I just read the Speedo tip of the week about "muscling" the recovery in buttetfly. I'm definitely that guy. I love the butterfly and want to swim faster, but seem to be stuck with the same times over and over. I'm sure my recovery has something to do with it. Any advice out there beyond the speedo tip of the week or is it really a mental thing that I've turned physical?

One other thing I remember having done when I was a kid, in preparation for the 200, was to lay on the bed face down and recover forward/backward for about 15min/day.
But that's because my coach at the time was threatening to throw a chair on my back during the last 50m of my event, if my fingers had touched the water during the recovery.
