Body Rotation is one of the key ingredients to a fast freestyle swim technique.  At The Race Club swim camps (http://theraceclub.com/swim-camps/), we believe a swimmer should rotate the shoulders maximally during most races.  One of the most important drills we have found in teaching swimmers how to rotate their body for freestyle swim technique is the body rotation swim drill.  In this swim drill we use fins and a snorkel to allow the swimmer to focus on the act of rotating. The swimmer rotates their body aggressively so that the shoulder is vertical after 6 kicks.  Turn the body slightly or slowly and you won’t feel much increase in power, turn the body quickly and aggressively and the increase in speed will be dramatic. You can also try this drill with 12 kicks or for a real challenge try every 3.

We use many dryland exercises at the Race Club to improve our body rotation in the pool .  Bicycle Sit Ups are a great exercise we regularly incorporate into our dryland as well as Roundhouse Boxing.  By using the core for these exercises one can feel a stronger connection in the pool and lead to a faster freestyle swim technique.  Learn the secret to improving your rotation by learning this drill and these dryland exercises in this #swimisodes
