Eliminate these three common mistakes in freestyle to immediately improve your speed

Today we will be going over three of the most common mistakes swimmers make while trying to master the freestyle stroke.

Mistake Number One:

Not Looking at the Bottom of the Pool: All too often, swimmers lose track of their arm movements when they look away too far. Looking down at the bottom of the pool helps you keep a constant rhythm and reduces the risk of swimming off-course.

Mistake Number Two:

Not Focusing on Body Position: Another mistake swimmers make is not maintaining a proper body position. Keeping your head and body aligned in a straight line helps you cut through the water with less resistance and allows a faster and smoother stroke.

Mistake Number Three:

Not Bracing the Core: Many swimmers forget to brace their core when swimming freestyle. Bracing the core helps stabilize the body and allows for more efficient and powerful arm movements to increase your speed.
