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 ...

And you're whining about hating breaststroke? I would love to swim that time. Makes my 38 a bit pedestrian by comparison. I think I'll retract my challenge to race you in the ***. How about dog paddle?
Well you guys are way faster than me... at around :44 but that is no dive and after a 10 x 100 set...maybe I should switch to freestyle...
:applaud:
