So right now in my swimming "career" - I know how to swim freestyle decently. I have some adjustments to make to the stroke and a lot of strength to build up, but I can swim it for at least a mile straight without feeling like I'm going to die.
I'm learning back, from my IndySwimFit video, I have a lot of learning to do. 100 Back is killer on me in terms of cardio... (25 is rough enough), the same goes with *** stroke although - 50 is a little easier, but I'm insanely slow.
I do not know how to do butterfly, and the thought of doing it is for some reason scary! :afraid:
I'm not sure what's the best way to go about this. Do I focus on back and *** and learning them to the point where I can at least do them pretty well THEN learn butterfly? Or do I just work butterfly into my repertoire now and then work on all 3 of them simultaneously? (Have you ever tried to do butterfly on your back with *** stroke arm movements? Its insane! :rofl:)
You are right, fins can help.
Just do underwater dolphin kick with arms streamlined. Once you have this motion working add the arms with the right timing, that is downward kick when hands go in and downward kick when hands exit. Go from giant fins, to zoomers, to nothing.
