Swimtips: Head Position in Butterfly In butterfly

Swimtips: Head Position in Butterfly

In butterfly we are focusing on keeping eyes looking diagonally down when breathing. This encourages the following:
- Body stays higher in the water
- Maintaining head and spine alignment
- Encourages a quicker breath
All resulting in a faster butterfly!! 🏊‍♂️🏊‍♀️

Hooked Swim’s key butterfly drills! For this drill:
3 left 3 right 3 full strokes is a great drill to develop the timing of your butterfly breath and kick. There are two kicks in butterfly, the 1st occurs when your hands enters the water and the 2nd when your hands exit the water. Focus on getting your hips up, and up and down sweep in the kick.
This drill also allows swimmers to focus on the timing of their breath which is to be initiated at the front of the stroke with the head back down before the arms recover. With junior swimmers we recommend using fins to assist the correct technique! 🏊🏼‍♀️🏊🏻‍♂️
