How to swim: Butterfly

I have seen lot of videos to learn butterfly but this video is so convincing and informative although it's short but it's content. Thanks 👍. Cheers.

I have been swimming wrong butterfly for 10 years. Now I have a coach that is trying to correct my stubborn mistakes.

Helped me alot

90% of swimming teachers teach this wrong and they don't even know it. That doesn't help people trying to learn.

It's interesting how she has her hands palm down on recovery instead of the traditional thumbs down. I teach both.

Oh and thanks for mentioning the CHEST. So many know it all's bang on about just the hips but I'd argue the chest is first and therefore more important. Especially if you want an easier arm recovery.

Nice

Kick your arms in, and kick your arms out.

It still totally confuses me that people have no trouble understanding that the dolphin kick comes from the upper body and goes to the feet, but some how think it goes the other direction when doing the flutter kick. Both kicks are a 'crack the whip' action. One uses a body wave, the dolphin kick. The other uses a spiral action, the flutter kick. Nothing else changes. For any land based sport that uses spiral motion, like golf, throwing a baseball, or a Karate punch, your feet have to be anchored on the ground, either by standing with feet spread apart, or stepping into the action. In the water there is NOTHING to anchor your feet on. The action starts at your feet, travels through your hips, to your shoulders, and out through your finger tips. Add to that the main arm action in swimming is pulling, not pushing. Your hips rotate as a unit. Your shoulders rotate independently in swimming, other than the 'windmill' style used by the men in the 50 meter sprint. WITHOUT exception, every single freestyle and back stroke swimmer, whose arm stroke and kick are properly linked, the pulling/low side arm will initiate the rotation just slightly before the down kick (freestyle) happens. You don't even need slow motion video to see this. This also holds true for the 50 meter sprint where the arms stay opposite of each other in the pull.

👍👍👍

OMG I’m horrible 😢

I cannot say Butterfly is the most graceful stroke. You will also change your mind when you see how I does it.. lol

Extremely challenging yet the most beautiful stroke of all🦋💙

She enters palms first. Something Michael Phelps was known for.
Edit: MP around 2000, later he modified thumps first 😉

Wonderful. The final part for me to understand was to initiate the chest press while the arms are still on water surface. Only then the hips can be prevented from sinking.

The day I first tried to learn this stroke was just before my meet the next day. What worse is that the coach substituted me into the the 200im in place of my teammate. Safe to say that I was not prepared at all. I learned it while I was racing. Had to or else I'd DQ.

Butterfly is regarded as the signature of a swimmer.However it needs many many practice to master,for sure.

Brilliant vidieos

best tutorial I've seen on butterfly

What do you mean by the "chin is tilted slightly" for breathing?

Beautiful

美しい‼️

I need to learn to swim this stroke. My niece has a shot of going to the Olympics with just this stroke alone, so, I want to support her and feel how it is to swim using that method.

太难了，游不动。 It's hard to move.

watches this right before my swim evauation hMm
