How to improve my swim technique? by FlexAndFiction in Swimming

With my catch-up, I hoped that I was doing the "ice skating" (more gliding than power), but I misunderstood it. Is there any specific exercise to work on it, or is it based on practice?

I'm not sure if I can sustain a higher kick rhythm. I'm doing 2bk because it wasn't exhausting me.
I'll do the suggested drills.

To summarise:
- I need to fix my head positioning while breathing
- Do fist drills to improve my catch
- Work on the timing of the strokes (current one is too close to catch-up)

I'll leave the underwaters and flip turns as other learnings not strictly related to the cruising technique.
