  • good thing hes cute otherwise this  video would suck;)

  • Bad technique

  • Notice when his hands enters the water he pulls right away. THAT IS WRONG. You must glide a little with hands out stretched and then pull. Without the glide recovery the stroke timing will be off. Your hands will feel like they get trapped in the water at the end of the pull.

  • your not pulling properly.. but ure sexy i wanna sex wid u

  • but what he says is right

  • this guy makes Phillip Toriello look like Bob Bowman when explaining fly, to swim fly your first kick is the big 1, this happens after the underwater body dolphin phase, you kick so that your body comes out of water, chin low on recovery, then just as your hands are about to re enter the water you kick again big or small, and repeat the cycle, This took months of hard workout to master, so be patient and it'' be rewarding as it makes your hips and shoulders strong and flexible

  • Hot but not helpful

  • I take a breathe every other stroke

  • you should also include how your feet kicks on your video while breathing... this is the most problem of the beginners how to do it in perfect timing.... right?

  • A better title would be 'How NOT to Do the Butterfly Stroke'
