Improve your freestyle swimming technique, efficiency and power with Masters Swimming World Record Holder, National Duathlon winner, and coach, Karlyn Pipes. Coach Pipes demonstrates five techniques for improving freestyle using the Vasa Ergometer and underwater video instruction. These techniques will lead to more efficient freestyle swimming and increased stroke power to achieve speed, sustained power, and freestyle endurance:
Technique 2. Fingertip Orientation.
Fingertips need to be straight forward for the most power in the freestyle stroke. Karlyn demonstrates how strength diminishes when the elbows are straightened or hands are pointed outward or inward. The most potentially dangerous position is one in which the hands get ahead of the elbow, and the internal rotation can be very damaging to the shoulder. Keep the fingers pointed straight forward to obtain the Early Vertical Forearm. Tim Crowley demonstrates each arm position while stationary and also on the Vasa Ergometer.

what do you mean 'hand in front'? xx this is obviously where im going wrong but i don't know what you mean!! xx
+thecupdidit I wasn't clear on this either and in fact did have lots of soreness in the rotators. When explaining things, directions in the 3 dimensional space are often vague (are you on your stomach, back, standing up, or laying down).. So which way is front? What she means is, when you are pulling, do not let the forearm get ahead of the upper arm. At 1:50 the arm position is correct. After that you should see Karyln twisting Tim's arm a total of four times into the incorrect position where the forearm and hand is moving past the elbow and upper arm. Exaggerate what she's doing and it will hurt. It could seriously hurt you if the the hand/forearm advance forward like that in the pool.
This is probably the best video I've seen for freestyle swimming. Thank you!
yikes, thats scary about the shoulder injury possibility. thank you for the early warning, and this pushin-box-down and finding out how wide my arms are from each other while i get the most powerful push - made really good sense to me. thank you for this lesson.
I'm a new swimmer trying to improve my efficiency. How does the high elbow technique work in conjunction with my body rotation as I propel myself forward through the water? I'm imagining it will be difficult to concentrate on the high elbow position while rotating from left to right and vice versa.
PJ, thanks for your comment. Sorry we did not reply sooner. This video by coach Karlyn Pipes will answer your question about rotation: th-cam.com/video/UEd9ELO9HVw/w-d-xo.html

Thank you for showing what one shouldn't be doing. However, please may you add more detail i.e. more time, and visuals to what is the correct finger position and how the arm should pull back.
The "Box" example really made it all come together for me !
i thought Part 1 was excellent and I am trying to put it into practice, but I do find the second half of this one very confusing (hand in front of elbow), so more detail and clearer examples please as they way the stroke is being broken down is excellent

thx ma'am,this has been so useful to me
and thx tim
thank you very much
Good luck!
after years merrily breast swimming only I took a buddy on a challenge and managed to crush a nerv on the right elbow articulation, I really hope instructors at the swimming pool im going to get proper lessons are as grounded and good as you
Really great advices but I would have asked Tim to test his fingertip power pushing on a scale to have a real visulization of it....
The Greatest explanations on the channel!
wow super thanks :)
I have always thouth of teachiging as talent.. and u are defo giftted.. well domenestrated and explained ... Thank you
Not going to be swimming @ 99 SERIOUSLY
Advice on 3:4 , is very helpful.
Thank you
2:17 Tim's expression when he finds out his arms don't turn round and round 😂
Great video explanation, and it would be even better if you showed on the meter the power and power loss of correct and incorrect hand positions.
ولا اقدر اسبح
لكن سأحاول حتى استطيع ان شاء الله
وشكرا لك كثيرا
Good advices, nicely told and crystal clear explanations. Congratulations and thanks!
thanks
i'll try this today in my swimming class
I would like to understand how the "high elbow catch" works together with the other arm, which is at that moment, if I am not wrong, high out of the water.
