Good Drill To Correct Dropped Elbows-Freestyle

We will let you try this today. Dropped elbows (i.e., not maintaining a high-elbow catch) is the surest way to lose your "grip" on freestyle and butterfly pulls, and cause you to exert more effort, higher turnover (stroke rate), with less results: more strokes, higher stroke tempo, no gain in speed, decreased stroke efficiency, less DPS-Distance Per Stroke.

Watch this a few times, FEEL it, and make sure you have snorkels and fins today.
