Stroke count

I asked this question under workouts and got no response. hopefully better luck here. When counting strokes where do you count from? Are you counting 1 arm? or is each arm rotation counted? If I count each arm rotation it takes my 16 strokes to cover 25 yds. What should a typical stroke count be?

    Because if you extend your arm out as far as possible you are effectively disconnecting it from your core. I don't think you should ever lock your elbow while swimming, instead your hand should enter and immediately drive down to the catch position. I realize not everyone is going to agree with this, but I believe it to be true. not sure www.youtube.com/watch
