Why is it that often older people do a version of butterfly that looks very beautiful but leisurely, like water ballet as my coach says? What is it that we lack that prevents us from doing an energetic, aerobic looking butterfly. My coach says the snap of the legs will do it and I am working on that. Anything else? Thanks

I can't do fly well to save my life. After 11 yrs. of trying my club coach gave up. Went home from college one year & practiced with my club team to keep in shape. We were starting a set of 10x200s fly. My coach says to me "You can do IM if you want." He finally gave in and realized that no matter how hard I tried, I was never going to be a flyer.
I just don't get it. I have fr. down to a science, but fly is apparently beyond my comprehension.
