Breaststroke Technique Question--What to do with the Hands

if you can't swim breastroke perhaps the best thing to do with your hands is pray especially if you are swimming an IM copy what the best does www.youtube.com/results actually drop by http://www.breaststroke.info and you'll find many answers Hi all, I'm new back into swimming after taking the last 14 or so years "off". When I was last swimming, the wave style breastroke was really just coming into its own and I never fully got it down. I'm trying to train it now but I have a question--are people still pulling their hands out of the water with each stroke? These seems like a terrible waste of effort if you're just going to push back down into a streamline... Thanks for your thoughts! Keith
