Butterfly Swimming Technique. Timing. How to swim butterfly

[@DivyG-x7d]

I've been trying to find this timing part of the butterfly for a month. I asked everyone I could and watched every video I found but this is the only one where I exactly got what I needed. Thanks a ton brother! Now I won't have to clown my way trying to figure this out on my own. 😅 much much grateful😊😊😊

[@wowyaywowyaywow]

Your body will naturally find ways to swim faster. That is so true!

[@Ajajambo]

Excellent video and break down of the butterfly stroke. This is by far the most detailed explanation of the critical timing to perfect the entire stroke. I watchesd this and gave it a try in the pool in 2 seprate exersices. Pull and finish off on ski jump. This part is crucial since it's thr biggest mistake that every beginner does. The breathing timing with the arms at the right place.

[@sq5]

I agree. This is the only video I have seen so far that breaks down the timing of the stroke. Excellent work.

[@xuchenglin6256]

Exactly the information I need! The timing is what I struggled the most, I watched almost all the butterfly videos, but the timing is rarely mentioned... Maybe that's not a problem for many other people. I used to swam breaststroke a lot (learned when I was a kid, swam for years before I switch to freestyle as an adult), so I find myself always tend to swim the butterfly the breaststroke way (they are similar! and if you still call it butterfly), that is the legs stay still when pull, during recovery comes the first kick, then comes second kick when gliding, then start next pull... just like the breaststroke timing but with an additional kick! It's weird but it works... and it's the most "natural" way for me... Though I know it's not the right way, but when I try to do it right, I found the tricky thing is I cannot find the information about what's the correct timing. It's more than "one when you finish pull, one when your hands enter water" -- when to bend knee, bend how much, when to kick, it's a quick kick or slow solid kick... That all makes people confused... And additionally, I found to build the timing, the single arm butterfly drill works very well, it's strange but when swam freestyle-like single arm, it's much more easier to coordinate the kick the same time with the pull, perhaps because in this way only the timing is different, you only focus on one thing and it makes it easier. Thanks for making this video, gotta "time" my stroke more the next time in the pool.

My 8 y/o daughter is currently learning the butterfly in swimming lessons. I have been looking for videos in helping her to break it down - from breathing to the stroke. Excellent resource for mastering techniques. Much better than watching races as the slow motion is more effective, thanks.

[@TakiMakiGames]

Great videos man, just watched all of them. You should do one video just on drills techniques by themselves. Maybe another with suggested workouts.

If you have been watching my videos, Have you applied any of the recommendations I suggested? Have any of the videos helped you? let me know :)

[@PeLuRu4586]

Skills NT Very instructive video! Next time maybe it would be nice if you can do a full swimming video (with and without slo-mo). :)

[@SkillsNT]

Will do! Thanks :)

[@vanjka39]

the videos are awesome

[@JohnSmith-cy4nn]

Going to try it out today. So far the most clear explanation of the timing. Thanks.

[@philippebackprotips]

Yes, and they have been tremendously helpful. How? Because they focus on the challenging points and are not too loaded with disparate information. Nothing beats practice, but your vids are helping in targeting that practice for me. Keep them coming. They get better every time! I would add one thing for butterfly kick that worked for me is the drill with putting a kick every second underwater and trying to get down to like .80 or so. Because without that there is no way to swim butterfly with those 2 damn kicks.

[@taharbousmid5554]

Well this one video is the most explanatory of all videos about butterfly technique, now I think that I understand that my timing was wrong, thanks to this video, I'll be able to work on my butterfly more efficiently. million thx Skills NT

[@Bombelus]

The best butterfly video ever!

[@loneranger66888]

The coolest styles .. love it

[@YuDali2009]

The most important thing is PRACTICE! SWIM FAST!!

[@朱辰恩-x5b]

Firt phase with second kick and Second phase with first kick. Am I right?

