Hy swimmers and coaches,
I need of your help…this is my last competition, the time, isn’t my best, but I want ask to you what you think about and how I can improve this stroke and swim faster (suggestions, corrections of mistake, etc... will be appreciated):agree:

I have a question for those of us trying to just to increase their distance in the fly. i'd really like to put together a decent 50 fly so that i could eventually try and race a 200 IM.
Interesting question. My only solution to this is to do all it takes to stop being feared by the distance. For me, it's the 200bf I prepare for. My solution was to develop a technique that is slow enough to use it to build a decent endurance base - at butterfly that is.
And so, for few months, all I was doing in a pool was: 5x200 butterfly, no warm up no cool down nothing else.
Now, I am not afraid at all by longish butterfly sets.
The key is to cut down on energy expenditure. You have to accept though that endurance butterfly isn't a fast stroke. It's often better to start last swimmer in the lane on *specialty* (or at your choice) sets. I usually let the breaststrokers go first if I am to commit in a 400-1000m set.
This approach is controversial though. A lot of folks think that if you practice slow butterfly, you will endup being slow even if you want to go fast. I disagree but I may be wrong.
