Shoulder pain after swimming? Your technique could be the reason.
In this episode, we look at three common freestyle mistakes that can place unnecessary stress on the shoulder: an overly high elbow, crossing over the centre line, and overdoing the catch. Through clear demonstrations and underwater footage, you'll learn how to make your stroke more natural, efficient, and shoulder-friendly.
A great episode for swimmers looking to improve their freestyle technique while reducing unnecessary strain.
