Can you recommend drills that emphasize high hips? I have inflexible ankles and a poor kick, so I am always looking to increase my efficiency/streamline in order to swim faster.

Thanks.

Richard

Not long after that, I discovered that Terry’s emphasis had changed to “just-enough” rotation; lots of us were rotating too much, and I still am (according to Terry and several other observers– he has me “swimming flat” quite a lot.) How do you teach the “just-enough” amount of rotation?
