Other than it being "slow", what is with all the breaststroke haters? Just curious because I happen to think it's a beautifully powerful stroke.

And, to everyone else's point, if you learned it in the 1970s, completely impossible to change.
No it isn't. I learned *** stroke in the 70's and never swam competitively,so it was pretty basic.When an injury forced me to give up most other forms of exercise I got back in the pool, only to find that the way I had learned the *** stroke was completely inefficient.With the help of my kids swim coaches, my pools aquatic director and by watching hours of footage of *** stroke and reading about various techniques I have gotten to the point where I am happy with my *** stroke.
It was not easy, but I am glad I did it-it's the best stroke ever!:cheerleader:
