Thoughts on the Breaststroke

It seems to me that over the last few years there has been a real revolution in the breaststroke. During the 90's nearly everybody was swimming (or trying to swim) the dolphin *** stoke with the upper body nearly perpendicular with the water surface and the swimmer trying to leap forward. During the last few years I have noticed a return to the more classical breaststroke, particularly in the 200m. in general there seems to be more of a mix of *** strokes. Has anybody else noticed this?

  • Leisel Jones was all I had to see to know flat is fast. oh yes flat is fast, but literally, different strokes for different folks. all my life of swimming i did the flat stroke thinking that was my "fast" stroke, as fast as i could get. only after 20 years of being a breaststroker have i learned differently.
