I have a hard time not breathing while i do my 50 freestyle, is there some kind of exercise i could do don't tell me DON'T BREATH because i tried, and it doesn't work. Ha. I need a slow exercise that will get me to not breath for at least 21 seconds..
When doing back stroke, how many dolphin kicks are you allowed in a meet?
And in freestyle my dolphin kick sucks, but its SO good for backstroke i don't understand what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks for the Video, sort of helped :P
I still don't know if i could figure out what exercise he does to make his freestyle dolphin kick so fast.
Don't know if the video showed it: he does vertical dolphin with a weight belt. Also, crouches low on the floor and shoots up as high as he can go above water, dolphin all the way, with weight belt on.
Poke around on YouTube for other solutions. You can find videos of starts and turns. Phelps has his own fly DVD on the Swim Fast series (just google to find), with some of the drills he does.
Phelps has been swimming for something like 16 years, with individualized professional coaching daily. It doesn't happen overnight.
