Why is breaststroke so hard?

When I swim *** stroke and stick to proper technique, I get much more winded then when I swim Freestyle or Backstroke (but not as winded as when I swim butterfly). In fact, I don't even know if I could finish a 200 yd *** stroke race. Why is this?

    Tim, thanks for the drill work ideas. How/when do you breath during the drill keeping your hands behind your back?
