Breaststroke swimming technique tutorial. Part 2. Legs.

In the last video we talked about the importance of timing during breaststroke. We went over the first stage, which is the arm’s movement. On this video we will go over the second stage, the legs. The legs during breaststroke are essential because they will generate an important amount of propulsion of the stroke.

Recovery
Many beginners to the breaststroke tend to kick at a wrong time. The kick should actually start right when the hands are in the recovery stage about to shoot forward. You should bend your knees while keeping your ankles on a plantar flexion. Before the knees are completely bent, change your ankles to a dorsiflexion.

Out Kick
You are now set up in a very powerful position to kick. Your hands are now extended forward and are acting as the point of an arrow, cutting the water in front for the rest of your body. Now extend your knees as fast as you can. Remember to keep your ankles on dorsiflexion to grab as much water as possible.

Inside Kick
Now that your knees are extended, you need to do two things. Bring your feet together and put your ankles on plantar flexion. Keep your ankles like that until the recovery of the feet starts again.

As you can see, breaststroke involves all the muscles in your legs. So to gain coordination and activate all of those muscles you can practice doing this drill.

The third stage of the breaststroke is just as important as the other two. So make sure to subscribe and wait for the next video!
As always I will try to reply to all of your comments.

Damn ive been searching for this kick tutorial. It’s exactly what i wanted to know whether to keep my ankle at a 90 degree when kicking. This helps immensely

[evelynclark]

Videos are helpful as well as entertaining.

[davidmoore]

I just love the Breaststroke it's one of my favorite strokes!!

[teokokho]

Brilliant video. Really, really helpful. On a separate note, could you do a more detailed video on butterfly, especially with regard to proper timing and some drills to sort things out a little.

[timha]

over 10 year of teaching, I found some people get the way to swim breaststroke so natural, other just don't know how to turn the foots out before the kick ( like what you talking about from Plantar Flexion to Dorsiflexion). that is right.
to top it all, even they know and they can not do it much better, because they can't see how their foots actually complete the kick. They believed they did kick as being taught !! just once they see the video that recorded (by cell ) how they completed the kick with their knees open before the kick, ( instead turning the foots ), they even said that could not be me! In general, I think the video is great, but without a personal coating on side, to tell to tell him/her when they do it right and when they did not. the success is hard to achieved. Do you agree?

[Jenesis]

I always associate the kick with the fastest way to squeeze the water between the legs. It isn’t just flexed feet kicking water but the power of two legs go from knee bend to straight, in the process squeezing the water between legs out. This notion to me create the most propulsion forward.

[ferrod]

Great, I found my mistake I Kick before I strech my hands forward

[Harrisooon]

what type of exercises can you do at home to improve the kick and getting the foot flexed?

Awesome video, thanks! Do you have a technique you advise when you have a poor ankle mobility not allowing you to flex your foot enough before the kick ?

Breaststroke technique swimming. Part 2
평영 기법 수영. 2 부

In the last video we talked about the importance of timing during breaststroke. We went over the first stage, which is the arm’s movement. On this video we will go over the second stage, the legs. The legs during breaststroke are essential because they will generate an important amount of propulsion of the stroke.

지난 동영상에서, 평영을 할 때 때맞춤(timing)의 중요성에 대해 말씀드렸고, #1단계인 "팔 동작"에 대해 다루었습니다. 이번 동영상에서는 #2단계인 "다리 동작"에 대해 다루겠습니다. 추진력의 상당한 부분을 차지하므로, 평영에서 다리 움직임은 필수적입니다.

Recovery
Many beginners to the breaststroke tend to kick at a wrong time. The kick should actually start right when the hands are in the recovery stage about to shoot forward. You should bend your knees while keeping your ankles on a plantar flexion. Before the knees are completely bent, change your ankles to a dorsiflexion.

되돌리기
많은 평영 초보자들이 잘못된 때(timing)에 차는 경향이 있습니다. 실제로는 손을 되돌리는 단계에 앞으로 쏠려고 하는 순간에 차기를 시작해야 합니다. 발목을 발바닥 쪽으로 굽힌 상태(plantar flexion)로 유지하면서 무릎을 굽혀야 합니다. 무릎을 완전히 굽히기 직전에, 발목을 발등 쪽으로 굽힌 상태(dorsiflexion)로 바꾸십시요.

