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

  • The other issue maybe I am not breathing enough. I do one breath and then no breath. For a 50 or 75 that is fine (at practice, perhaps at a meet that will be okay for a 100), but when I turn to go from 75, I fatigue and feel short-of-breath (SOB)--unless I go slow, 100 yds 1:14 slow. I also feel SOB when I try to do B-fly sets in a normal training interval manner--I need more rest than the prescribed rest time. So, I will try to do sets where I breathe more frequently 2 breaths and then no breath. Will see.
