@swimsy.co: Breaststroke catch starts UNDER the water ↓ Many beginners begin the pull right at the surface — or even above it. That’s wrong ↓ • You create bubbles and lose grip on the water • No solid catch — hands slip instead of holding • Your body pops up instead of moving forward • The stroke becomes weak and inefficient In breaststroke, your hands must stay underwater to actually catch the water. How to do it correctly ✅ 1. Start in a streamlined position Arms fully extended forward Head relaxed and facing down 2. Initiate the movement Hands move out to the sides UNDER the water No splashing, no air Elbows bend and stay higher than the hands 3. The catch phase Forearms angle to “hold” the water Arms move in a semicircle, not straight down 4. Recovery Hands come together in front of the chest Then shoot forward into a streamlined position again 5. Glide Focus on clean water contact — no bubbles, no air.
