THE MOST ATHLETIC POSITION

"We want swimmers in freestyle to be on their side as much as possible." Bob Bowman

Slice through the water on your side

Shape your vessel carefully

Appreciate the most athletic position, the most powerful position, with the most stored energy and the least resistance, in freestyle and backstroke, is on your side, hips vertical.

When you are level in the water, you swim with your arms and legs. When you are on your side, you engage your core.
