Looking for some short axis drills, for technique primarily and strength secondly
Anybody got any?
BTW, been back in the pool for a couple months, taking it REALLY slow after being laid out for over a year with a back injury. So very grateful to be back in the water :banana:

A few *** drills that I do:
- kicking on back, with arms overhead, making sure to keep knees in water (*** kick is about hamstrings, not hip flexors)
- arm sculling to get a feel for the water, with a buoy to keep legs still
- drilling 2x kick, 1x full stroke, focusing on a long glide
- pulling breaststroke, with full arm stroke and dolphin kick (using fins)
