Today, for whatever reason, I made a focused effort to sight the end of the pool, albeit momentarily, during my breath. I think it helped me keep correct orientation and pitch thus helping my body dolphin. I think before I was just looking cross eyed into the water ahead and not really picking the end of the pool as the focus. It was cool seeing the wall "rapidly" approaching.
So my question is, should you not look at any discernable thing and zone out looking for the tee, or should you take a conscious peek at the wall on every breath to help keep body orientation?
What say you?
OK, I watched all the olympic fly races again and they all noticeably lift their heads to breathe and look virtually straight ahead momentarily before bringing it back down in alignment with their spine.
Whether or not they focus on the wall is up for debate, but they certainly could if they wanted.
