Bilateral breathing

I have been working on bilateral breathing for several months. Now I have found that my stroke has shortened and I am rotating much less. My hands tend to enter the water closer to my head than I would like. Anyone else have a similar experience?

  • I have gotten very used to bilateral breathing this year. I like the rythm of breathing bilateraly and my roll and stroke get in a real groove :groovy: (during distance, not sprints). But now, ever since the Asthma thing has been 'attacking' me :drown:, when I feel oxygen starved, I have been breathing on my 'pretty' side (as opposed to my 'ugly' side ;)) only. Lately. I have been noticing that my shoulder on my 'pretty' side aches when I breathe on that side too much. Now I have to decide between air and an achy shoulder :duel:.
