I have swim tryouts today, and I can only do the freestyle and the backstroke. Is there a possibility that I will make the team? (highschool swimming)
hey toriello, thanks for all the videos, in the past 2 weeks my swimming improved by at least 70%... i just take my lap top to the pool, wach your videos and practice about an hour everyday...
but i'm having trouble with water getting in my nose when i do the flip turn...
@leomitz just make sure you DON'T try to breathe, i used to have this problem. maybe try holding your nose the first few times to get used to not breathing and then you'll be able to just hold your nose/breath underwater(:
Actually, the "frog kick" has nothing to do with breast stroke. NEVER allow your knees to come apart! It's actually more powerful and there's much less drag. Remember, NEVER allow your knees to come apart.
@nicolas1999444 remember how he said at the beginning that breaststroke consists of four steps? Pull, breath, kick and glide. You kick as fast as possible as soon as you are in your streamline which is right after the pull.. If you wanna see a good animation search for: Breast stroke animation. It really helps to get to know the timing.
P.S: I'm a breaststroker on my high school swimteam :b
@nicolas1999444 If you watch when it shows him swimming the breaststroke, you can see he beging to pull his legs while he is pulling his arms inward and pulling his head out, then as he puts his head back in the water and glides his hands straight, that's when he finishes the kick.
So the same time he finishes the 'upside down heart', he is snapping his legs.
Good phases partage, but to explain to a beginner swimmer the superpose of phases: try to keep the legs in streamline position as you pull with the arms; when you gether the arms to the chest begin to bend your legs; in the first half of reaching your hand in front, when you descend the head in water, try to finish bending the legs; in the last half of reaching the hands in front when the head is in the water begin the propulsion with the legs, keeping our head between arms horizontaly
@FunnyBunny2134 it depend wether you are racing or not. they tend to say that in a race you do about a 1 second glide and in training normally a 2 second glide but also it depends on how far you are swimming. the longer the distance swimming the longer the glide.
Good Lord! Some of you people posting with your inane comments REALLY need to get a life. This guy is on here devoting his time and effort on showing others how to do the breast stroke properly and all you can say in your comments is "he's gay". WTF does it matter if he is or not?
I'll bet most of you don't even know how to swim..so why don't you find a deep lake or pool and...!
@02chevyguy Yes, most of these comments are not even about the actual swimming part of it and the reason they come to watch these videos is to find something bad about the person, yes, and they also must be not knowing how to swim at all REALLY PEOPLE HE IS GIVING HIS TIME AND TEACHING YOU GUYS HOW TO SWIM PROPERLY IN ALL HIS SWIMMING VIDEOS AND ALL YOU GUYS COMMENT IS ABOUT BAD THINGS ABOUT HIM.
fail technique you want to push the water back not squeeze it together + u don't want to drop your knees u have to keep a straight body line for the least resistance
lol.he is gayy probabli n it doesnt affect me but his techniques suck.imean havv u seen his dolphin kick???garbage.idont think he kno what hes talking about.
The ones that are complaining about him being gay are dumbasses. Seriously, it's the 21st century, homophobia is an outmoded and outdated concept. Grow up.
Thanks to watching this video i passed my lifeguard swimming test, i had no clue how breast stroke was done till i watched this video. Thanks alot livestrong!
