Why are some of us breaststrokers terrible at backstroke. Most of my swimming career except at around 12 to 14 years old. I'm been a terrible backstroker. Is it because breaststroke uses very different muscles. Fly has never been as bad as back but fly of course came from ***. Freestyle as a youth was the 3rd best stroke and and as an adult the 2nd best stroke. I know some breastsrokers mastered the stroke and some can't do free too good or fly.

    I don't *get* the breaststroke at all. Short of going backwards. Backstroke just clicked for me, like, oh, yea that feels just right. I don't know fly yet. Will be going to a clinic at the beginning of october. I'll let you know how it goes. I like the fly kicking, that part I know how to do.
