Very useful video i like it , but i wonder is breaststroke good for me while i have shoulders injury ( impingement) ?
So much better than any of my swim coaches
It's incredibly embarrassing that it took this long to learn proper breaststroke timing and position, but this is probably the best, most succinct breakdown I've ever seen.
Thank you!
So true! This is the best breakdown video.
LOL! well said, after 50 years of swimming I've just learned I was doing it wrong!
Moving your arms slowly is more relaxing, but it will cut your speed. Does the butterfly kick help propulsion?
Same here... 50 years old used to swim when i was a kid and on and off as an adult. Just now realized that The arm stroke and legstroke shouldnt be together. Tested it in the pool and the diffrence was amazing..
Thank you so much for the breakdown👍🙏
Well instead of a pool I'm learning swimming on RUclips lol 😂
It’s actually a great way to learn, I have learnt swimming from RUclips, and have mastered all four strokes, but it requires practice, good luck
@@OmarAli-yf2sv lol me too! That's how I learned
😉 same here
🤣🤣
Hehhhhh..🤣🤣 same here..
Swam in high school and college. I was never taught how to do the breaststroke properly. Kids are so lucky to have training g videos.
My 5yr old just made the team and swimming breaststroke - however she figured it out - and looks interesting. Super cute, but you know... 🤔 according to her coach she is swimming "just like a six year old would". Ok... I don't really buy that...? Basic habits can stick to you and can be hard to break. As she grows and gets stronger and body shape changes I'm sure there will be changes that may need to be made - some natural, some may need more focused effort... but some basic muscle memory building can happen on dryland I believe if need be, especially if the coaches are not willing to be hands on in the pool - of course to the extent she's interested in doing at this age - but feeding knowledge and the opportunity to learn is important. I think just showing her this video just to visualize what SHOULD happen already is a great start. So thank you for the video!! I love the break down of it and visual in different angles!! 👍👍
Your explanation is always useful: slow, clear, and precise. There's no need boosting pop music like some others. I improved my swimming a lot after watching your technics. Thank you.
I did it, finally managed to swim proper breastroke after trying for ages. Now it feels like I can go on forever without tiring. What I'd say to anyone trying to learn this is keep going, eventually you'll get it. What made it click for me is realizing it's all about feeling the glide, everything else seemed to fall into place after that.
for gliding, flowing near water surface is key. but to be near surface, you need flexible lower hips not to drop during pull. i think you have flexible body.
Now I understand why all those grannies were much faster than me…🤦🏽♀️
I'm 14, I'm swimming for 6 years now, I even studied swimming, and no one ever explained breaststroke that good to me🙈
Thank you for this video. I started swimming regularly again after decades of only very casual times in the water & not regularly at that. Breaststroke is where I'm focusing due to injuries & 2 cervical fusions. I found I couldn't remember any good mechanics on the kick & had no power. I was always a freestyle swimmer when I did compete all those years ago & breaststroke was definitely not a strong style for me back then.
I watched a bunch of videos, but yours is the 1st to really break it down in a view & way that I can visually process. I also appreciate the floor exercises demonstrated to help me work on this.
This is such an excellent, straight-forward breakdown. Very helpful exercises. Thank you!
Short but packs more info than many 30 minutes tutorials! Thanks!!
00:05 Timing
00:48 Ankle Cycles
01:09 Norrow Knees
01:52 Fast Breath
2:35 High Hips
love this! I was given pointers many many years ago by a world record holder in breaststroke and this is at least as good. On the other hand, I'm old, any much of what is described is well beyond my "breaking point" I'm as flexible as a redwood tree.
Why has no one ever given me good instruction on how to swim properly, even when I was in a club? Society in general does everything wrong that you can do wrong, even outside of swimming in so many aspects of life, which means I can only learn through constant trial and error and watching youtube videos of ever-increasing quality. Like the videos on this channel.
A very grateful endurance athlete.
I used this in practice today. BIG help. Thanks!!
Excellent! There are a lot of breaststroke videos out there. Yours is far better than any other I've seen!
Floor exercises:
01:02 ankle circled
01:27 narrow knees
03:15 high hips
03:35 hip flexor
04:24 hamstring slides
I exclusively swim bstroke, swan a 5 mile lake recently and kept up with many decent front crawlers. Have another coming up which is 7.5 miles and will be bstroke all the way. Really useful info (as teetering around injury) will be spending a few days resting and stretching and practicing out of the pool/open water. Thank you, great content!
