All this back and forth between the breaststrokers and the freestylers (in particular) is all just in fun, right? I realize everyone has their favorite stroke (well, except for the IMers). I can't really swim anything other than freestyle, but I do enjoy the occasional bit of breaststroke (as long as I'm not in a big hurry and my knees are feeling okay). I think it allows me to concentrate on the catch fairly well which should help my freestyle, especially because I can actually watch what my hands and forearms are doing, not just guess based on "feel". So I guess in part I treat breastroke as a stroke drill for freestyle.
Yes? No? Maybe?

I guess I'm the flip-flopper on this one. I started my swim career as a flyer. I then morphed in into a freestyler. Now, I can't do fly for more than 50 yards because I can't build my endurance due to yucky shoulders. So, I've been working on *** and back. I actually like *** now! I.M. is the best race of all!:D
