I thought this was very interesting. I thought he kept his head loo low for best streamline.
Obviously has a good breaststroke kick, but his push off streamline could be better. And I actually feel a regular breaststroke done underwater is more efficient than continuous pulldowns.
The Japanese used to stay underwater for up to five minutes in the 1950's, thay swam the 200 meter *** with 5-6 total breaths.
Best I ever did was 100 yards as a kid (16) underwater, but that was before asthma. But at swim meets I ALWAYS swim at least 4 seperate lengths underwater to open up the lungs, and I never breathe out.
When I was young I was taught to exhale during the underwater stroke, but now I never do.
