Breaststroke Underwater Pull - 4 Ways

Hey guys! Today I have four styles of breaststroke underwater pulls that vary from beginner to advanced. For more advanced swimmers, FINA allows one dolphin kick during the underwater pull, so I’ll show you a few ways you can incorporate it.

Which way is better for sprinting and which way is better for long swimming?

[@Z__K217]

Greetings. Thanks for making this - gave me some context and help. Thanks !

[@SecretAngel20]

Beautiful swimming style. So smooth and effortless.

[@josealqueres]

Hey! Off-topic question here: do you swim on open water? Thoughts? Keep up with the amazing job with the videos.

[@madamegaga2010]

really great job on the video!

[@susandemontigny2882]

I love your suit! Looks fantastic!

[@rybak04]

Great upload will try this!

[@patandkate87]

I did like the 4 options, I do the simultaneous pull down and kick, I think I will try the kick first then pull down.

[@sailorgroom3976]

This video was very helpful. And I love your suit

[@SwimLifeGuru]

Pro-swimmer who loves a good analysis

Hmm, I have been trying to figure out which pull/dolphin kick method works best. The last version is what works best for me. My guess is that the arm pull initiates the body wave so you get a longer more powerful whip action/body wave than if you kick first and then pull. I also have to remind myself to whip down and up for best results. I don't swim breast stroke though, I am using it for over arm side stroke, where I do flip turns, and it is faster than breast stroke and the combat swim... Yea, I am different...

[@dianaw5907]

Can you do a review on your Jolyn suit. I've been contemplating on getting one and I'm just not quite sure

[@SwimLifeGuru]

Definitely! I just got them (a bikini and this onesie) so it might not come for a few weeks. :)

[@dianaw5907]

They were having a trunk show in my town and i caved and bought one. I got the same onesie but in a blue pattern and i love it so far!

[@Benji-ds9df]

i do the the dolphin kick first then the pull, i didn t know that it is legal to do just the dolphin kick.
Thanks!😘

[@DragNetJoe]

There was a rule change that now allows you to do the dolphin kick anytime before the first breaststroke kick. There is a lot of variation. some early some late.

[@scottpaula8282]

I already was a die hard breaststroker and knew the pills just needed little improvement. Big help. I always use number 4.

[@brookeshinnick]

I hate breaststroke, I love fly, so when I do breaststroke my pullout helps me a lot. And what team are you on.

[@ROBOTCHICKENTATERS]

What I think after the turn is "a thousand one a thousand 2". My coach said that to me and its always stuck with me.

[@SwimLifeGuru]

👍🏻 That's a good technique too! 😋

[@brookeshinnick]

What team are you on?

[@evanchaney7273]

I do #4

[@dantheman6888]

I do a dolphin kick then stroke, but I haven't swam in a long time.

[@deadlydingers]

SwimLifeGuru are you on the Zone team!

[@SwimLifeGuru]

I was on the 2013 and 2015 Zone teams. :)

[@afirwin1882]

can you do a dryland routine video?

[@SwimLifeGuru]

Possibly... ;)

[@therambunctioustype825]

Man I wish I can try this trick, but it's hurricane season in Florida! ;_;

[@chloewatson8275]

i have a problem where ive already floated back up to the top by the time im supposed to do my breaststroke kick

[@SwimLifeGuru]

You might not be pushing off deep enough, and/or maybe angling upward when you push off. Hope this helps! :)

[@fortuneseoul6741]

No. 3

[@ayf7033]

My problem is my leg is sinking.. I don't know why.. I have already faced down tho

[@madelinepotter5063]

I have been told to do 1# by swimer

[@hehno1]

doesn't that string on the back of your suit create drag ?

[@SwimLifeGuru]

Yup, which is why I only wear this suit for practice and not swim meets. :)

[@hehno1]

[@elizabethwalsh116]

[@coki50000ify]

PERFECT　SWIM!

[@thanatatf16osuwan57]

Good body

[@user-on9un4sr6m]

I thought I would get disqualified if I did more than one dolphin kick in the underwater breastroke movement. in hong Kong we would get disqualified. @swimlifeguru

[@calebl1004]

You would get disqualified. This video just shows a few different ways to add in that one breaststroke kick. It's really about just seeing what works for you.

[@SwimLifeGuru]

+Felice Chan Yep, you would definitely get disqualified. According to FINA rules, only one dolfin kick is allowed off the start and each wall.

[@brookeshinnick]

You can only have one fly kick
