Using Your Head in Breaststroke #theraceclub

In breaststroke and butterfly swimming, utilizing your head can genuinely boost your speed. We instruct swimmers to pull their arms wide, elevate their bodies out of the water, and strike forward with maximum force. We like to compare this technique to a Tae Kwon Do black belt breaking a board with their forehead right after taking a breath. Observing top swimmers like Matt Fallon, you’ll notice they all leverage their head by striking forcefully and swiftly transitioning into the streamlined racing position.
