"Too many swimmers focus on pushing their hand back at the end of the stroke, which just delays getting it back to the power position.
First practice I attended (last Saturday) the coach took time watching my me. He said my hands crossover (bad), and that may hand's aren't pushing back far enough (O K). I paid attention to the first correction (crossover) but kinda dismissed the "hand's aren't pushing back far enough" knowing it was obsolete - good thing.
I look at turnover as if it was a gear, and the gear your in is effective leverage. You can decrease your leaverage to increase spm and not go faster. Or you can increase the horsepower (stated above) while keeping the leverage and then go faster. But for me, I'm still learning the basics so I can't put any power to use yet - lol.
I saw a video of Klim and Popov. By the 25M mark on the rope klim had almost one stroke on Popov but Klim was slowly fading.
