SWIM TIP OF THE WEEK:
HEAD POSITION:
One of the most important parts of swimming is your head position. As we get tired, we all have a tendency to let our heads inch upwards. This causes your hips to sink. Sinking hips causes drag, and drag slows you down--all things we want to avoid as much as possible!
Hints to proper Head Position:
1) Look directly down at the line on the bottom of the pool. It is always straight, unlike the majority of our membership. If you can see the cross on the wall, your head position could be improved.
2) Make sure water is hitting the crown of your head. If water is hitting your forehead or the top of your goggles, your head is not in that neutral position depicted above.
These are applicable to all four strokes!
