I have been trying hard to correct the lack of symmetry in my backstroke. In trying to correct it I swim slowlier. Then I saw this:

At :41-:44 and 1:07-1:12 it's so obvious he was far from being symmetric. Would he have been better off if he corrected that?

I still wonder, though, that maybe those great loping swimmers could break even more records if they had got used to more symmetrical movement?
Great swimmers like Phelps and Leavuex seem to gain from the motion, because it's more fluid, up and down with head, like a longer undulation with-in the freestyle stroke. Whatever they are doing, it works.
