Are you a new swimmer or not too confident in the water? Breastroke is a fantastic first stroke to learn as you can swim it entirely without putting your face in the water (if you don't want to yet). It is also a great stroke for those with shoulder or lower limb injuries as it is a linear stroke without too much rotation of the joints.
In this video, Adam runs through the basics of the breaststroke kick, what to look out for and how to practice it by yourself. This is part 1 of 3 in our breaststroke series - check out our swimming basics playlist for the arms and full stroke videos.
