This is true, BUT, you have to teach your body to do that...hips, core, and legs, should all be kept from sinking, by your own body. You can use pull bouys for a bit, but, I think thier use should be kept to a minimum. I know some swimmers become addicted to them, as it makes it easy to keep your body in line, thus swimming is easier.
They do is isolate the upperbody, which CAN lead to shoulder problems if proper technique is not observed.
Just my 2 cents worth.
Great pic of s good freetyle technique...
