    Thank you! This is a guide to help you swim butterfly without getting tired. It consists of 5 phases. I’m not saying that you will watch this video and you’ll immediately go to the pool and swim hundreds of yards without breaking a sweat. No no, on this video I will show you a series of progressive exercises that you can do to that if done well and often will help you create muscle memory for a smooth easy butterfly. Along with muscles memory you will develop endurance that is basic for all things swimming.
    Now you can do exercises all day long but at the end of the day there is no escaping the real thing. Swimming full butterfly is what will help you the most. If your shoulders are strong, your core is tight and you have good ankle flexibility, now that you have worked on your technique, you are all set to swim a smooth and fast butterfly. Just remember to warm up properly and stretch afterwards.

    I found these drills very useful to increase endurance and also to focus on the arms motion.
    Butterfly stroke is definitely the hardest but once you acquire the technique and you let the body moving in harmony with the water it comes very easy to keep your speed. Endurance is correlated to core and legs strength. Scheduling some workout in the gym will provide a great support to your swimming session.

    Greatest butterfly clip I've seen that covers much of what I stumbled on in the past four weeks (after having done badly for years "muscling" the stroke ) I wish I'd seen it years ago (before you uploaded it!)
    For me, I'd only add emphasis on a firm hip flexion AND extension after recovering the hands to establish a rhythmic stroke. I began to understand the stroke by dividing my pool time into drilling 95% and full stroke 5% .
    Great JOB!!

    I see there's 2 ways of executing butterfly catch kick. You kick when you start the catch making the 2 kicks very close in time. But there's people that execute the kick at the end of the catch, making the 2 kicks more separated in time. Which one is correct?

Every single sport needs flexibility agility and control of the body, once you started ballet evey single other sport is so easy to start and have control. I started liking swiming 3 days ago and now I am feeling like a pro. Just watching this videos and practicing. So remenber BALLET is the key

    My shoulders don't have the flexibility to do the fly any more, but I do practice the dolphin kick because I need that for coming off the wall. I am wondering if there is any particular reason to practice the kick up side down? I can really see one difference between right side up and up side down, and that is, for some reason, the amplitude/up and down stroke seems to be smaller when upside down, and I can do a much bigger stroke when right side up... No clue as to why. I only swim the up side down way with fins. I do swim right side up with feet and also fins, snorkel, and kick board.

    Well, 2 years later, I am trying to remember how to swim the fly.... My lap pal said he would learn my over arm side stroke if I took up the fly again. Funny thing I noticed with the kick, is that there does appear to be a surge kick as Gary Hall Sr. calls it, or a power kick as I call it. It is on the stroke where you breathe. You both use a higher amplitude kick when you breathe, and a less amplitude kick when you are not breathing. My dolphin kick is pretty whimpy....

    May I ask if my beginner drill is of use for others, who have never had the chance to learn butterfly or dolphin kick at young age and where I can go from there as these shown drills throw me into pure embarrassment😂.
    I am very comfortable with breast stroke,
    so I add on a dolphin kick after the breaststroke kick, arms stay extended and head stays under water and actually goes a bit deeper when I try initiate the dophin kick.
    I have no one who can check what the heck I am doing. It feels like a dophin kick and the butt seems to come up above water level befor my legs kick and sometimes I think my feet splash a little.
    Then I pull, come up with head, dive in, kick, go into glide and try again.
    Within 50m my belly is sore and I pant like after 500m breaststroke....
    So I guess my core is still too weak, despite being so much better than a year ago when i started swimming regularly ?
    Now, if I try dophin kick only, I seem only able under water to do 5 in a row???
    (I suck at breath holding especially when out of breath from cardio)
    As soon as it's at water level I start slowing down and look like a drifting embarrassing, helpless, butt bobbing log.
    Is there a way to train the kick without being the entertainment for other lane swimmers? 😂 My pool is always busy, i went at 5am opening, 6, 7, 8...I hardly am alone in a lane and always others in other lanes.
    As one fellow swimmer commented on my beautiful (?) breast stroke, I since know, damn it, they watch and look!

    I had another "Aha! " moment swimming tonight. While dolphin kicking face down, I let my hips loosen more than my usual reluctant wiggle, as directed by my YMCA swim coach. When swimming full stroke, my hip flexion much more aggressively moved my hands and chest forward. In our 25 yard pool, I counted six or seven full strokes after pushing off from the wall and three body dolphins--down from the usual 8 or 9. I know I will wake up & realize I dreamed it. :(
