Notes
Freestyle
Thinking of pace, not taking first rep after fail too fast. Use complete arm for pull
Did not think about extra propulsive force during stroke phase except once.
Backstroke
Remember to be springy and seek natural pathways when swimming backstroke. Relax the spine into a curved, cupped position for springiness and let the arms pull in their natural pathways. These techniques/thoughts produce desired results.
