breakstroke kick variations

This is an old drill revisited due to a young swimmer posting a comment in the GoSwim app.  "Tori" posted that she just learned she had "breaststroker's knee" and was pretty unhappy about it.  

Breaststroker's knee is a common injury due to either an improper kick, or the overuse that comes with repetitive movements.  Simply put, doing the same thing over and over again can cause problems.

Why Do It:
While not all injuries are avoidable, educated athletes can listen to their bodies, and make small manipulations on their movements to vary which muscles and joint angles they work on a daily basis.  If you're swimming a lot of breaststroke, it'll be important to understand the chances of injury that come with that, and make adjustments before you experience knee pain.


How to Do It:
1.  What we're showing are more drastic angles, and when you're doing this while swimming, it may be very difficult for the naked eye to spot.  You can read more about that idea in this old article, Swimming Inside Your Skin.
2.  Now work your breaststroke kick with three different positions.  Narrow kick.  Normal kick.  Wide kick.
3.  Swim a set, or a day, or a week, using your normal breaststroke kick.  You'll want to swim mostly in this style since it's the way you'll be racing.
4.  Every few days, or when you start feeling pain, switch to a variation of your kick, either narrow or wide, for the next set, or the next day, or the next week.
5.  Continue to vary your kick to allow you to keep swimming breaststroke, rather than to risk overuse injuries.

How to Do It Really Well (the Fine Points):
This is always the tough question... if kicking too narrow or too wide slows you down, what's the point?  It's pretty simple actually, sometimes decisions you have to make as a swimmer have to do more with long-term performance than for what's best today.  By learning how to make small adjustments during swimming, or kick sets, you can not only avoid injury, but also, in the long term, build up the fine muscles around the joint to build a stronger overall unit.



breaststroke, kick

这是一种旧的钻重返由于年轻的游泳张贴评论在GoSwim应用程序。“托”,她只是知道她张贴“breaststroker的膝盖很不高兴”。


Breaststroker的膝上是一种常见的造成伤害,要么不正当的踢,或者是与过度重复动作。简单的说,做同一件事情一遍又一遍会导致一些问题。


为什么这样做:

虽然并不是所有的伤害都是可以避免的,受过教育的运动员可以听他们的身体,使小操纵他们的动态变化,肌肉和关节角,他们的工作时间是每天的基础。如果你在游泳很多蛙泳,它会有必要了解伤害的机会呢,使调整你经历膝关节疼痛之前。



如何做那件事。

1。我们展示什么是更剧烈的角度,以及当你如此做时,它可能会游泳的时候,是非常困难的肉眼看到。你可以读到更多关于这个想法在这座古老的文章,游弋你的皮肤。

2。你现在工作蛙式踢腿三个不同的位置。窄打腿。正常的脚。广泛的脚。

3。游泳一套,或一天或一个星期,用你的正常蛙式踢腿。你会想去游泳主要是在这种风格,因为它将会使你的赛车。

4。每隔几天,或当你开始感觉疼痛,开关的变动,要么踢腿的狭窄或宽,为一组,或第二天,或下星期。

5。继续改变你,让你踢蛙泳,而不是在游泳风险过度使用伤害。


怎么做得很好(精细点):

这一切都是令人困惑的问题……如果踢过窄或过宽减缓你的速度,你指的是什么?其实很简单,有时你不得不作出决定作为游泳运动员必须做更多的长期性能比什么是最好的今天。通过学习如何进行小的调整,或者踢腿集游泳时,您不仅可以避免受伤,而且从长远来看,建立美好的肌肉关节周围建立一个更强的总的单位。
