Got a camera in Guam last week to record some fish and stuff. Now that I'm back home I can put it to better use and try to improve my style. Here are several clips, two from yesterday and one from today.
My left hand crosses into my right side and my right hand goes way outside at mid-stroke. Not sure if this is a balance compensation but I havent been able to correct it yet

How slow are you?
- Currently, given a set of 10x100 off 2min, what would your times be?
- What's your current 50meter push time?
- What's your current 50meter kick sprint?
Even though I haven't really started conditioning sets or workouts yet because most of my time is still spent in the water learning proper form. For a set like that I would revert to sloppyness and get slower. But for 100M set on 2:00, between 1:30 - 1:40, even slower as I tire.
200M is even much slower, about 3:00 minutes and I don't have the courage to post my 500M time. I know I'm doing something wrong because I tire too quickly.
Haven't tested recently so they might be faster
50SCY (pushed) 29.XX
50SCM (pushed) 33.XX
Haven't timed a 50 kick but,
25M kick - 21.13
25Y kick - just under 18
Most important of all. When performing a 100m free style fast but controlled, what's the time and stroke count per 25?
I'll get back to you tomarrow on this one, I'll do one controlled and one at WOT, I'll also kick a 50M, but to tell you the truth I'm good for about 25M of fast and controlled.
Maybe I'm a little impatient and a have poor anerobic threashold foundation, but somethings dragging. There are times however for about 4-5 strokes that everything feels smooth, downhill, easy and fast and this is what I'm trying to find.
