    Your videos are very helpful. They are better than most swimming instructors who can not correct the techniques and explain why so-and-so is happening. Thank you very much for these films.

    Thanks for these videos. I'm just learning to swim, so these are excellent starters for me. I plan to book in once I have some basics down pat. Probably take me a year.

    His legs sink because he "windmills" his stroke. If he were to stay longer in the water by keeping a leading arm out ahead of him and waiting to catch until the other arm enters the water he'd achieve horizontal balance. spear/skate , thigh tap, catch up drills etc would correct that.

    This video captures the flaws in my own swimming perfectly..! Thanks for the clear explanation. Can't wait to try your tips to resolve these mistakes in my stroke

    After I watched this video and went to the pool, I cut off 30 minutes off my 2000 yard swim. Really! From

    I was hoping to see the new improved stroke for comparison by the same swimmer

    Excellent Video! An improvement would be to put links at end of each video, for specific problems that are named in the video. I’ve watched maybe five or six and I am able to cross reference, but links that say which video to watch to fix, say, opposite arm position during breathing would be useful.

    Excellent analysis and explanation -- I see several possible explanations for my own stroke inefficiency here.

    It was interesting to hear how you break down the stroke, but I would love to hear more about just "how" you fix the hips. What drills are effective? How would one break down these drills and coach them?

    You mentioned that you'd correct the stroke by having them do drills. What drills would that be? I am a Red Cross WSI and some of my students are having these problems. If you could help, that would be awesome! Thanks for great video! I'll be looking forward to hearing from you!

    Also seems to be a more common issue with beefy or stocky swimmers that have more muscle mass.

    You do mention about using the core for fixing the low leg syndrome. One coach commented about 'sucking your navel into your spine' which I like because that takes all of the arch out of your back. Not sure how using the glutes plays into raising the legs. Mine are sore after heavy kicking practice, along with lower back, but this is because I put a lot of focus into the up part of the kick. Have to stretch a bit before I start my laps...

    I really enjoy watching your videos! Thanks! I'd be interested to know about target metrics for swimming, i.e. what stroke rate, distance per stroke, kicks per stroke, 50m time etc. I just often wonder what level I am swimming at and what I should train for.

    helpful, I think I'm a similar swimmer ---I tend to get tired quickly ---he seems to have a very inefficient, over-work stroke that uses up a lot of energy causing fatigue
