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.

my coach also had me doing breaststroke pull with dolphin kick; fly pull with breaststroke kick and recovering the arms underwater. I felt the correct timing for the first time with the underwater recovery... when you get the timing right you will know it, it feels right, just like the breaststroke timing feels right.
I've read this numerous times and for those of you who do not read German, like Ion, there is an English translation.
