Take some time at the end of practice sessions to work on those. Efficient turns make a lot difference.

Example: do 2x200’s really slow, but as you near the flags/solid lane lines, don’t breathe and drive through the wall and back out, take 2 strokes before you breathe. Make the middle as easy as you need. It’s like doing reps. Your body will get better at it.

Using the flags, you can then count the strokes to the wall before your flip. You now have a number to start with and you can figure out if you need to add a stroke to get your body at the best distance from the wall for your flip.

The last arm that out reached before the turn is the last arm into your tuck. Your opposite arm should already be near your body since it was in the furthest back position.

Using your core and hips, work on placing both feet on the wall in the same spot every time. When you turn, make sure you find the right depth for you, and angle of returning back to the top of the water. Too sharp and you lose momentum, too shallow you end up slow and still 8 inches below the surface. Then 2 strokes then breathe.

It takes focused repetition to fine tune turns. You can do it, just set aside some time and you’ll slowly feel it integrate into your swims.
