Breast - Advanced

• These tips are for swimmers who can complete quite a few lengths of breaststroke with arms and legs working in time with each other.

STEP ONE

• To become a good competitive breaststroker you will need to undulate, which means moving the body up and down like a dolphin, as well as moving forwards through the water.
• Practise lifting your chest and shoulders as you pull - almost like shrugging your shoulders - and then dive forwards into a streamlined position again.
• Increase the downwards kick of your legs and then make sure your legs come back to the surface for the streamlined stretch position .

STEP TWO

• To put everything together:

- Circle the arms, squeeze the hands in and breathe in
- Whip the legs together and stretch the arms forwards
- Hold the body stretched and streamlined for one second
