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 ...
Ok let's just recall that I danced through my teens, then hit the gym, then got into Football (soccer for the unenlightened). Throughout all of my various activities and seasonal weight swings..I've alwasy considered my calves to be quite, well, awesome. I could be a sock model!
/flexcalves. I know what my avatar is going to be next week now! :joker:
OK, you two sock models, I expect avatars. We can all vote on who has the best calves. I might even put my breaststoke up sometime so we can all have a good laugh. But only if Islandsox and Heather will too.