Out Kick
You are now set up in a very powerful position to kick. Your hands are now extended forward and are acting as the point of an arrow, cutting the water in front for the rest of your body. Now extend your knees as fast as you can. Remember to keep your ankles on dorsiflexion to grab as much water as possible.

바깥쪽으로 차기
이제 아주 강력하게 찰 수 있는 자세를 취하고 있습니다. 이제 두 손이 앞으로 뻗어 있어, 몸의 다른 부분이 지나가기 쉬워지도록 맨 앞에서 물을 잘라내는, 화살촉의 역할을 하고 있습니다. 이제 최대한 빠르게 무릎을 펴십시요. 잊지 말고, 물을 최대한 잡기 위해 발목을 발등 쪽으로 굽힌 상태(dorsiflexion)로 유지하십시요.

Inside Kick
Now that your knees are extended, you need to do two things. Bring your feet together and put your ankles on plantar flexion. Keep your ankles like that until the recovery of the feet starts again.

안쪽으로 차기
이제 무릎이 펴져 있으므로, 두 가지를 해야 합니다. 두 발을 모으고 발목 자세를 발바닥 쪽으로 굽힌 상태(plantar flexion)로 바꾸십시요. 두 발을 다시 되돌리기 시작하기 전까지는 발목을 그렇게 하고 버티십시요

As you can see, breaststroke involves all the muscles in your legs. So to gain coordination and activate all of those muscles you can practice doing this drill.

보시다시피, 평영을 할 때는 다리에 있는 모든 근육을 사용합니다. 그 모든 근육을 활성화하고 근육 간의 협동 능력을 키우려면, 이 부분훈련을 연습하십시요.

These tips and techniques will work best to help you improve dramatically your stroke if you do two things:
1- Focus on one thing at a time
2- Practice until you dominate that thing and move to the next.

당신의 영법을 극적으로 향상시키는 데에, 이 비결과 기법들이 가장 효과적으로 적용되게 하려면, 다음 두 가지를 실천하십시요:
1 - 한 번에 한 가지에만 집중하십시요.
2 - 그 한가지를 완벽하게 할 수 있을 때까지 연습하십시요. 그런 후에야 다음 단계로 넘어가십시요.

I will also do another series of videos for the other strokes, including starts and turns. There will also be drills and other fun stuff, so make sure to subscribe!

발사와 벽돌기를 포함한 다른 영법들에 대한 비디오 연재물도 만들려고 합니다. 또한 부분훈련들과 재미있게 즐길 수 있는 것들도 포함하겠습니다. 그러니 잊지 말고 구독 버튼을 눌러주세요!

I swam for 15 years in the competitive arena and I hope I can transmit my knowledge as clearly and simple as youtube allows me to.

Finally, what I am really passionate about is learning new skills. So the point of this channel is to spread the intrinsic joy that all humans share when we learn something new, doesn't matter how insignificant it might appear.

For the breast stroke, when pushing, how far should the arms open?

[clevernickname]

Yesterday at a meet my coach put me in a 50 breast. I've never done it in a meet before and I started with a flutter kick...

Biggest face palm of my life.

[sebokuc]

This style was once recommended for therapeutic swimming, such as treating spine curvatures. Currently, it is not recommended because it significantly builds up the front muscles of the chest, but hardly strengthens the muscles of the back. This is clearly seen in professional swimmers of this style who are hunched over due to a mismatch in muscle mass. However, for the treatment of spinal defects, this style on the back is recommended, where the back muscles work significantly, and both types of crawl, where the circular motion of the hands is very beneficial.

Hello i love breaststroke but i have problems with my hips dropping which can slow me down a lot at meets such as 100 or 200 breast and i cant seem to fix it even when i try my hips just keep dropping

[thedoctor]

When I'm kicking I go backwards or nowhere... I'm assuming this is because my ankles are in dorsiflexion?

A problem i've had with breast stroke is hurting my groin muscles on my kick. How can improve technique to avoid that problem?

[homirk]

Is breaststroke recommended when u have a torn miniscus?

[marshallmatters]

great video! I can't swim (breastroke 50m) faster than 37 seconds, the stagnation in the results.

[jesusnlandon]

I am a beginning swimmer, what are the top three swim goggles do you recommend? And how do you maintain them from fogging while swimming?
