Swim Drill: Tennis Ball Breaststroke<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tennis Ball Breaststroke is a drill in which swimmers hold a tennis ball under their chin as they swim down the pool performing breaststroke, working on keeping the tennis ball in place in order to set proper head position.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is a great drill for younger swimmers who have learned the mechanics of breaststroke but are still working on the finer details of body and head position. Out of all four strokes, breaststroke relies the most on minimizing resistance with each stroke cycle, and a huge part of minimizing that resistance is keeping your head in line with the rest of your body to ensure a forward drive in the stroke. <\/span><\/p>\n

In young swimmers who are still mastering breaststroke, it can be very common to see them swimming with their head in an upright position. That forward looking position will often feel natural, but in reality slows down the stroke by limiting the propulsion and glide phase at the end of every kick. However, when teaching proper head position, it can be easy for swimmers to exaggerate tucking their chin and end up with a head position that it too low. The tennis ball helps to find that sweet spot in the middle while also reinforcing the low head position as they finish each stroke. If they try to lift their heads up at any point in the stroke the tennis ball will fall out and they will know that position is incorrect. <\/span><\/p>\n

A great way to incorporate this drill is to create a competition on who can keep their tennis in for the longest. You can start with a 25 and go from there, seeing who can keep the tennis ball in place for the most 25 repeats or the longest distance. Happy swimming!<\/span><\/p>\n

All swimming and dryland training and instruction should be performed under the supervision of a qualified coach or instructor, and in circumstances that ensure the safety of participants.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
