Hello sir, i am a middle schooler and i just recently joined swimming, and because of you&your videos, i learned how to properly swim and i even got to enter Intrams for our school and luckily i was awarded; silver medalist for Backstroke and that's all thanks to you. Until now i am super thankful, specially now that you posted this video which i really need to perfect my Butterfly stroke so I can be ready for our swim meet this weekend. 💪❤️pls keep posting videos and godbless! I'll be forever supporting.
@@eminem565 you see the T when you get closer to the wall? Look at that and take like 1 strong stroke or 2 if needed then you flip. Tell me if it helps.
I started swimming last year at 12 years old with no prior experience with competition and because of your videos I became the 3rd best breaststroker in the league. Thank you.
Almost of aspects of a good butterfly are covered. However, in my opinion, the reason why you start the EVF too late is because you rush your hand entry so they go immediately down away from the surface. Many good flyers press the chest deeper but keep their hands high, close to the surface and there they start catching.
Loving the stroke analysis videos! Recently discovered an enjoyment for fly. The two freestyle strokes at the same time is what made it click for me. Struggling with keeping my head and chin down though. I feel like if I don't lift my head up all the way I get a mouth full of water on my breath which causes me to keep it up through the whole stroke.
I like to sweep in (EVF) in and up towards my chin and when under the chin I do a scull ( to re orient my hands and forearms ) and start an "early" press sweeping down and outward. It is a shorter quicker follow thru that pops the hands and arms out in position for the next stroke. So many butterfly swimmers hands and forearms get "stuck" underneath their body on their follow thru. This makes the stroke much more difficult.
Fares, I’m stuck with my fly. After my arm recovery, my hands enter the water at 10 and 2, then I have no idea what to do with my arms before they begin to push. It’s right after my hand enter the water, before the main push… people on my team say my arms shouldn’t pause in that stream line position, that my arms should be rotating like windmills, but this feels like it slows me down. Others say my hands should move slightly outward to set up the high elbow catch, but surely this will break the streamline and I will loose speed between every push (or pull whatever). Now, I just improvise something really weird at that phase for every stroke and it’s just wrong. Sometimes I’m shaking my head and sighing as I swim haha
Good question! Think about power on the underwater pull phase and controlled recovery over the water. It’s not really a pause at the top, it’s more about finding your grip of the water and then accelerating through the pull phase
Is there any advantages in keeping the arms fully elongated in the recovery before they touch the water? I have seen some swimmers with their arms not fully straight on arm recoveries in their butterfly and that did not seem to cause any problems. Could it allows for faster arms recovery?
Don't you think if you focus more on a high elbow catch, you would catch the water earlier and your force of your armstroke would be directed more backwards?
I need help with my fly 😞i just idk i cant improve i did high intensity of swimming got all strength endurance and anything its just i cant control my strength and stroke technique maybe not suitable to me idk but i just cant break my 50m fly under 30 its been almost a year 😞
