It forces you to rotate your entire body, side to side, with each stroke. Visualize this: when your body is neutral in the water, your shoulders are parallel to the surface of the water. With each stroke, your shoulders, hips, etc. should roll from side to side in the direction of the arm that's pulling at that time. I know it feels strange, but try the pull buoy again without 'fighting' it...let yourself rotate with each stroke. You'll find it's easier to get into position to breathe and you use less energy keeping your shoulders parallel to the surface. I will show you what I mean next time we're at the pool together.<BR/><BR/>BTW, Steph & I will be at Stacy tonight at 5:30pm!Stephanie Hardiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12411473287597728648noreply@blogger.com