Great instruction and illustrations. Thank you for posting it. Many of us are missing some perfection in our swimming strokes, as good instructors are few and far between. RUclips is so helpful in making up for that. Practice, watch again, practice, watch again, ...
This is a super helpful video! The models are excellent. And the on-land exercises. Thanks so much!
Thank you for this amazing video! I'm taking swimming lessons but my teacher gives me no directions other than "kick both legs at the same time".
Everything I learned was on RUclips tutorials, and this is one of the best I've seen.
Congrats on the great work!
Change the teacher. I also had a bad teacher, it's a night and day between good and bad teacher.
well he's still right. It's hard to talk about advanced technique if the basics are lacking.
Thanks. I've been a strong swimmer for decades but have been allowing my knees to move too far laterally all these years!
A great find. Excellent tutorial....for years have struggled with this . Will have something to practise when I can next get back into a pool....
As a beginner swimmer, after watching this video and a bunch of Michael Phelps' video, I was still a bit confused as to the timing. What worked for me is to look at the arm/chest and thigh/leg as two separate motions. You pull, breathe, straighten your arms, then on your way down you start to kick and glide. Then there's a split second when your entire body is entirely straight, then you repeat again. I find that looking at the upper body and lower body as two independent set of events helps a lot.
Do you start to engage your legs, pulling your ankles up, when you breathe? I’m also a beginner and I’m struggling with the timing.
@@Falcode101 for me it is after I've breathed in, after my head is already under the water. It is naturally easier that way because you don't have the resistance on the surface of the water.
Spot on, I tell my students to start in a pencil float, pull, breathe, kick & glide, then start the next pull or scoop as we call it 👍
@@catherinewoodrow8531 i saw bunch of people with their heads up at all time but i have difficulty doing that, so instead i breath in when i pull and either hold it or breath out for the most part, but i get exhausted too quickly. Is there a technique to keep your head out all the time?
Best advice for timing for me is the mantra:
Pull - Kick -Glide
This is probably the most detailed and helpful video I’ve seen. Thank you!
WoW...so good to get such succinct, dense information..and no background noise. Fantastic!
Love the hips exercices!! Really good Man.
I'll take these tips into consideration when I can get back into the pool. Unfortunately, we are in lockdown right now but I can't wait to use these tips when I can get back into swimming!!
Great reminder-video, it's already been 8 months again since the last swim, thank you!
great technical video that explains not just what to do but also why (and how) to do it. the best.
Bonsoir. Je ne comprends pas l'anglais mais vos explications en croquis sont explicites. Je vais regarder plusieurs fois votre vidéo afin d'intégrer la synchronisation. Je vous remercie de votre aide. Je vais avoir beaucoup de travail mais je suis persévérante... Donc... À un moment donné, je vais avoir le déclic 👍 merci encore. Bonne soirée.
This helps so much! I did it correctly before, then turned to my coaches for improvement. Turns out they completely transformed my stroke into the orange one at the start of the video. I get they make mistakes, but now I can finally drop!
Your way of teaching is beautiful. I've only started to learn swimming at the age of 36 and I fully appreciate this detailed break down. Love from Iran
best breaststroke breakdown ever. I learned so much from this, thank you!
Your explanations are so good! I slow the video down to 0.5 speed to watch what you are saying. It makes sense on land..... I wish I could take the video to the pool, but already I feel a difference. thank you for spending the time to make that animation, so helpful!
Best breastroke swimming illustration on the Internet! Really wonderful!!
By far the best video I came across, and I’ve watched quite a few so far
I loved this video, thank you very much! You explained it so well, easy to understand.
Thank you for the tips and exercises! Been doing too many things wrong 😑 I just subscribed, oh and love how you do “swim fast” at the end, haha
This is definitely the best online swimming couch. Thank you 👍
Thanks man. That was perfect. Going to practice that right now!
Learned all four strokes quickly on RUclips. Now will implement it on pool some day 😄😄
Best coach ever!
Thank you so much 🌷
Excellent. I realise that I am doing quite a lot of this naturally but really interested in the hip flexor part.
Awesome video straight to the most important points! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for all the tips and exercises! Helps a lot!!!
Great video. Thanks for the clarity.
Wow this is so much easier rhan actualky swimming. Thanks.
But truly... as a fat 52yo man with a very bad back... i have gone from 158kg to 108kg and from very poor breast stroke... like shockingly bad.. to a tolerable breast stroke.