[@teokokho9060]

Wow. Thank you for this video. I requested for butterfly timing some time back. Could you do another one on butterfly arm pull. It seems like there are a few school of thought, key hole; straight pull, straight pull ending at the bottom of the belly; or how wide to pull from; etc. Thank you :)

[@SkillsNT]

+Teo Kok Ho thanks for commenting! I'll do that, I just have a couple of videos I want to get out first ;)

[@SUDHIRMYLA]

Best video..best explanation ......thankyou very much ....🙏

[@abcdefg4887]

한글을 아실지 모르겠습니다. 제가 본 수영 영상 중 가장 훌륭한 영상과 설명입니다. 다른 영법도 부탁드리겠습니다. 고맙습니다.

[@maikekonig3722]

I also have a problem with my butterfly, but I do not known the mistake. How du you avoid that your arms stay too long in front before repeating the move. So my Frequency is low and for the sprinting that is not good. Do you have tip?

[@SolRama-tt9od]

I do 3 kicks per arm cycle, is that ok? I just swim for fun and I don't pretend to go to any competition, adding one kick during the gliding allow me to be nearer to the surface of the water and it makes easier the jump of the body over the water. Also it is funny because only training dolphin kicks in all sessions for months when I have tried Butterfly I am as fast or a bit faster than Freestyle, which I find weird because I consider my Freestyle is good and it is my main training.

[@jotagalvan]

Thank you so much

thank you 😃😃👍👍

[@allenlin88]

Very helpful!

I can't get my arms to fly off the water surface like that! :( Are my kicks too weak? Am I not arching enough?

[@SkillsNT]

It is probably the kick. The kick begins with your core so make sure your are also using your abs and back muscles

[@LeonardoRivillini]

Gr8!

[@skiiipawbs]

When I kick I find that my feet come out of the water and make a thump sound. Am I pressing my chest too deep?

[@blockbasher6475]

“Your body will find way to go faster” ))) the main idea in the video )))

[@zeeporah640]

Im gonna watch this then go to practice and forget all of it

[@hasanmuzakki_sastrainggris546]

Damnn this tempo is so hard to match with my sense i hope it get better

[@darlysonreis8579]

I need to train this swim

[@IrwanJoe]

Excellents

[@hehno1]

if you glide more you sink deeper so its harder to swing your arm and it slows you down

[@radhikapotdar3603]

Yeah, I thought, watched and found ans on that once when I was learning butterfly.. when you come up, like a dolphin you have to jump little bit. So automatically you come up, hands also out of water, perfect posture. After going inside the water, press your chest as showed in this video. So here, legs come out of water just for a second. ( As if our legs, are our tail) observe how dolphin jumps and how fluently ,gracefully it itself as well as it's tail goes down. We have to do similarly

[@radhikapotdar3603]

We do have to glide zigzag but in the same line. ~~~~~ this way. So we will never sink inside as we arent swimming downwards but straight. May be for this case, keep your head down, hands straight touching ears. Go ahead !

[@bobjkr9870]

Very helpful video, i just learned butterfly style this week, my struggle is when my hand arrive inside the water after recovery mode, i have to glide longer than in your video, i cant practice like in your video which means your glide time is very short, I have to glide. Much longer then i just can enter the pull mode, Is that the problem for newbie butterfly style? Sorry my bad english im from indonesia Thanks if anyone can help. Me, hope you understand

[@bobjkr9870]

Can anyone suggest me how can i enter the pull. Mode without glide very long?

[@bobjkr9870]

I just can't synchronized my hand and my kick, and when i train butterfly mode it takes a lot of energy, And is it better to use long fins to. Train butterfly? I can train freestyle much2 faster by using long fins and centrel snorkel by the way.

[@xuchenglin6256]

@@bobjkr9870 use normal swim fins, and try single-arm butterfly, breath to the side (basically single arm freestyle with 2 butterfly kicks, 1 kick syncronized with the pull, the other one after the recovery, just like butterfly) . you'll find the "ejected" feeling much more easier, perhaps it's because in this mode you only have to focus one new thing -- the timing, everything else is the same with the freestyle, I find it a magical drill, hope this helps!
