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.

ArtShark,
You just need to go to my web site http://www.breaststroke.info, look Breaststroke Articles by other coaches. Just happens to be the first article. Bud Termin asked me to put it in web format.
We discuss this often. There are many merits to his proposal. The best would be no underwater stroke at all and coming to the surface after one second. The rules do not allow for this, and you will be disqualified:mad: There would be at least 5-6 strokes more per race, so you would have to be in better shape than every one else.
