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?

Recently I went to a butterfly clinic and the speaker talked about thinking about landing your hands on the water rather than entering the water. I use a one armed butterfly stroke drill where I land my hand on the water, but let my back and head go limp so that gravity will sink them below my hand. As my lungs start to push my upper body back up I start the pull and breathe to the side. Try this, it works well with the group I coach.
I'll give it a try- thanks!
