“Alex, try
flaring your elbow out less,” said Coach Jerry during a practice session.
“Less?” I replied, unsure of the change.
“Yeah. You’re flaring too much. Excess body movement slows you down.”
“OK, I’ll try,” I said. And you know what?
IT WORKED.
This slight tweak allowed me to exit my paddle from the water faster. My strokes became quicker and more efficient.
YES.
This breakthrough was the result of personalized coaching.
The best way to iron out the kinks in your technique is to have a coach who watches you and provides thoughtful analysis. Personalized feedback makes all the difference.
You just need to find a coach who will work with you one-on-one.
