What do YOU need to do to have a major swimming breakthrough?"
I started this thread over in the work outs section which I think doesn't get as much traffic as the general discussion board
so here's the link
forums.usms.org/showthread.php
but my point is,
No matter what, the time between right now and your focus meet is going to pass, and the things you do to prepare for your meet is of the UTMOST importance.
the choices you make
the chances you take
swim hard in practice
rehearse racing
I want to read your story about your breakthrough.
Decide it starts today
that this season will be your best season EVER
What do you need to do to make this true?

We who practise the arcane art of butterfrog have the Force with us. Our strength is as the strength of ten because our hearts are pure. We bring beauty to a hag-ridden stroke while enduring the slings and arrows of outrageous envy-seized undulating misfits.
I finally remembered to give butterfrog a try tonight. It may not be coincidental that our coach assigned a 3x400IM set tonight (it may not be coincidental that he wrote it on the board and disappeared before we got there either...). The lifeguard managed to keep a straight face but it was clear that she was not admiring the elegance of my attempts at this new style. I have a bad feeling that butterfrog is easier for "one-kick flyers", or perhaps just generally coordinated people, to pick up. I will await the promised video before making another attempt. :D
