Hi everyone
Been learning proper fly technique recently, and can get through 25M with reasonable proficiency. But after around the 15M mark I struggle to catch a breath because of the increasing splash I'm creating, I can only think that it's my head position causing this problem because at this point my arms are just finishing the pull.Can anyone relate to this and give me some tips?
Cheers

Almost certainly. Michael Phelps never touched a weight until he was at least 18, probably older. You don't need to work out in a gym to be a fast swimmer.
Really? WHOA! I do think that for most of us having strong arms and shoulders would help in the butterfly.
My problem with my fly is that I think that taking a breath after every stroke is really slowing me down. But I feel like when I try a breath every two strokes my second stroke is too weak.
