SWIMMING SIMPLIFIED.
TIMING OF ARM CYCLE IN CRAWL AIDS PERFECTION OF STROKE.
Here's how you can master the arm action in the crawl stroke:
Let each arm emerge comfortably extended but, as one drawe clear, throw the hand outward and around to make the forearm form a half-circle, folded at the elbow. When the forearm points ahead, start the arm forward, a few inches only above the surface.
This brings about more complete muscular relaxation during the recovery and better enables the head and shoulders to retain the correct position.
Each arm should drive from a point close to an imaginary line drawn lengthwise through the middle of the body, so that the left dips in front of the left eye and the right in front of the right eye.
When entering the water, cach arm, with palm down and fingers closed, should be a little short of full reach, a trifle bent inward from the elbow. The arm should sweep backward steadily, bending elbow after about one-fourth its pull. Hold arm under the centre of the body until it nears the thigh and the elbow moves backward slightly ahead of the hand, enabling the forearm to retain lifting and moving pressure on the water. As the hand nears the high, it swerves outward and, just before it emerges, it is turned inward, palm toward the leg.
The arm cycle should be so timed that each will start its drive before the other leaves the water in recovery.
