How To Step Up Your Butterfly #theraceclub
Most swimmers lose speed in butterfly not because of a lack in power but because of too much frontal drag generation in an attempt to generate power.
Here's what we like to focus on at The Race Club:
1. Higher elbow pull to reduce drag during your catch
2. Early wrist extension to maximize backwards propulsion
3. Ascending trajectory recovery to improve coupling
Small technical adjustments can make the difference between a novice and elite butterfly swimmer.
