Making sure the back doesn't slope in freestyle can help swimmers go faster.

Why do it:
When the swimmers stabilize their core, they can rotate quicker and decrease resistance that can come from the hips dropping.

How to do it:
1 - Hold the pull-buoy at the ankles and swim.
2 - Tighten the mid-section of your body to make sure the hips stay on the surface, not sinking.
3 - After a few strokes, drop the pull-buoy and swim, keeping the core tight, and the hips close to the surface.

How to do it really well (the fine points):
By working on stability first, when this skill is mastered, we can them move on to focus on length, and catch

In a workout setting, when the swimmers drop the pull-buoy, it leaves a great target for underwater dolphins to go back and pick it up. This incorporates a couple skills into a consistent set.
