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

  • After having a couple of months in the Masters program, swimming with the group 2x a wk, I have increased my swim yardage ~12k per wk. Previously it was under 10k. My fly is okay, I am slowing increasing my endurance--still fatigued b/w 75 and 100 yards, but improving and still working on relaxing as my hands/arms/chest enters the water. I am now increasing my repetitions for 75 yards (now 2). I am content as the slope of improvement is positive. Rurrell85, good luck. Just keep on trying and if you have time check out the guidance here and some of the better teaching aides in Youtube. FYI, I am not good in other strokes, only decent in fly, and my free is slowly improving but remains poor.
