This video was presented to the viewer as an online reference and a free example in order to provide a visual explanation of how to swim butterfly. If you just started learning this stroke, you might need some pointers to make the process a little bit easier.

First of all, there are two kicks while swimming butterfly: the first kick occurs during the catch phase and the other one during the finish. Make sure to keep legs together and move both arms at the same time. Second kick is usually performed stronger in order to help arms fly above the water.

Second of all, keep in mind that butterfly is the hardest stroke in swimming and requires power and also good flexibility in shoulders. Work on your biceps, triceps, abs, and lower body (squads and jumps) as well as increase flexibility.
