‫How high should we lift the elbow while swimming freestyle Olympic swimmers.
‫Lift the elbow as high as possible in order to create a stronger pull in the water in West limited technique.
‫We tried to lift the elbow as high as possible but without stress it means if you will try to lift your
‫elbow as high as possible you will feel stress.
‫Well we are going to do is put it a bit lower in order to flow better and create less stress in the
‫neck shoulders and of course in the lower back.
‫So if you are a in you're not flexible you should lift the elbow not so high above the water.
‫If you are a b it's in medium level.
‫If you are c you can lift the elbow high but not like Olympic swimmers.
‫One of the most important things if your flexibility is not so high and you can't lift the elbow at
‫all.
‫Swim with your hands straight in by depth.
‫Going to create less stress and you're going to float much better in the water.
