Have you ever wondered why some people are fast butterfly swimmers and seem to cruise past others without breaking a sweat? It’s not because they’re exceptionally fit. It’s because they’ve got the technique right by developing their stroke with drills. This video is taken from the Effortless Butterfly program and gives away one of the drills that make a powerful pull in fly.

  3. Hi Judy,

    Sorry for the late reply. The best place to find half a second in a 50 is on the start.

    Faster reaction time, underwater kick and breakout. Most people have at least 0.5 second they can drop from the improving their first 15 meters.

    Good luck to your daughter!

  5. Hi Hiba,

    Do sets where you’re holding your 200 and 400 times. For example we will do 4 sets of 4×50’s holding 200 time with about 50 seconds rest inbetween each 50.

  6. Hi I love you’re website I am 11 and competed in 4 competions and I still can’t break my record which is 32.07 by the next competion which is after 1 week I have to get 30.? Please send anything to help

  7. Hello Brent,

    Judy doing as you told,to obtain optimum endurance,thank you..Now ..on her practice with her private coach,after she’s doing 95% of her effort,her pulse will be 170,(I don’t know if you can understand our middle east calculation)her coach thinks its low and the doctor said normal bcz she has high fitness,whats your opinion in this matter,as I mentioned before she just turned 13.

  8. If anybodies 50m butterfly just stand still at 28.00 what is the possible solution for that. And also if anyone have a back injury when he tries to do a dolphin kick faster,how it can be avoided ,and recover from it faster. thanking you. Sudipta Chakraborty. India.
