I stopped bringing my hands out of the water... and have dropped around 1.5 seconds.. but I haven't chagned much other than that.
BTW my split measured to 31.17 in that race. I wasn't happy seeing this video :(
I'm glad you aren't lifting your hands up as much anymore.Shoot them forward.You are starting your pull before you finish your kick and are not getting REALLY streamlined at the end of your recovery.This along with having your head up too much means you are swimming up hill.This is really hurting your distance per stroke.I can't see what you are doing underwater on the pullout,but you aren't getting very far off the turn.It is hard to tell,but I think you are starting your kick kicking out a little and finishing your kick without bringing your feet together.If you will finish your kick stronger you will go faster.The kick should practically feel straight back.Since your feet are outside your knees the path will naturally be curved,don't kick out.
