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 ...
Somehow I see an adults only section to this forum being added
For those of us who have coached all ages of swimmers, the only difference between an 8 year old and a Masters is the Masters have credit cards.
Us oldsters have better developed calves too.
I think Rich's earlier post actually scared Allen so much he fled the scene of the crime.
