How many use the early vertical forearm method? How many believe it is less prone to shoulder injuries? I tried it for the first time today and it wore my butt out! I did feel like I had more surface area to pull with and the force felt more horizontally directed toward my feet. I have a lot of work to do if I continue to adopt this stroke method.:bolt: www.youtube.com/watch

    Was able to get in another hour in the pool on Friday swimming ez. (Except kick sets which I'm emphasizing.) Continuing advil, tiger balm, hot & cold and very light weight training exercises. My shoulders are requiring some rehab after attempting to adopt what I would describe as an exaggerated EVF overnight. I equate it to suddenly rotatating a well worn in ball bearing at 90 deg. Based on my experience, most would benefit from gradual introduction of EarlierVF from LVF(?). It's great, but be carefull.:bump:
