Breaststroke technique - arms

A large proportion of the forward momentum is produced through the Breaststroke arm pull swiftly followed by a powerful leg kick. Contrary to some thought, it is important to keep the pull narrow and deep.

so, when I start learning this, do I start with the legs or the arms?

[markdurnford]

@mipmipmipmipmip I would focus on the arms first as it can be challenging to practice arms only when learning Breaststroke.

@afara2000 no if you do your time gets slower

[afara2000]

don't you have to go with head down while recovering the arms?

[computermaflunction]

your head is a bit too high and you pull back to much with the arms. other than that, great video :)

[armismanful]

it was so good training but not doing it perfectly on dirt

[SimplyCec1995]

You do it perfectly on land, but you seem to bring your arms to wide in the water before going under your elbows.... Or is it just the way it's filmed??
