The Butterfly Lane

Butterfly, beautiful to watch, difficult to train. We SDK off every wall. We're most likely to smack hands with each other and those beside us. Fly's fun to sprint but no fun when the piano comes down What did you do in practice today? the breastroke lane The Middle Distance Lane The Backstroke Lane The Butterfly Lane The SDK Lane The Taper Lane The Distance Lane The IM Lane The Sprint Free Lane The Pool Deck

  • Yes. I do 3 kicks per stroke. I haven't been able to tell what Ida Marko-Varga does. I've also done a lot of playing around with strokes per length. One of my favorite drills is to do 8 x 50 ... the first two are at 4 spl, then two at 5 spl, then two at 6 spl, then two at 7 spl. This helps with the various rhythms. In your sets this morning, did you count strokes per length? I think I was taking 5-6 strokes per length, but I don't remember exactly.
