forums.usms.org/.../icon9.gif FLY 100m?!?!?!?
Hey guys, I've been swimming for about 6 months now. I swim 4 or 5 times a week for about 3 kays. I recently started butterfly a month ago and almost straight away I could do 30m, but I just can't go any further. I know I've got a good stroke cos a coach I see sometimes said so.
I was wondering if anyone had some drills or anaerobic exercises that would help me do 100m or more cos I've been stuck for ages.
Thanks :drowning:

What is the proper timing between kick and hand entry? (And are there drills to improve the timing?)
S
it takes a lot of words to fully describe proper timing for fly kick and pull
I suggest you watch underwater videos of great flyers and copy them
Novices tend to
pause too much with their arms,
have too much up and down motion, &
have too much knee bend on their kick.
Fly is a flat stroke with a slight undulation
My favorite fly drills are:
SDKing &
1 arm fly drill
