In freestyle, I tend to drop my elbow and enter the water with elbow and hand at almost the same time, which I know is not optimal. I understand that the current recommendation is a wider, lower, relaxed recovery -- with elbow not quite as high as previously taught. But the hand should still enter the water before the elbow.
Any recommendations on drills to improve my freestyle recovery while keeping my hand and forearm relaxed? Any online videos that might inspire me as I noodle around in our neighborhood pool while everyone's on vacation? (:
I'd like to avoid anything that could impinge my shoulder such as zipper drill and fingertip drag.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
