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

  • Thank you all for your clarifications. My butterfly has actually taken a bit of a hiatus status. With joining Masters, I have been swimming with the program and increased my overall swim yardage (my free is getting better). This is part of my plan to increase endurance, but the downside has been that I have been more fatigued and my times/distance has taken a bit of a hit. The additional plus side is that the Masters program gives me more motivation to work on my fly drills. However, swimming all out fly for multiple repetitions is not easily done with the Masters program, but that is fine. When swimming solo, I notice that I can complete my previous sets and not be so fatigued, but my times are off by a second or two. I will take this for now. I still love the power of fly.
