For any/all strokes, how do you maintain timing and form while swimming much less than 100%? It has been mentioned (sorry I forgot who said it) that a lot of swimmers have only one speed. Well it's true for me. *** doesn't work unless I pull hard enough to get out of the water for breathing. I can coast/glide for a few seconds but that's it. Free, do you pull slowly or do you coast somewhere in the cycle?
I find I can swim free and BR slowly by the use of a snorkel.I especially use one to swim very slow BR as part of my warm up to both ease my knees into the kick and work on my arm and leg position without worrying about my head.
