In this episode, we’re diving into one of the most misunderstood pieces of freestyle: the recovery. You’ve probably been told you need a “high elbow.” Maybe you’ve spent way too much time trying to make your recovery look pretty instead of making it functional. We’re blowing all of that up today. I’ll walk you through why the way you bring your arm forward absolutely matters, why mimicking fast swimmers can actually slow you down, and why your shoulder blade — not your elbow — should be driving the whole show. We’re talking recovery types (straight arm vs relaxed), the problem with "front quadrant" freestyle, the real reason fingertip drag drills can backfire, and how your recovery sets the stage for everything that happens next. Swimming isn’t about looking good. It’s about moving well. Let’s rethink your recovery and make freestyle way easier — and way faster.
