higher head actually lifts the legs contrary to others belief. I also like to finish very low on the thigh with the hand. This low hand finish also lifts the legs.
I am a great believer in the fulcrum theory. The arms and head are above the fulcrum (the lungs) and the hips and legs are below. Even when the hands are at your thigh the fulcrum theory says they are above the shoulders.
