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?

I do one-arm drill. I was recently told that it looks too much like freestyle - that my arms look like mountain peeks. I've since tried to flatten my arms out and drag my thumbs on the surface. It feels okay, but a bit like I'm "flopping" my arms. Should it feel like that? Again, thanks for the input.
