I finally got some video to post for feedback on my Breaststroke; (must be breaststroke video day today). Many of you have offered me breaststroke workouts advice to me on another thread, and I have also tried to follow all your related feedback to others and incorporate it. Here is my best shot:

For background, I swim a 35 second 50SCY and a 1:15 100SCY, trying to make a 32 sec 50 and a 1:10 sec 100 to qualify for Nationals in 40-44 category.
Thanks for any and all help!!

I noticed your head stays very low and I think as a result, your feet (heels) come out of the water. I don't know what goes on below the surface but I suspect that you have a hard time getting into an EVF position. I like the way you finish your stroke and with that being said, I would use a pull buoy and time a 100 pull and work on making it faster. Also time your 100 kick to improve it. Your knees are out too far in my opinion. Watch Brendan Hansen's video's on youtube (it can only help). From one breaststroker to another, Good luck.
Go to Google and youtube and type in EVF+swimming to learn more about the importance of EVF.
