Does it help to have long legs?
Is it a hinderance?
Does it make any difference?
I keep wanting to revert into a whip kick.
:rolleyes: this one is gonna take a while.
Oh, yea, even when I do get the motion right, there is hardly any propulsion. I get much more out of a whip kick.
I think I'm still missing a muscle or two to pull it off.
It's so frustrating when something doesn't sink in. I know, I know, keep practicing and experimenting... and just like everything else, one day it will click.
Yeah, I'm very sore today. I suppose that means, I'll be growing muscle where I need it.
Wayne thanks for all of your information on Breaststroke. I have a question regarding your thinking on breathing. I also believe that breathing every stroke in the 50 may not be the most efficient. My question is regarding the first stroke after surfacing from the turn, or after the start. I read an article and have since not been able to find it again, about a study conducted at the University of Buffalo. In it they explained that when breaking the surface after the underwater pull the swimmer comes to an almost complete stop. They claimed that by not breathing on that very first stroke you could vastly improve that hesitating. What are your thoughts on that? Also do you know of the article I am refering to? I believe it was on this site somewhere. Thanks for your help.
