Long Course Meters
to narrow the breaststroke kick, I kick with a pullbuoy. Put it right above the knees. It's overemphasizing it. But if you take it out after a 100 breaststroke your kick should be nice and narrow.
Regarding "throwing" the hips forward, think "push down". That helps me a lot. A good drill for active hip movement that helps me a lot is swimming breaststroke kick with alternating fly and *** arms. That drill combined with *** pull with flutter kick also improves bringing your arms faster forward into streamline position.
Those are my 2 favorite breaststroke drills (other than floating on my back pretending to be working on my breaststroke kick....)