Finally , 1.5years later i am now at a point wjere i can start to develop a more masterful swimming style. I am still very slow... 50m takes me close to 2 minute (with no push off... standing in water still start. No push off with rhe legs) 😢 but now thanks to your video i can start to work on those mistake areas. I apreicate you.
This brilliant, I watch this every time before I go swimming and do the exercises.
Thanks so much for breaking it down. I'll practice later on and execute
Thanks for this informative video. I've been doing the bronze technique instead of the gold standard. I will try this tomorrow at the Y.
This video is dope, thanks for the tutorial on how to swim!
I love your videos. they are really good. I started to learn swimming in September in my country (Hungary) but your videos are helping me a lot. I wish I could go to one of your swimming camp one day.
so far the best explanation and problem solving i've seen
Really useful, I am a swim teacher & I found this super helpful 👍
Thank god I don’t have issue with breast stroke sequencing; I got it naturally. However watching coaches explaining in detail how it being done is extremely helpful. I have been a lot more mindful of my coordination, core, arm movement, and breathing since watching this video when I practice breast stroke in the pool.
Thaks for the video. Tomorrow I have a competition of breakstroke and this video help me much
This is so helpful! My breaststroke improved a lot because of ur video! Thanks and keep making awesome videos.
That great to know! Thanks 😊
Fantastic in-depth video.
The stretching and exercise you shared are very helpful
Thank you
Smart, concise, great visuals.
10/10 love this video 🥰
Wow!! This is so helpful!!! Will definitely show my kids this video. Thank you for sharing this video. 👍
Thanks a lot. Watch bunch of videos and you describe it clearly with good animations. Thank you once again
These videos are so helpful and high quality. Concise as well
Thanks for the best breast stroke analysing video ever.
The animation is really nice. It helps understand the points being articulated
Super clear explanation! Thank You!
The video is very helpful, thanks very much for your effort.
Thank you so much. Has reminded me of what is necessary.
Undoubtedly the best Breaststroke Technique video available online!
Thank you 💞 for Informing the timing part
Of all the videos I watched, this one worked for me!
I like the video so much! The best of all I have watched on RUclips. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊.
Thank you!
Thanks, this was really helpful👍
This video os a diamond in the see of explanations and breakdowns!💪💪💪
Thank you!!
I have subscribed to your channel, The methods of teaching swimming styles are very useful for me to practice. Thank you .❤
Thank you! Best video ever!
Glad you liked it!
Your video is actually useful for some aspects of disciplines DNF and CNF in freediving.
This video? 🤔Interesting
@@SkillsNT The Freediving no fins disciplines have almost the same leg kick. The arm stroke in these disciplines are closer to the filipina but still, the coordination is similar to breaststroke.
This is my problem. I do a frogleg movement instead of kicking down. No wonder my hips sink.
Thank you very much for this great video❤️
Great video. The remedial exercies are a great idea.
Exactly what i needed, thx
Breaststroke is underrated!
初心者にも分かりやすい泳ぎ方です。
Good teaching and succinct instructions. Love the visuals
Thank you 😊
The best channel and best lessons❤
Great video! when performing bride with HS curls, try keeping your weight on your heels, this fires your posterior chain and turns off your Anterior Tibialis muscle. Or, are you trying to promote ankle stability for proper beast stroke technique?
One of the best explanation!!!👍🏻
im not very good swimmer so this is gold. have to challenge myself exhale under water. thank you for valuable tips
I just don’t seem to be moving forward. I will use this video to help improve
Thanks so much
It is so helpful, thank you
Thank you
very good explanations which r easy to understand. thank you.
Thank you for the video. If anyone can answer my questions, I'd appreciate that. When exactly is it better to start pulling the legs to prepare for the kick, when you've almost finished the arm recovery phase? When you've finished the arm pull and start the arm recovery? In your animation in slow motion I can see that the preparation for the kick starts half way through the recovery phase of the arm pull. Though I saw videos of professional swimmers and some started immediately after the arm pull, some when the arms are quite extended. Does it make much of difference? Is it a personal thing? I'm revising my technique, I feel I'm starting the kick preparation as soon as I'm done with the arm pull, but maybe I can still improve the timing by delaying the kick a little bit.
I've been swimming for years (Breast stroke ) and now realise I've been doing wrong this is a great help
Best clip for breaststroke ever. Watching whenever I am free. :)
Thanks!
Thanks
