Not that new. Some help. Have good head/spine alignment the whole time. Don't lift the head allow the motion to carry you out of the water. Keep the same alignment and be looking down at the water. Your mouth can be only a couple inches above the surface of the water. Much more streamlined. Keep the kick within the circumferance of your body. Again more streamlined. It will allow longer stroke length. Make very quick circles with your hands as your elbows come to shoulder level. Rebecca Soni had the quickest hands and that one a major factor in her being the best.

Thanks will give it a go

Great video. Always something new to learn. By the way, is the best technique to breathe on both sides on a three count or on one side on a two or four count?

What can I do to improve this? Would stretching help?

Angle of the elbow is different for speed vs endurance. Just saw that earlier today. Me, I can't swim like that to save my life. Love the video.

I started swim team in 74 and swam breast stroke this way because the other way hurt my neck.

Cool, I doggy paddle so arms never come out of the water and face never goes in the water.

And the underwater portion, after the start?

Great new technique

LUL, i haven't go swimming for over 7-8 years, last week, a friend ask me if i could teach her how to swim breaststoke. After watching her swim, i told her that her breaststroke technique is weird, then i show her the old way. Kids around come and ask me for instructions.I told them to follow their guide. I knew something was wrong but I couldn't explain it., thanks for your video

Very helpful

Thank you for your sharing

I really liked the part where they actually explained what a six beat kick actually is. "In short, your swimmer should complete six kicks per stroke cycle or three kicks per single arm stroke."

Text box should v been at bottom corner...it's obstructing view

Great condensed show, Took me multiple years and lessons to grasp what she taught in minutes.

Just realized this new way of pull down when my boy went to a private coach, our team coach still using the old way. Very clear of explanation. Thank you

Thanks, Scott, for your dedication and teachings. I think you'll love our Muscle & Joint Pain Relief Cream products and would be a great fit for a partnership. Let's discuss further and send you some products to try out.

Awesome, can't wait to get to the pool.

thx

Fantastic!

thank for sharing

Free advise: use a nose clip

I wondered about all that.

Wow man, that old vs new technique videos are amazing! Love it! I don't get everything but it's very interesting!

What happened to early vertical forearm? That's all I hear about on other youtube swimming channels for freestyle. And i remember reading how Cokie Lepinski said to pull as though we were swimming over a barrel. If EVF is now outdated, why don't you mention it as outdated? You mention the S-pull (which is really outdated), which Doc Counsilman not only created, but also discovered in elite swimmers, I believe, your point that the hand enters and exits the water in the same location. I am a U.S Masters swimmer.

THANK YOU SCOTT, great & ilustrative vídeo, I really appreciatte. Best regards

The "S" pull is inefficient .....now they try to enter the water more from the top, so create momentum with a hand and arm moving more back to straigh line and avoid the "S" turbulence. You can see that in the olimpic: relentless move of the arm, as moving in slow motion to enter with the hand digging Of course, swimers need to have strenght to do a stright line arm recover, but hey!...that why they do gym exercices specifically for that. Tip for the master's coaches: they must include specific gym resistant exercises and they should relax the water trainning session following that

A flexible back seems like an Olympic swimmer skill. The major issue is a kick without any torque. This kick is quick but without any grip on water. It is not efficient except for cardio. Many swimmers kick fast at the beginning and move their legs outside the water. Olympic swimmers curve their back, which looks like the motor trim on an outboard engine so yoga can make myself a faster swimmer.

This is very very interesting for someone who's done breaststroke only for 25 years.

Thank You for this beautiful and informative video!

The modern style is old style

if this happens, you could get a hematoma if you hit it hard enough. Takes 1-2 weeks to heal.

Im the goggle fidgeter that gets really nervous and forgets to move around and warm up and realizes I’m just stand there with my arms crossed for ppl who don’t know swimmers move around before a race to get there heart rate up so they don’t have to do it in the water

This modern breast stroke looks an awful lot like the way I learned it in the 60’s when I made the transition from frog kick to whip kick.

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.

🏊🏻‍♀️🏊🏻‍♂️

,😂😂😂😂😂

I'm 75 and I've been doing it like that for years, It really works.

I think Ralph was ahead of his time when is came to stroke analysis right? Nice job Susie.

The head position is going for a heated debate now. I still think the proper position is like what you said, slightly down to the chin.

The secret to a more efficient open water swim with breaststroke is through a dolphin kick. I believe it's time for fina to reconsider the rule again.

“Hey I’m hungry! We need the emergency food!” *lifts butt” “Go ahead, eat”

Backstroke is the hardest stroke for me to learn because I am unable to swim straight. It's hard when I can't see where I'm going.

Love this old vs new technique series, keep it up

Amazing video, thanks ❤

without breast is the new way😆