The low elbow technique results from a natural body rotation when the recovering arm grasps far out of the water, and so the pulling are goes deep into the water. If however I am trying to keep the pulling elbow high, right under the water line, my recovering arm needs to fold back my shoulder articulation, which in my anatomy is not a naturally possible movement. Any thoughts?
Markus, I suggest this video to help you with understanding rotation: th-cam.com/video/UEd9ELO9HVw/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the videos. More power!
What the name training of five part?
Another way of figuring out the effect of fingertip orientation on power is when you get out of the pool from the deep end.

Thanks a lot. Very helpful.
great teacher! thank you
thanks for sharing such helpful and essential information after watching your instructions I realized that I needed professional coaching as my swim practices may have been long but I was not getting the most out of my efforts (6 klm to 8 klm open sea) I am looking forward to seeing the results of professional coaching
Francis, a good coach will definitely help. Try this 5-part series as it will tie the entire stroke together for you, too. vasatrainer.com/blog/faster-freestyle-swimming-part-1/

Thanks for showing tips and technique for swimming freestyle. I only know how to swim backwards. I want to learn. Not splash around. It wastes too much energy. I will watch and watch then take notes. Then email my self all the smallest details. Then want to use these techniques at the gym pull. I will wear goggles and ear plugs. I quit smoking so hopefully I will not run out of air? Next: Want to learn: ( Freestyle swimming ), ( butterfly swimming ) and ( breast stroke swimming ). What got me interested in swimming is the , You Tube video about Diana Nyad , when at age 64 .She swam from Cuba to Florida. She initially failed four times. Then succeed the fifth time. Cold freezing water, sharks, box jelly fish , the east and west flow of water as she was swimming north. She wrote the book: ( FIND A WAY ). This is very impressive . I just want to learn how to swim from one part of the pool to the other.
بسم الله الرحمان الرحيم
Many thanks to you. Such a great Coach. Bless you. Am enjoying my swimming more and efficient from now
Tks again (I just got over a year long battle with shoulder impingement and rotator cuff problems - jajaja)
💪Highly valued tuition it makes a massive difference...🏊♂️ thank you so much, my boy 7 years old loves you 💙💜💛💚
Love the turquoise tee shirt! Great again, Karlyn!
Goof video but its hard to understand what the right thing to do is. Perhaps professionals not beginners can understand this
I understood this just fine and I'm at my 8th swimming lesson... it's all about optimizing your movements.
Bedankt u
Thumbs up ma'am
finally i can see the light, thank you

1
00:00:00,448 --> 00:00:03,981
Fingertip Orientation
손끝 방향(Fingertip Orientation)
2
00:00:04,190 --> 00:00:07,980
The 2nd focal point that I'd like to go over with you is called Fingertip Orientation.
제가 여러분과 함께 살펴볼 두 번째 주안점은 "손끝 방향(Fingertip Orientation)"입니다.
3
00:00:08,105 --> 00:00:11,999
So starting with that 1st hand high pull-up position,
이제 첫 번째 주안점인 손을 들어 올려 턱걸이 자세에서 시작하겠습니다,
4
00:00:12,030 --> 00:00:15,657
setting your hands lightly on top of your box for the Early Vertical Forearm
"팔뚝 빨리 세우기(Early Vertical Forearm)" 자세를 취하기 위해 두 손을 상자 위에 살짝 놓으면서
5
00:00:15,755 --> 00:00:17,696
notice where the fingertips are oriented.
손끝이 어디를 향하고 있는지 주목하십시요.
6
00:00:17,763 --> 00:00:19,981
They're oriented straight forward.
똑바로 앞을 향하고 있습니다.
7
00:00:20,097 --> 00:00:22,778
Now if I was to be swimming in the water or on the ergometer,
그럼 제가 물속에서 헤엄치거나 혹은 어가미터(ergometer)에서 운동한다면,
8
00:00:22,850 --> 00:00:24,063
my hand would be out here.
제 손은 이 자세에서 시작할 것이며,
9
00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:26,506
And then once again, it will be pointed straight down.
