    Uau, great analisys… all that help me... I know this video, is one of my prefered…but I have a double age and more of this young swimmer, I have begin to swim 4 years ago, I’m not so strong and I have a limitated flexibiliti of this swimmers, but... I want improve my butterfly. I have understand what you mean and I think is the really mistake that consequently causes other mistakes. I want repeat that, when I start to swim in training with one first single lateral arm and after double, I feel a exact body position and coordination : The recovery single arm and after double is low the body position is flat near the surface of the water and the first kick down my body and push forward the body at the same time I cick, the arms expand the catch is very high, at the high of neck and not at the lower of the body and prepare the second kick the arms make a “S” underwater, in race go staright the recovery is relaxed with palm turned down fall in the water is better and so the body position is not vertical But in race I feel that this is delayed and do not understand how to improve... The problem may be the first strokes after the breakdown, exactly the first catch??? Often I make the drill to feel the water, I paddle with arm in front... There are a drill or all other thing to do to correct this defect??? Sorry my no good english. Thank. Easy
