Freestyle - Single-Arm Breath

When working with great swimmers, it's always interesting to see what specific things they do that we can all learn from. Working with Fran Crippen showed us a great breathing drill mixed into an old standard.

Freestyle - Shoulder Breath

By Glenn Mills to Freestyle | Dec 22, 2009 09:30AM | 9 comments 9 comments

If it weren't for the breath... that darn need for air... just about anyone could learn to swim a beautiful freestyle. This drill, which asks you to connect the shoulder to the breath, can help you establish better rhythm and timing.

All Strokes - Blowing Bubble Rings

By Glenn Mills to All Strokes (IM) | Mar 03, 2009 08:02AM | 14 comments 14 comments

A couple weeks ago, I was playing around with my camera in the diving well, and blew out a couple bubble rings. I posted the short clip on Facebook only to be asked a few times... "How did you do that?" Since I'm on the road this week, I figured we could all use a little break, and I'd have some real masters demonstrate.

Here's a nice shot of a breaststroker. He swam very well this past weekend, so I wanted to give him a little plug. Yeah, yeah... go Gators.

Freestyle - 6-Kick Switch

By Glenn Mills to Freestyle | Jan 06, 2009 08:58AM | 13 comments 13 comments

Consistent, quick kicking, combined with a stable body roll, helps you move everything forward when you're swimming freestyle. This drill gives you enough time to work on both.
