I would appreciate suggestions for swimming freestyle with one arm . I cannot use my left arm due to a not correctable rotator cuff problem. Gil

  • Once you get the arm going with a good kick rhythm, it feels natural. Just make sure you breath to a side that does not aggrivate the good arm. Today I did bilateral breathing with one-arm drill for each arm and it really did a number on my bad shoulder when I breathed to the opposite side of stroking arm. Won't try that with one -arm drill again. Did your shoulder ever dislocate when you were younger? Curious
