2 Secrets To Swimming Butterfly Like Michael Phelps and Caeleb Dressel

- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- As a kid growing up I used to study the best swimmers and what they did so that I could copy them . What I found is that when swimming butterfly, the great like Michael Phelps and Caeleb Dressel do something very interesting when they breathed and also with their chest when they pulled. These two simple things that can improve your butterfly I have dubbed the "chin lift" while breathing and the "chest dip" while pulling in this video. The techniques taught in this video when I first implemented them in my own stroke as a swimmer dropped my 100 yard butterfly down from a 1:01 to a :55 . Remember to be patient in your stroke when focusing on new aspects of your butterfly , I'm confident these techniques will help things click and you will truly fly!
I was the closest man in the world to the Olympic trials cut to not have it in 2020. Broke my heart. Thank you thank you kind sir. I will be using this shit at 6 am tomorrow to get ready for big ten champs. I want to go 53.5 and take home my state record for my club coach so bad as well as get the trials cut. Will post update when I do.
Impressive stuff , wish you all the best!
Shared with the hs swimmer who was too rigid with his fly and needed to “ see” what the forward motion should be like. His was more vertical instead of being horizontal/parallel with the water. That dolphin kick should help to get that dolphin motion..
Incredibly helpful video for how to smooth out the stroke. Good job!!!!
Glad the video was of use, thanks for watching and the kind words!
It’s painful when you sprint with this, but the outcomes are amazing! Took me a little while to grasp this technique, but I’ve got it down. I’m 13 and fly is my stroke. Hopefully I can go sub 1:00 for my 100m fly next meet! Thanks for the video!
Awesome! Hope your meet went well!
Awesome man!!! I’m getting there.
That's great to hear! How's your progress coming? Any questions?
Good teaching video. Thank you
Love it! thank you!
Well done
This is done very well! Please do the Breaststroke one too!
Thanks👏🏼👏🏼👍🏽
thank you!!! this is so helpful
This is fantastic. You're basically me 😅 analytical to the bone and slightly weird but you're smart and have a solution-based mentality that creates progressive training for something that is even new to you.
Haha appreciate the compliment, a big fan of swimming and since I was a kid have been studying it...thanks for watching!
@@siskatrainingsystems yeah, I started swimming two months ago and since I go deep into details like you do, I'm already at butterfly. I tried to do this hopping motion with my chin touching the surface of the water yesterday and then dipped my head and chest down to create that undulating movement, and I gotta say, it's really difficult, considering I can't breathe properly yet. I'm literally out of breath in 10 meters 😅
Fantastic progress! Well don't get ahead of yourself, master the simpler techniques first so that the more advanced will be easy...have a great vid on how to breathe on this channel...it can help you💪 keep up the great work
Gracias
Your welcome!
Great very useful thank you very much!!!
Muchas gracias :')
How's your progress coming? Any questions?
@@siskatrainingsystems Me ayudo mucho, me siento más cómodo nadando. Son los mejores ♥
¡Excelentemente bien ejemplificado Lucas! Practicar el movimiento fuera del agua me dió otra perspectiva de cómo coordinar todos los movimientos a la vez. Y por supuesto que practicaré primero ese ejercicio antes de nadar mi mariposa.
Saludos. 💦
Thank you!!
Good! Fine!
Please teach butterfly small technic
Thanks for the question , what do you mean by small technique? You mean more simple?
Please teach
@@alaparigal86 haha you have to be more specific...I would like to help , but I'm not sure what you are asking...try using Google translate
Ok
Nice moves man 😁...can u make a video on dolphin kick and drills to learn it? Thanks dude
Hahaha thanks for watching , good idea with the dolphin kick video ...will look to make that in the future 👌
@@siskatrainingsystems really like your style of teaching man. Two more requests, how to dive and flip turn. Will wait for your videos
@@whatsgoodyow3312 appreciate it ...may take some time before we get the exact video requests made, but we will be working on it ...I have a video on flip turns already on the channel, have a look!
@@siskatrainingsystems sweet I am going to do that
My 50m Fly is 40seconds but I'm 12 and fly is my weakest stroke
That's pretty fast especially if it's your weakest stroke 💪👊
@SAMI BURAZEROVIC 1 second difference with my time last meet😅
U will go places if u are studying the game like this young man
I don’t think you’re 12, you’re a god.
My doughter make 36 second in 50m. And she is only 10years...
Dolphin kick and I will tell the whole of algiers to subscribe!!
also tikimg of leg kick before throwing arms out
Focus on starting the movement with your chest and the legs will follow and tell you when to put power
2:35
Work on that early vertical Forearm man!!!!
Thanks for watching ! Not sure exactly what you mean, what part of the video are you talking about?
@@siskatrainingsystems he's talking about the hands movement of yours!
swim emgkand say push chin but it isnt its a lift
Exactly!
nice dance lol
You did a difefrent motion in the pool then on land. In the pool you basically did butterfly body/kick with the chin up the whole time which is not only damn near impossible but a good way to mess up your spine.
I'm convinced that nobody on youtube actually knows how to teach Butterfly :-/
Don't be so negative man, the point of the land demonstration was to show the rhythm , of course it's different in the water...copy that motion on land and in the water the two beat kick will develop, I've had great success with many swimmers trying to learn butterfly this way...
@@siskatrainingsystems I try not to, I'm just a realist. I appologise if i come across as negative.
I'm a swimming teacher myself and I'm sick of seeing people throw their money away to people who haven't got a clue and practices that simply don't work.
I'm not saying yours don't by the way .
If you could send a video of one of your students doing fly that would be great!
@@tomatomb8704 no worries , I see the passion coming through and that's great! This vid is more geared towards competitive swimmers and not so much people learning to swim butterfly for the first time, though complete newbies can gain from this video as well...for those new to butterfly I would suggest watching from 5:30 in this video...there you will also see one of my clients ... keeping it simple is the key ...chest down but goes up ...then repeat and repeat some more ..once you catch that rhythm slowly start adding the arms within the same rhythm...all the best!
Looks kind of un-natural to use so much energy with the arms to pull your body out of the water and then kick. Should it be the kick to propel you out of the water?
Exactly the arms have nothing to do with pulling the arms out of the water it's the undulation of the body that causes all this and the arms and legs just follow ..