그러고 나서 다시 한번, 손끝은 똑바로 아래를 향합니다.
10
00:00:26,606 --> 00:00:29,355
If you're in the pool, that will be the bottom of the pool.
수영장에서라면, 수영장 바닥을 향하겠지요.
11
00:00:29,580 --> 00:00:33,441
So, what we're doing here is, looking our fingertip orientation that is straight forward.
그러면, 지금 저희가 하려는 것은, 앞으로 똑바로 향한 이 손끝의 방향을 살펴보겠습니다.
12
00:00:33,567 --> 00:00:38,198
And why would we do this is because this is where you have actually the most power, most access to your power.
손끝 방향을 이렇게 하는 이유는 실제로 이 자세에서 가장 강한 힘, 가장 큰 힘을 낼 수 있기 때문입니다.
13
00:00:38,254 --> 00:00:41,261
So to demonstrate this, I've invited Tim to come back.
그래서 이것을 시범하기 위해, 팀을 다시 오라고 했습니다.
14
00:00:41,377 --> 00:00:44,342
So, Tim, start with your hands up like you're gonna do a pull-up. Okay.
그럼, 팀, 턱걸이하는 자세로 두 손을 올리면서 시작하세요. Okay.
15
00:00:44,390 --> 00:00:46,576
Now set your hands lightly on top of your box.
이제 두 손을 상자 위에 살짝 놓으세요.
16
00:00:46,665 --> 00:00:48,222
And lower down. All right.
조금 더 내리세요. 좋아요.
17
00:00:48,304 --> 00:00:50,963
So, now what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna be testing Tim's strength.
그래서 이제 제가 하려는 것은, 저는 팀이 누르는 힘을 시험하려고 합니다.
18
00:00:51,151 --> 00:00:54,062
So, Tim, would you press down right here. All right.
그럼, 팀, 바로 여기를 눌러보세요. 좋아요.
19
00:00:54,087 --> 00:00:57,394
When Tim does this, he is pretty strong right there. All right.
팀이 누를 때, 바로 이 자세에서는 꽤 힘이 셉니다. 그렇죠.
20
00:00:57,440 --> 00:01:02,662
Now what we're looking at is his fingertips are pointed inward or slightly down just in that right spot.
이제 우리가 살펴볼 것은 손끝이 안쪽으로 혹은 딱 그 지점에서 약간 더 아래를 향하고 있을 때입니다.
21
00:01:02,804 --> 00:01:04,610
Now where Tim is not very strong is this...
이 자세에서 팀은 아주 강하지는 않습니다...
22
00:01:04,664 --> 00:01:06,349
So Tim go ahead and you straighten your arms.
팀 팔을 펴보세요.
23
00:01:06,534 --> 00:01:08,471
And press down! flex! There we go.
그리고 누르세요! 굽히면서! 네 그렇게.
24
00:01:08,601 --> 00:01:10,383
Alright. Lost a lot of power, huh?
좋아요. 힘이 많이 약해졌습니다, 그렇죠?
25
00:01:10,483 --> 00:01:14,414
Alright. So now we also could take those fingertips we can point them outward.
좋아요. 그럼 이제 이 손끝으로 또 해볼 수 있는 것은... 손끝을 바깥으로 향하게 해볼 수 있습니다.
26
00:01:14,594 --> 00:01:16,158
Press down. Mmmm.
누르세요. 음...
27
00:01:16,313 --> 00:01:17,589
Loss of power again.
마찬가지로 힘이 약해졌네요.
28
00:01:17,650 --> 00:01:20,649
All right. Now fingertips, let's point them inward.
좋아요. 이제 손끝을 안쪽으로 향하게 해보세요.
29
00:01:20,783 --> 00:01:22,867
Press down. There we go.
누르세요. 그렇지요.
30
00:01:23,004 --> 00:01:24,298
Not very much power there either.
