I am so grateful for this video! I am learning the butterfly using the "modern" method (Shaw method) I got confused when the lifeguard at my pool started giving me advice that was more like the old method.
When I swam AAU and High School back in the 70's, they'd already figured out the best way to properly swim *all* of the strokes, hadn't they? I mean my aunt was a swim coach at Augustana back then, had swum in high school herslf and I think she was like in her THIRTIES. (Seriously, coming back in after a few decades away, it's amazing how much I have to relearn (and how much faster I'm getting) in *all* of the strokes now that I'm to the point where I'm trying to improve.) Thanks for all the great tps.
I am a hobby swimmer. In the past, maximum undulation was recommended. In order to find the ideal track for swimming, it is good to go to both extremes and then reach the ideal middle. I also train the butterfly with a snorkel to be as flat as possible. So, my head goes out of the water just so that my eyes are above the surface. The advantage is also that you can swim 1000 m at a time, the swimmer does not get so tired and focuses on technique and endurance.
Focus on forward motion in butterfly. Keep at. Swimming with a snorkel is great, but work on timing with the breath. Make sure to checkout the videos in our Butterfly playlist for more assistance.
@@USMastersSwimming I have difficulty recovering due to mobility in my right arm stemming from a dislocation while weight training many years ago. So I recover underwater. Works great for me.
Hey! I slways swam the mordern way and also teach my students the same... It just seemed logical to start recovery as soon as the pull was done near the hips to reduce the amount of work in between recovery and re entry.
Immediately after the breath, duck the head and also the upper body (to the position as if a a non-breathing stroke was taken). Last element after which I became satisfied with my fly. This is a great illustration video
Should I seek medical advice for any lingering effects of PTSD from my childhood drowning experience many decades ago? It hasn't had a major impact on me, except that I tend to swim faster when I'm in a different location. I swim, none-stop, my 4 kilometers, each day. It all started with a sensation of having water in my nose, but I didn't actually have any. Is this potentially dangerous for a swimmer?
WOW, They have been really working on this one in the last 20 years!
I'm 75 and I've been doing it like that for years, It really works.
Me too but I can’t do it anymore

Nice vid
Thank you for your sharing
Ooooh, definitely will take this instruction!
Always my nemesis but still loved. I will try this.
Let us know how it went!

I didn’t even know the technique had changed, so thanks.
Is the keyhole shape with the arms also redundant?
Thanks, this is amazing.
Thanks Susan
私が、まさに今知りたいと思っていた内容に出会うことができ、感激しています🎉
もっと早く前に進むために、胸をグッと前に沈めて、腰を高い位置にキープしたいと思っていたのです。
腰と、胸の落差が大きい方が重心が前のめりになり、速く進めるので、GOODです😊
また、呼吸も、下向きのまま、水面すれすれで呼吸しています。
だだ、まだ毎回呼吸なので、2分の1呼吸の練習をしたいと考えています🎉
いいね!👍️
チャンネル登録しました!
次の解説動画楽しみにしています😂
Thaks for the explanation....ok , my butterfly style is a hybrid between old and new school 😅
How is the old way called? I want to seevideos demomstration for that.
Is level 4 the highest? Or there is someone above you
USMS currently has 4 levels of Coaches Certification.
I would like to know, when the face leaves the water to take a breath, what are the arms and hands doing underwater specifically? Thanks.
Your hands and arms should still be pulling the whole time during the breath and pull cycle. They should never stop when you take a breathe.
Gary Hall Senior and I might disagree with you about the head motion. See his race club video on 'head position for a faster butterfly.
Stroke technique recommendations have changed since Gary Hall Senior days of swimming.
thx

Thanks for your note. Hope our video helps!
❤️❤️❤️🏊🏊🏊❤️❤️❤️
How many breaths can I skip until it's illegal? Or is there no requirement? I usually only breathe once or twice in a 25...
There is no breathing requirement. But, we recommend breathing at least every 3rd or 5th stroke.
Can you simply dolphin kick underwater long dustances post a breath above water.
@USMastersSwimming thank you!
I like the way 70-year-old Ann Kendrick swims the butterfly, maybe slowly, but effortlessly
I don't think the coach is swimming in this video.
Thank you for this! My butterfly however....
well let's just say I'm still working on it.🙄

Is that Misty Hyman?
No, the swimmer isn't Misty Hyman in the video.

Hi, it would be best to discuss your issue with a medical provider.
It's like swimming front crawl but both hands and legs move in parallel. I'm an amateur but that's how I swim bf.
I agree but just make sure you are swimming front crawl correctly or else your fly will inherit the same flaws.
Thanks a lot~~~
