I noticed today that I do this:

:(
My kick is definitely already done by the time I need to breathe, so my arms need to push down to get my head out of the water, wasting precious energy that would better be used to push forward. All this up-and-down means I have died at the end of nearly every 200 butterfly I've ever done.
How do I fix it?
Yeah, I think a one-arm fly drill is a good way to practice this.As long as you are actually doing a one-arm fly drill and not a one-arm free drill with a dolphin kick. If you rotate your shoulders or breathe to the side during the drill, you are probably doing a freestyle arm recovery (one-arm free drill); not fly.
