Breathe Like A Champ Drill

How To Do It

Body Position:

  • Swim freestyle with only one arm for this drill
  • The arm you are using will move through a regular stroke movement
  • Your other arm and hand should be at your side, relaxed but making contact with the side of your body

The Movement:

  • Take a stroke with one arm, rotating your shoulders and your hips as you do so
  • Turn your head for the breath as the fingers of your pulling arm enter the water
  • Inhale quickly and then return your head back
  • Get your head back down early enough to watch your pulling hand get into the catch position
