Sprinting Perfection -- Therese Alshamarr Shows The Right Way

DateFriday, October 28, 2011 at 6:27AM

Sweden's Therese Alshamarr is considered the top short course sprint female butterfly specialist in the world. Her attention to detail puts her in a very small class of technicains. Note her starting position (eyes down, knees bent, arms straight, thumbs on the front of the blocks), explosive leg drive and missile straight streamline. On the turn note the speed she gets her feet on the wall, hands together and how she demolishes the field with superior underwater ability.

One more thing . . . notice that she doesn't breathe except on the turn! This video was shot at the 2011 World Cup Meet in Berlin during the finals.
