Rotation with pull buoy

The child holds a pull buoy or a kickboard in their hands. The body is fully extended, and propulsion comes from flutter kicks. The child then rotates from a prone position onto their back and, after a few meters, back onto their stomach. The exercise is performed over 10-15 meters with at least four rotations. This exercise trains shoulder rotation, which is a crucial factor for proper side breathing. It can also be performed with a kickboard, which requires even stronger shoulder rotation to turn the entire board, making the exercise even more effective.
