I find myself being very oriented toward short axis. I find that my butterfly is just as fast as my freestyle and my breaststroke just is fast as my backstroke. Anybody else experience this? Could be that I just don't swim enough. Also does training for butterfly and training for breastroke compliment each other well? Mostly a butterflier but also somewhat an IM'er and am wondering if i train breastroke more than i have will it still be beneficial to fly or should i just stick mostly with fly?
Thanks, Steve

Actually had a major breakthrough today. For the first time toward the end of practice i could actually sense my hip position in the water and when i made a conscious effort to keep it high i found the stroke got immensely easier (felt more fluid and less tiring). Crazy thing too is i've been swimming butterfly for many years and tonight was the first time i truly noticed it.
