One time I used to be training at a swim camp and spotted a swimmer pulling incorrectly on their Freestyle. I pulled them out of the water and defined what used to be occurring. Once I put them again within the water, the coaches of the membership staff shook their heads.
“What!?” I requested. Responding, they laughed and informed me that they had additionally informed the swimmer the similar factor again and again. The swimmer had mentioned that they had been operating to mend it, however on the finish of the day, the issue persevered.
That is precisely why the SLAF Video Vault is so essential.
Certain sufficient, the swimmer will get again within the water and continues to drag incorrectly. As an alternative of having dissatisfied or pissed off, I determined to make use of the equipment at my disposal…
I pulled the swimmer out of the water once more and pulled out my telephone. After looking for a swimmer doing a identical (wrong) pull development, I confirmed them the precise spot that wasn’t proper. Then, I confirmed them what they must be doing from any other video (it is helping to have movies of swimmers doing issues proper AND flawed).
In spite of everything, the swimmer will get again within the water, and BOOM, it’s corrected.
Ultimately I regarded again over on the swimmer’s membership coaches they usually have been gazing me in disbelief. SUCCESS!
