The 4-Hour Body - An Uncommon Guide to Rapid Fat-Loss, Incredible Sex, and Becoming Superhuman - Timothy Ferriss
3. In line with the aforementioned video of Shinji, think of swimming freestyle as swimming on
alternating sides, not on your stomach. From Wikipedia's TI page:1
"Actively streamline" the body throughout the stroke cycle through a focus on rhythmically
alternating "streamlined right side" and "streamlined left side" positions and consciously
keeping the bodyline longer and sleeker than is typical for human swimmers.
For those who have rock-climbed or bouldered, it's just like moving your hip closer to a wall
to get more extension. To test this: stand with your chest to a wall and reach as high as you can
with your right arm. Then turn your right hip so it's touching the wall and reach again with
your right arm. Making this small rotation, you'll gain three to six inches. Lengthen your vessel
and you travel farther on each stroke. It adds up fast.
Below is what a full stroke should look like, demonstrated by TI founder Terry Loughlin.
