Hi! i'm new here and this being my first post, i'm not sure on how to go about it; so i shall start from the beginning. From May last year, i've began my quest to lower my freestyle 50m timing and have since worked on trying to attain a more stream line position of my body. currently i can only barely reach 30secs and would really hope to lower it down to 23-24.. i really hope it is possible. Please look at the videos in my youtube channel to give me pointers. heres the link: Youtube Channel Plz do help me =) ty in advance

  • Disagree. In a 50 free your turnover should be such that a hip-driven freestyle is not possible- everything except your shoulders should be relatively flat (e.g Popov). If your hips are keeping up with your arms, your turnover is too slow, or you were formerly a bellydancer. Most 50 freestylers have a shoulder-driven freestyle, where the shoulders move independently of the hips. So extreme shoulder, collar, back, and torso flex is needed. Thanks gives me something to work on for this Saturday.
