Any old dogs out there trying new tricks? Any younger generation masters swimmers swimming this way? www.goswim.tv/.../freestyle---loper-drill.html "In watching the Olympics, we can't help but notice the impact that "lopers" are having in freestyle. While high-rate freestylers and straight-arm freestylers have been getting the most attention this year for the speeds they've achieved, lopers are certainly making a HUGE impact."

    I did a set of 400s (meters) yesterday; I naturally lope when I do distance sets. Ande pointed out that it takes alot of "core" stregnth to lope properly. He is right on with that. After the 400s I did a set of dolphin kicks on my back and my stomach felt very fatigued.
