I'm 38 years old and started swimming for fitness about 3 months ago. I learned basic breaststroke in my late 20s but haven't practiced much back then.
Here is a video of my breaststroke swim.

If I sprint, it takes me about 33 seconds for 25m and 2:27 for 100m. I can maintain 2:40 per 100m when I swim long distances like 1000m, without getting tired.
I have two modest goals - Swim 25m in 25 seconds and 100m in 2min. How do I quickly reach these goals? Is my problem my poor technique or lack of strength (I'm skinny)?
Thanks in advance.
Excellent advice from Allen and drills from swimspire. Thanks, Ill find those usefull
One-eye king, compare where your hands are at the end of stroke/insweep to the athelete in the vimeo video posted. BTW, you have to remove the added space in the vimeo link (before the v) to get it to work
