i would try to focus on a quicker recovery, so accelerate the arm movement when its above the water. time your kick correctly to kick your left foot at the moment your right arm is leaving the water and starting the recovery. Just my experience that the underwater arm will naturally accelerate to match the speed of the the recovery arm. just want to give you guys something try I'm not a coach. edit if that doesnt work do more backstroke kicking instead of kicking on your stomachThanks for this post. Sorry for not posting on this thread all week. I was largely off ST this week due to business bandwidth but got to the pool everyday. I tried what you said, and rather than pulling harder I tried to swing my recovery arm over faster and I also kind of tried to get it to swing "wider" (example swing right arm a bit wider to drive down right shoulder down before the catch) and swivel other shoulder up....not sure if I am explaining this well, but trying to swim "less flat" and with more shoulder rotation.
