Hey, guys! I hope you read my older posts about breaststroke because this one is a bit more complicated than my older ones. I also recommend that you read my previous posts because this is the rather more advanced one. Although taking a breath may seem easy, it's quite difficult to do with all the coordination required. I haven't been writing for a really long time, I took a really long blog break. Sorry about that, guys, I'll make sure that I'll keep updating for a period of time. Because breaststroke is one of the most basic swim strokes, I suggest that you read the breaststroke swim tips before you advance to the other strokes. Learning breastsroke breathing won't consume much of your time; the hands are way more complicated but to be more efficient with your breath, you should read this post.
There are a lot of mistakes done in breaststroke, and a teeny bit could cause your whole game so carefully examine your every step, thinking where you were wrong and how you could improve your stroke. That is what I am here for; to tell you, help you. My tips should work on average swimmers; they helped me improve my time by more than five seconds to read and listen carefully. If there are any tips you would like to add, the comment box is asleep, so please wake it up. Also please give me tips that I could put in my next post, and suggest this to your friends.
Always intend to keep your head above the water, so you could steal a quick breath and do it effectively. Inhale through your mouth and don't exhale too quickly; you'll be begging for another breath; a very tiring swim is bad for long courses. Don't lift your head too high when breathing, it'll consume time. You should breathe gradually, it is less energy consuming and it's quicker. When your hands sweep, allow your head to go up and when it starts to grab, exhale; put your head under the water. Never breathe too early or too late. The perfect time is when your hands sweep wide.
