Usually when beginners learn breaststroke, leg movements can be subdivided into four parts, namely, closing legs, turning feet, kicking and straightening together. In fact, this is not very accurate, because the legs are separated to a certain extent at the same time when the legs are closed, and the kicks and legs are together at the same time. Until the soles of the feet and the inside of the calves feel the pressure of water, then speed up and exert force, that is, the speed of kicking is gradually accelerated and the strength is gradually increased to play the greatest role in drawing water. Generally, the leg movements of breaststroke are divided into: closing-turning-pedaling-clamping-drifting.

If the leg retraction is not in place, it is difficult to fully release the power of the hips at the back, and pushing the water is also ineffective. So, how do you count your legs in place? That is, your legs are closed on both sides of your hips, and your body is in a "W" shape. Some people put their legs behind their hips, and it's hard for your hips to exert strength! I don't think there's anything to say about breaststroke kicking. The main skill is to grasp the timing of kicking, so that you can find the feeling of kicking well. So I think the skill of breaststroke kick is actually a matter of the timing of breaststroke kick.

Keep your legs extended backwards. When your arm changes from the stroke stage to the recovery stage, your feet begin to recover to prepare for the next kick. Reach out and push the water: at the end of reaching out, push the water backwards with your feet. At this time, the arm is straight in front of the head, and the head is in a straight line with the body. In a complete stroke cycle of breaststroke arm and breaststroke kick, it is necessary to ensure that a certain part of the head comes out of the water. Only in the first stroke cycle of starting and turning, when doing a full stroke arm and a frog leg movement, the head can not get out of the water.

Naturally, you will fall badly, so it is normal to feel your body sinking after breathing. Therefore, in the beginner's stage, increasing kicking times and reducing breathing will help to maintain a good posture and avoid choking when the body is still underwater, causing psychological stress and fear of swimming.
