The Backstroke Lane

Backstrokers unite. We know every detail of the ceilings where we train unless it's the sky which is ever changing. We SDK every day. It's breath taking. We go forwards in reverse. We get to flip over on turns. We gotta stay on our back. We swim back. We kick back.

    YES! I noticed this exact thing this summer when I would do a backstroke-heavy LCM practice. It was quite noticeable too; my coach commented on it. (I haven't noticed it in short-course, though; I guess fewer strokes between walls...) I found it odd that I was getting it on one shoulder but not the other. It has me wondering if I am doing something differently with the mechanics.
