Breaststroke Technique - How To Swim Like Adam Peaty

This video is the second in a series of technique videos on my channel. I go over the basics on how to swim breaststroke faster, while also giving tips for more elite breaststrokers. I show how to use the Adam Peaty technique, what has made him the fastest breaststroker in the world by a huge margin. Thanks for watching, and be sure to leave a like and subscribe!

This set of stroke instruction videos are a Godsend! Watch all of the other vides by Race Club and My Swim Pro if you need to hear all of the fundamentals. When you are plateaued and need to take it to the next level come here. Derek has an extraordinary ability to cut straight to the point and focus on what's important. The confirmation that the stroke should remain small and the kick narrow and fast is pure gold!

[paveletoo]

what are good drills to make the feet angle out, my feet seem to be pointed forward through the whole kick phase of breast stroke, any input will be great help.

[KCJbomberFTW]

Honestly still get 90% of my power from my arms
I can’t figure out the kick to save my life

[dhritirajyt]

Hi! I like breaststroke too! How far back can your elbows go when you pull? Is there a rule that they should not pass shoulders ? I seem to kick down instead of kick back though my intention is to kick back. As a result, I swim somewhat up hill down hill instead of forward. What do you think I can do to fix this?

[miles]

Are you supposed to generate power during the scoop portion or just during the scull? It looks like just the scull but I’m not too sure.

[edwinleong]

Narrow pull vs wide pull, which is better?

[The_Stardust_Reaper]

and my stupid highschool coach wanted my feet to not touch

Hi Derek,

How should I focus on keeping my elbows high during the pull? Next, you mention the momentum from the head; should I let the head lay down or snap it down using my core and neck?

I am mainly looking to increase my stroke rate and swim correctly.

Hey Derek! I am Vishal and I am challenging myself to learn swimming in 2weeks. Anyway I only know how to float in shallow and I really want to learn how to float in the deepened so I was wondering if I could get any tips from you😊

[ahmedtolba]

Make same for the rest 3 swimming types.

[rileygshep]

Do I need to bend my wrists in breaststroke like I do in freestyle?

[lokeshjain]

Hi Derek, not related to breaststroke but I used to be able to swim underwater after push-offs as long as I wanted but now as soon as I do my first dolphin kick, my body floats up and is slowing me down, please help

This stroke is easy to learn, but insanely hard to master.
