DESCRIPTION

Fingertip drag drill This drill forces the swimmer to keep the elbow high while her fingers stay close to the water. That position should be maintained all the way through the recovery phase. The difference between the drill and normal swimming is that normally you want to raise fingertips one inch above the water. This drill also focuses on relaxing the unnecessary muscles during the recovery phase. If the upper back muscles are too tense and tight, try making a wider arc on the surface with the fingertips
