Breaststroke

Time key frames:

 

First of all good job on learning a new stroke! 

0:02

Remember in breastroke you should breath every time you do a stroke, so when you pull with your arms bring your head out of the water.

0:21

The pull make it shorter/smaller, your arms are pulling too far back. Your elbows should never cross the line of your shoulders.

0:31

When you kick change your feet to dorsiflexion position

Areas to work on, in general:

  • Work on one thing at the time, start with breathing every time, with the help of your hands when you pull bring your head out of the water, then move to the next point 🙂 
  • Keep up the good work

Time key frames:

Time

 

1:34

The first thing you have to focus on is bringing your kick closer to the surface, you are doing too many kicks, the more kicks doesn’t mean you will swim faster or be able to bring your legs up, keep less.

In swimming you want to have a good relationship with the water, if you fight the water you wont move forward, if you try to glide and move through it will be much easier.

1:31

Look at your knees you are moving them up and down, remember the kick comes from your hips/core. 
Do not push your knees down, keep your legs and hips straight at all times.

1:19

You are swimming smoother the last day, but still you need to finish each stroke, when your hand goes in the water stretch it all the way to the front then rotate, do not start to pull right away.

Areas to work on, in general:

  • Work on flutter kicks as a dryland exercise, and keep you legs as straight as possible.
  • Work on kick on your back, and focus on having your legs straight and your feet touching the surface.
