How do you swim faster in breaststroke?

Clause.

First, because the first factor in breaststroke is the resistance of the waterThe body is in the water, if you want the body to move forward quickly, you must minimize the resistance of the water, just like humans in the process of running, reduce the air resistance, in order to make people run faster.

Breaststroke is a kind of body facing the water facing forward swimming posture, so the force area is larger, the formation of resistance will be greater, if you want to swim fast, you must reduce the area of the body in contact with the water, so as to reduce the resistance of the water to the human body.

Clause. Second, if the breaststroke technique is not perfect, or immature or wrong movements, it will lead to a decrease in the speed of the swimmer, adjust the force area of the body and the water, at that time in the process of paddling with both hands, to form the same as the leg kicking action, the upper body of the person out of the water, there will be a short float, many people in this short pause process, there is no coherent progress, affecting the speed of the breaststroke.

Arm movements:

1. External drawing. Extend your hands forward with your palms tilted about 45 degrees (little thumb up). Draw both hands outwards and backwards at the same time, then bend your arms backwards and stroke downwards.

2. Internal drawing. The palm of the hand turns from the outside to the inside, the hand drives the forearm to accelerate the inward stroke, the hand is from the bottom to the top and close together in front of the chest (the hand is high and the elbow is low, the elbow is under the shoulder), and the hand is stretched forward.

3. Stretch forward. Extend your hands forward (elbow straight).

It should be noted that the outer stroke is relaxed, the inner stroke is forced, accelerated and completed, and the forward extension is positive.

1. The complete coordination of breaststroke: raise your head to breathe when you stroke your hands outward, lower your head and hold your breath a little when you pad inward with both hands, and kick your legs and exhale when you stretch your hands forward over your head.

Leg movements: 1Leg tuck: Bend the knees and tuck, bring the heel closer to the hip, and hide the calf behind the thigh to slowly tuck, which can reduce resistance. At the end of the leg tuck, the knees are shoulder-width apart, the calves are perpendicular to the water, and the feet are near the water.

2. Turn your feet: The distance between your feet is greater than the distance between your knees, your feet are turned out, your toes are facing outward, your feet are facing the sky, and your calves and the inside of your feet are aligned with the water, like the English letter "W".

3.Kicking the water: In fact, it is the process of straightening the legs (hip flexion, knee extension), from the waist, abdomen and thighs at the same time, with the calf and the inside of the foot at the same time to kick the water, first outward, backward, downward, and then inward, upwards to push the water, just like drawing half a circle.

Pushing outwards and holding water inwards is done consecutively, that is, with a strap. When the water is finished, the legs are together and straight, and the feet are turned inward, with the toes facing each other. The speed of pedaling should not be too violent, but accelerate the pedaling from slow to fast, and the speed of pedaling is fastest when the two legs are stretched straight together.

4.Stop: Legs together and straightened after a short glide (1-2 seconds).

The most important thing is to have a lot of strength and a good coordination of body parts! ☆

The maximum water resistance of breaststroke comes from the leg tucking action, which can reduce the water resistance and increase the breaststroke speed. Breaststroke leg retraction first retract the thigh, then retract the calf, retract the thigh amplitude should be small, avoid forming an angle with the body, it is best to keep straight with the body, when retracting the calf, you need to pay attention to the calf out of the thigh directly behind, can not be separated too early, increase the water area.

Breaststroke: Breaststroke is a swimming style that mimics the swimming movements of a frog. When breaststroke, swimmers can easily observe whether there are obstacles in front of them and avoid hitting them.

Breaststroke is one of the competitive swimming styles. The human body lies prone on the water, with both arms bent and stroked down in front of the chest symmetrically straight, and the legs are symmetrically bent and stretched to hold the water, like a frog swimming in the water. Breaststroke is labor-saving, easy to last, and has great practical value, and is often used in fishing and hunting, swimming, rescue, water transportation, etc., and at the same time, it is also a learning project for beginners in swimming.

When the two arms are stretched forward, the palms are close together, the two arms form a triangle, and the head is hidden between the arms, which will greatly reduce the water resistance, and the propulsion loss speed of the water will be greatly reduced, and the body will swim quickly like an arrow.

The largest swimming power in breaststroke is the frog leg, and the frog leg technique has three steps: pushing, clamping, and retracting. When pushing, let the soles of your feet fully face the water, and when facing the water, the soles of your feet should face backwards, so that you can press your legs backwards in alignment with the water to produce the propulsion force to swim forward.

The pedal and the clamp should be completed coherently, the calf is pushed back, the clamp is the force adduction, the thigh is clamped inward, and finally the legs are together, and the soles of the feet are parallel to the water surface. The main purpose of leg tucking is to reduce the area facing the water in front of the face, thereby reducing drag. When thighs are tucked, they should not exceed the crotch, and at the same time, the timing of the leg is very important, and the leg is quietly tucked while the arm is between the elbows.

In short, the speed of the breaststroke depends on two aspects, one is to increase the propulsion, and the other is to reduce the drag and allow the thrust to be better extended. Therefore, if you want to improve the breaststroke speed, on the one hand, you must enhance the ability to push the legs with the main propulsion force**, and on the other hand, you should pay attention to reducing the resistance of the upper limbs and when gliding, so that the power output is not hindered.

Here's how to swim fast breaststroke:

When you start to close your legs, your legs will naturally be lowered with the inhalation action, and your knees will gradually be separated, your lower legs will move forward, and your feet will be relaxed, and your heels will be closer to your hips. The strength should be small when the legs are closed, and the feet and calves should be closed in the projection section of the thighs to reduce the resistance.

After the leg tuck is completed, the thighs are at an angle of about 120-140 degrees to the torso, and the inside of the knees is about the same width as the hip joint. The angle between the thighs and the calves is about 40-45 angles, and the calves are as vertical as possible, so that you can be prepared for flipping and kicking.

At the end of the leg tuck, the foot is still close to the hips, at this time, the knee joint is buckled inward, and the feet are turned outward at the same time, so that the foot and the inside of the calf are in the direction of the water, which can increase the water surface and actively prepare the thighs to exert more strength.

Leg tucking, foot flipping, and kicking the water are a continuous and complete action process. The correct foot flip action starts before the leg is closed, and is completed before the kicking begins. If the leg stagnates slightly after turning the foot, it will disrupt the coherence of the movement and increase the resistance.

Kicking the water should be exerted from the thighs, first extending the hip joint, then doing the action of kicking the water backwards, followed by extending the knee joint and ankle joint.

The action of kicking the water is a continuous and complete action, except that the water is kicked first, and the water is clamped last. In fact, in the flip movement, the knees are inward and the feet are outward, which is the only direction for the water to be pinched.

Breaststroke Introduction:

The word breaststroke means chest stroke or plunge in English. As early as 2000-4000 years ago, there were similar swimming postures in China, Rome, and Egypt. In Japan, it is called hirai swimming.

This swimming position has always been called breaststroke in China because it lies prone on the surface of the water, and the strokes and kicks resemble a frog swimming in the water. When swimming breaststroke, the body posture is relatively stable, the water support area is large, the action is labor-saving, the breathing is convenient, and it can last, which is suitable for long-term and long-distance swimming.

Swimming in this posture is easy to observe the target, the action is hidden, the sound is small, and the practical value is great, and it has been widely used in fishing and hunting, water transportation, swimming, rescue and other aspects for a long time. The origin of breaststroke is variously discussed.
