Video insights

@swimsy.co's TikTok video "❌ Wrong: Moving your arm out to the side before the freestyle pull ↓ • Your arm moves outward before starting the pull • You push water sideways instead of backward • Your hand and forearm lose their effective position against the water • You waste energy without creating enough forward propulsion What happens: • Less effective propulsion • More unnecessary movement • Reduced swimming efficiency • More effort without extra speed ✅ Correct - Bend your elbow and pull backward A good freestyle catch should be: • Start by bending your elbow • Keep your elbow relatively high as your forearm angles downward • Position your hand and forearm to catch the water • Press the water backward underneath your body • Continue pushing backward toward your hip What changes: • Stronger catch • Better use of your hand and forearm • More effective propulsion • Less wasted energy • Smoother and more powerful strokes 💡 Simple tip: The goal is to push water backward, not sideways! Small changes in your freestyle catch can make a big difference in your swimming efficiency. #swimtips #swimcoach #swimtok" has 746,150 views, 11,699 likes, 40 comments, 912 shares in the public metrics captured by this index.
