If you’re taking 50 strokes a lap but should be in the low 40s, the issue might be your body connection — not your strength. In this episode, we explore how elite swimmer Becca Mann fixed her “shoulders and hips not connected” problem, dropped her stroke count by nearly 20%, and became a record-breaking open-water athlete.
You’ll learn what shoulder-to-hip connection really means, how to tell if you’re disconnected, and the simple posture cues and drills (like 6-1-6 and side-kick rotation) that instantly improve your distance per stroke.
A quick, practical guide to swimming farther and faster with less effort.