이번에도 역시 힘이 그다지 세지 않네요.
31
00:01:24,347 --> 00:01:26,717
Let's go back to that number one spot right there.
이제 맨 처음 1번 자세로 돌아가 보겠습니다.
32
00:01:26,808 --> 00:01:29,387
Right here. This is where you're looking at your most power.
바로 여기. 이것이 가장 센 힘을 낼 수 있는 자세입니다.
33
00:01:29,436 --> 00:01:32,342
Notice also when I step away and he keeps his hands up there like that.
제가 뒤로 물러서고 손을 이런 식으로 들고 있으면, 이 자세가 바로
34
00:01:32,477 --> 00:01:35,652
that that's the Early Vertical Forearm that we talked about earlier.
우리가 앞서 얘기했던 "빨리 세운 팔뚝" (Early Vertical Forearm) 자세라는 것에도 또한 주목하십시요.
35
00:01:35,807 --> 00:01:38,284
So notice the fingers are pointed towards the front.
손가락이 앞 방향을 향해 있다는 것에 주목하세요.
36
00:01:38,466 --> 00:01:42,145
Not in, not out and not crossed over.
안쪽도 아니고, 바깥쪽도 아니고, 서로 겹쳐서도 안 됩니다.
37
00:01:42,256 --> 00:01:45,752
Now earlier we talked about the dropped arm or dropped elbow.
이전에 우리는 떨군 팔 즉 떨군 팔꿈치에 관해서 이야기했었습니다.
38
00:01:45,808 --> 00:01:49,943
So if Tim has his fingertips pointed forward he's now just dropped his elbow.
손끝을 전진하는 쪽으로 향하면 이것이 팔꿈치를 떨군 자세가 됩니다.
39
00:01:50,044 --> 00:01:51,844
So now we're going to take the hand back this way.
이제 손을 다시 이 자세(EVF)로 하겠습니다.
40
00:01:51,940 --> 00:01:56,835
Now one thing we have to watch out for is what happens if Tim lets his hand get in front of his elbow.
이제 우리가 조심해야 하는 것은 팔꿈치보다 손을 먼저 가게 할 때 일어나는 것입니다.
41
00:01:57,005 --> 00:02:00,662
This is really a problematic to the upper shoulder right here, the rotator cuff.
이 자세는 어깨 위쪽 바로 여기, 회전근개에 진짜로 문제를 일으킵니다.
42
00:02:00,773 --> 00:02:08,487
What happens here is if Tim starts his pull, he gets into this position and he lets his hands get in front, he's gonna do what's called internal rotation.
팀이 팔을 당기기 시작하면서 무슨 일이 벌어지냐 하면, 이 자세를 취한 다음에 (팔꿈치보다) 손이 먼저 가게 하면, 소위 "어깨 내회전"을 하게 됩니다.
43
00:02:08,671 --> 00:02:11,528
Now I'm not sure if any of you have Ken and Barbie doll when you're a kid.
혹시 여러분이 어렸을 때 켄과 바비 인형을 가진 적이 있는지 잘 모르겠습니다만.
44
00:02:11,583 --> 00:02:15,694
I know, I did, and I know that Ken and Barbie doll's arms they went around and around.
저는 해봤습니다, 그래서 켄과 바비 인형의 팔은 빙글빙글 돌아간다는 사실을 압니다.
45
00:02:15,925 --> 00:02:17,925
But unfortunately Tim's does not.
하지만 안타깝게도 팀의 팔은 그럴 수 없죠.
46
00:02:17,964 --> 00:02:25,105
So if Tim gets into this pull, lets his hands get in front, he's going to be internally rotating which could potentially tear up the rotator cuff.
그래서 만약 팀이 팔 젓기에 들어가서, (팔꿈치보다) 손이 먼저 가게 한다면, 어깨 내회전을 일으키게 되고, 잠재적으로 회전근개를 갈가리 찢어 놓게 됩니다.
