I'm new at the butterfly stroke and struggle to do 6x33yds with a freestyle return(100 ft pool) in one workout. I do these with a full recovery (3 min). After that I'll have to switch to some other stroke because I'm pretty much shot.
What are typical workouts and distances that strong flyers do that I should try to build to? I'm thinking that 10x50's would be a great goal?
SwimmerLisa and, ummm, "Allison",
Thanks for the dolphin kick tips. I will definitely try the 6 kicks - one pull thing. And yeah, the 25's of SDK will be good. I know I can SDK a lot faster than I can flutterkick underwater (like coming out of a flipturn)... Now I just need to remember to do it in a 50 free, too!
