I use to belive that its impossible for my to complete 10 laps without stopping to catch my breath. In fact i went to the extend tat after 1 lap, i would stop for about 20 seconds to replenished enough air in my lungs before i move on with my next lap. So armed with my NARA goggles i dived into the water and carefully studied his strokes. After half hour of spying, I have come to a understanding of all my problems and the right way to swim breastroke. If you dont mind. I would like to share with you my findings in three easy points B,H,L,H. Breathing A very important conponent in all swimming strokes. But ple seems to get the wrong and hence mess up their oxygen level in their lungs. In breastrokes, its easy. Keyword is blow bubbles. Both from yr nose and yr mouth. This is also wad we know as breathing out. Try to breathe out everything and get ready for your next intake of air. Remember dont ever breathe in in water. Trust me, Dont. When your head is just coming out from the water, continue with the breathing out method. This is so to clear off any water water residue in your mouth or nose before yr intake of air. Before going in the water. remember to catch your breathe either from your mouth or nose or both. HEAD Yes, i noticed alot ple like to keep their face in a forward position. Its ok to do so when your are breathing. But its a taboo when ure are underwater. Try to face the floor rather than in a forward direction. This will give u less water resistence and hence increasing your speed. LEGS and HANDS Once you are in the water, the first thing u need to do is kick. Some ple tend to kick and paddle at the same time. Let me tell you. to kick and to paddle at the same time will only waste yr precious energy and expose yrself to more water resistent. So remmber kick first only. During yr kick, your hands must be in a forward direction(over your head) with palm facing together. This lesser expose yrself to water resistent and allow u to propelled much ahead. After completing your kick, straigthen yr legs. and start to paddle. Try to go as large circle as u can. and at the same time come out to breathe. So folks tats my findings. and after adopting this method. I have no problem in completing a 20 laps at one go with a impressive timing of 28 mins and 10 seconds. Try it, who know u might be the next Michael Phelps
