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?
Do you recommend the book at all?
Phelps gives good first-hand accounts of Sydney, Athens, Beijing, and other meets that nicely complement what you can find on youtube and such. There's limited description of workouts, sets, technique, and so on. As I said, it's light reading but I enjoyed it.
