With a swimmer that is using a rather straight arm pull, at least to the point where the hand is under the shoulder/the arm is vertical, what sorts of drills or focus points will help them move to/practice more of a high elbow/bent elbow style beyond just explaining/showing them the high elbow pull?

My guess is that this style incorporates more forward momentum and body rotation with the arm swing.
Janet Evans swam very similarly but with a long distance tempo.

I still watch this video in disbelief. It's the strangest looking recovery, but wow is it fast.