47
00:02:25,283 --> 00:02:28,442
OK. So now what I'm going to have Tim to do is to demonstrate this on the Ergometer.
OK. 그러면 이제 팀이 어가미터(Ergometer) 위에 엎드려 시범하도록 하겠습니다.
48
00:02:28,599 --> 00:02:32,114
We'll just kind of see what you're going to be looking like when you're doing this.
여러분이 어가미터(Ergometer)를 사용할 때 어떻게 보이는지 확인하도록 하겠습니다.
49
00:02:32,234 --> 00:02:40,892
So basically the finger point orientation is a visual cue that's going to say look I'm in the right place to get the most power out of my stroke.
기본적으로 손가락이 향하는 방향은, 가장 큰 힘을 낼 수 있는 바로 그 자세를 취하고 있는지를 알려주는 시각적 신호가 됩니다.
50
00:02:41,004 --> 00:02:45,617
Point the fingers in excessively so, that's not going to be getting as much power.
손가락을 과도하게 안쪽으로 향하면, 힘을 그다지 낼 수 없습니다.
51
00:02:45,682 --> 00:02:49,930
Straight back out, way out wide, not good.
쭉 펴서 아주 넓게 하면, 역시 좋지 않고.
52
00:02:50,032 --> 00:02:52,666
And let's go right back to the good power. OK.
이제 힘을 잘 낼 수 있는 그 자세로 돌아가겠습니다. OK.
53
00:02:52,739 --> 00:02:56,954
Now also to demonstrate earlier we did the dropped elbow, so we'll dropped elbow position.
좀 전에 떨군 팔꿈치도 시범했었습니다, 그러니 떨군 팔꿈치 자세를 보여주세요.
54
00:02:57,015 --> 00:03:00,133
Now fingertips are pointed forward. Also not good.
지금 손끝은 전진하는 쪽을 향하고 있습니다. 역시 좋지 않고요.
55
00:03:00,183 --> 00:03:04,898
And then the last one which is the most potentially damaging, the internal rotation.
그리고 마지막으로 가장 치명적으로 나쁜, 어깨 내회전을 일으키는 자세입니다.
56
00:03:04,948 --> 00:03:07,594
And this is what you really want to watch out for.
이 자세는 여러분이 진짜로 경계해야만 하는 자세입니다.
57
00:03:07,693 --> 00:03:16,541
Because as a swimmer you want to be able to do this for a really long time, and if you tear up your rotator cuff early in your career you're not gonna be swimming when you're 99.
왜냐하면, 여러분이 진짜로 오랫동안 수영할 수 있기를 바랍니다, 하지만 수영을 시작한 지 얼마 안 되어 회전근개를 찢어 버린다면, 99살이 될 때까지 헤엄치지 못하게 됩니다.
58
00:03:16,787 --> 00:03:21,929
So ideal location is high elbow, fingers pointed at the bottom.
이상적인 자세는 팔꿈치는 들고, 손가락은 수영장 바닥을 향한 자세입니다.
59
00:03:22,075 --> 00:03:25,808
And as you bring this pull back, the armpit closes down.
그리고 뒤로 당기면서, 겨드랑이가 닫힙니다.
Hoy te encontre y me gustan tus videos, seria posible pornerle sibtitulos en español😊
Descarado... aprende inglés ... 😁
I love this fingertip drill. It helps people to achieve the early vertical forearm. It is basically for people who doesn't like to bend elbows to achieve that position naturally.
Thank you so much

super.....
Good!👏
Confused now. I watched the first video- high elbow early bend and have been practising internal rotation action for the arm movement. Now you say not to. Don't know how to try it now ☹️
Ah only rotate internally for first part until fingers point downwards..THEN you bring whole arm back in this position.

Excellent tutorial!!
Did she say she was going to put her fingers on top of her box?
Just jokes. Great video series and some very good analysis of swimming compared to the rest of TH-cam.
