Hello from Japan.
I've recently started practicing DNF, and I'm currently stuck with this vexing problem. I can't maintain a horizontal streamlined position while I'm swimming underwater. To make matters worse, my butts are protruding upward profoundly for some unknown reasons. (I don't know what this is called, so I name it "butt protrusion" for the sake of convenience.) This butt protrusion gets remarkably worse during the arm stroke phases. My instructors point it out, but no matter how many times they tell me to keep my torso neutral, I can't correct it. It feels like somebody is pulling a string attached to my butts from above with some irresistible force. I don't know what's wrong with my body, and neither do my instructors. Does anybody here in this forum have any idea? Has any of you encountered a similar problem before? If so, how did you solve it?
