Crossing over?

My coach often comments that I'm crossing my right arm over while swimming free. She tells me to make sure my hands are entering at 10 and 2. I can never feel when I'm crossing, but its usually when I get tired. Does anyone have some good drills for breaking the crossover habit? Rachael

  • Like the kickboard idea because hands can be wider, unless the PvC is long enough, or wood dowels, too! Sometimes I say, do catch-up drill with hands in front of, or to the side of shoulders (you often have to exaggerate words, visuals, to get get even small changes). Also, must FINISH stroke with a flourish to accent the hip roll!
