I'm trying to help my buddy improve her posture. Noticed that she drops her knees constantly when still, frog kicking, helicopter kicking etc and its doing bad things to her trim. She cannot back kick effectively also because of this.
I've reminded her to thrust her hips out and to feel a stretch on the front of the quads. I've used my GoPro to take videos to show her where she's dropping her knees. But I have not been very successful, and she does want to improve.
We've worked at it in the pool and I believe her rig is balanced. She is able to balance motionless in trim and hold it there. In the pool.
But once we go diving, she starts to drop her knees again and starts to "seahorse".
What drills or exercises on land and in water can we work on to help her improve this aspect?
