Lesson 4:
3. The right point to submerge your arm
Remember this!
As to remember: The hand position should be as follows: Open your hand slightly (don’t keep your fingers close together, but not to far apart either – the space between the fingers should be about a half a finger between each finger). Don’t slap the water with your arms and hand. When keeping the elbow bend high, enter the water slightly slanted with your hand. The angle between your hand and the water surface should be about 20 to 30 degrees. Your hand should also be twisted inward at an angle of around 20 to 30 degrees. Just after your hand enters the water, stretch your arm forward instead of pulling it up or down. By doing this it is possible to reduse the bubbles forming. That’s the best starting position to then grab the water and to get the pressure on.
