HORIZONTAL EGGBEATER
As with the other strengthening drills, this can be done in 200yard sets with 15-30 seconds rest between.
Horizontal eggbeater is done with the body in a face down horizontal position, hips on top of the water, head facing forward, in the direction you will be moving. Eggbeat as usual to propel your body forward., working on developing proper form as well as building stamina.
Hands can remain in the water in front of you sculling, or for more difficulty lock hands behind your back. It is important to keep your face and shoulders as high as possible. Coaches should modify workout based on the individual strength of their players.
