Watching video playback showed me I was climbing like a grandma

I sent GoPro footage of myself on a removal to my old crew lead in Portland, and he said "you're swinging your whole body up every step, use your legs or you'll burn out by lunch." I spent two weekends reworking my footlock technique with shorter, faster steps and it cut my ascent time on a 60 foot Doug fir from maybe 8 minutes down to under 4. Has anyone else filmed themselves and found a basic habit they could fix, or is it just me that needed that awkward wake-up call?
