The latest threads clearly reveal that the vast majority of masters swimmers wish breaststroke did not exist (except Peter, Allen, Aquafeisty, and a possiblely experimenting SCY freestyler). So why does everyone hate breaststroke? :mad:
I'll go first. I hated it when I was young because it was too slow, I never learned how to do it right, and I never learned the wave action because it didn't exist when I was young. I can't seem do get the timing right now. And I have no excuse. Unlike my shoulder, my knees are fully intact. Not sure I have the gumption or time to put in 100,000 yards for a complete overhaul on a stroke I don't swim in meets. But I'd like to be able to fake it in IMs ...
Good for you, baby sister! I hope you get a secret nemesis on another team too. It's easier to keep it a secret. Will we be seeing a breaststroke avatar today?
Definitely not ... I swam the fly leg ... Rick is a breaststroker, one of a few on the team ... My secret nemisis is in a younger age group, but she is my nemisis because she I train a lot harder ... she tends to skip out on sets she doesn't want to do and she never warms-up ... it drives me a bit crazy ... she is a distance swimmer though, but she is a flyer so down with her! ;)
