Faster Swimming With an Early Vertical Forearm Position in All Swim Strokes

Friday July 21, 2006
It’s simple, if you want to swim faster, improve your propulsion! Effective propulsion revolves around an Early Vertical Forearm (EVF) position. This vital component of swimming is also known as a Catch, a Feel For The Water or a High Elbow Stroke. An EVF is the engine of a swimmer and research accompanied by new EVF training technology will be changing the way they train. (Thomas Topolski)
