i'm really new to fly stroke,i don't have a coach,but have watched others doing fly,when i tried i could do it but seemed to take loads of strokes per length,also it tired me to do just 25m,i can do 2500 breastroke without stopping,maybe about 100 free before getting very tired,any suggestions ,workouts with weights etc to assist me to getting better.perhaps a simple explanation of the fly stroke would be of help too.

    They gave you good suggestons. If you can get some lessons from somone else or private lessons that how I learn it as a kid . Also, you may want to use a breaststroke kick with the fly arm pull. You amaze me on breaststroke I can't swim it that far and I do a 1:43:31 as a 46 year old woman. You must be a natural or do you swim with your face up. Another secret with fly is conditoning, I'm a lot better than last year because my conditioning is better.
