I'd like some suggestions on how to improve the BR kick. I've been working on flexibility and legs strengthening exercises but maybe I'm missing something. I can barely kick a 100 under 2min and I can pull 100 in 1:44. I'd like to get my kick down to 1:45 and my pull down to 1:30. I have three weeks before a meet. What are your thoughts?
early vertical forearm doesn't do much for breastroke
except on underwater pull outs
do your kicks without a board,
arms out in front
take quarterstrokes to breathe
focus on 25 speed,
use the solution I provided in

Not sure what your problem is
probably a combination of:
1) conditioning
2) technique
3) flexibility
4) strength and
5) age
some people have better feel for the water with their feet
David Guthrie told me to kick with narrow knees
I often see Brendan Hansen kicking *** with a pull bouy between his thighs
I've been doing more breastroke sprints in practice
so far I've gotten slower
