Balance Drill
How To Do It
Body Position:
- • Laying face down in the water
- • Arms should be extended out in front of you in the "Number 11 Position"
- • Legs should be extended out behind you
- • Head and neck into a neutral position
- • Make your body as long as you can
The Movement:
- • Kick across the pool maintaining your body position
- • When you need to breathe raise your head (so only your mouth comes out the water) breath in through your mouth and place your head back down in the water.
- • Allow your hips to sink on the breath, then reestablish your balance position as quickly as possible.
Things To Focus On:
- • Float as high as you can in the water
- • Keep your head, hips and heels all in one straight line with each other.
- • Keep the kick light and just strong enough to keep you moving forward
- • Don't rush through the length
